229. To ask the Minister for Health if he will request the HSE to reverse its decision to discontinue full reimbursements for the cost of eye tests and glasses for children with Down's syndrome; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that over 50% of children with Down's syndrome will require glasses during their lives; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible.
