The person concerned has the required number of PRSI contributions paid to qualify for the treatment benefits scheme and is qualified for life. According to the Department's records, he received a free optical examination and a contribution towards the cost of Optical appliances in January 2020.
I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy
