change photo on licence and get 5 years more before medical 
I told him that ROG, he said it sounds dodgy and wants to do it “by the book”. What I was referring to is in the medical I had they ask you to read the bottom line on the chart and that was really it, is it true you now have to go and see the optician as part of the medical?

Why wouldn’t he get them both done together?
If he needs to wear glasses or contacts to pass the eyesight test then he will need to visit his opticians as well as the medical form now asks a specific question about the prescription which the doctor will not know. The whole medical and eyesight can be done by a doctor but only if no glasses or contacts are worn.
This is the actual INF4D.
Tells you all you need to know.
