In Australia, you can go to an optometrist and get your eyes checked 'for free' every two years under our public health system. The prescription is free also. All you pay for is the frames which were $39.
When I say free, it's not an out of pocket expense for the consultation etc, but it is built into our tax system. Kids also get up to $1000 of 'free' dental work too. Each year. Each child.
