More than 59,000 people are receiving PIP or ADP for over 45 different eye conditions.
People with eyesight issues such as a visual impairment, sight loss or high myopia could be entitled to extra financial support through Personal Independence Payment or Adult Disability Payment . The latest figures from the Department for Work and Pensions show that at the end of April, some 59,085 people were receiving payments of up to £184.30 each week through PIP, including 2,995 living in Scotland.
Visual conditions supported through PIP and ADP The following list is provided by the DWP and consists of the main eye conditions for which people are claiming PIP. This is recorded at the time of assessment. It's important to be aware that no two conditions can be compared side-by-side and you are assessed for PIP and ADP on how your condition affects you.
Below is an overview of PIP and ADP. Even though new claims for PIP have been replaced in Scotland by ADP, it shares most of the same eligibility criteria. Full guidance on ADP can be found on the MYGOV.SCOT website here. How are PIP and ADP paid? PIP and ADP are usually paid every four weeks unless you are terminally ill, in which case it is paid weekly. It will be paid directly into your bank, building society or credit union account. ADP is paid at the same rates as PIP.
