VHI Claim or Tax back?

[romuse]

Hi...read all the thread but probably still didn't get it

My question is as follow:
let's say I made the following claims to VHI
1- Optical expenses (glaces and visit) = 500 Euro (VHI returns 100 euro) so the extra is: 400 euro

2- GP visit 55, (VHI returns 25 euro) so the extra is 30 euro

my question is:
regarding revenue (Tax) what should I claim back?
Option 1: nothing as I have claimed using VHI---> so 0
Option 2: Claim the difference (extra) 400 + 30 = 430 for tax back ?

thanks Guys for the help and reply

Option 2 (a) - 30 euro only as there is no tax relief on routine ophthalmic treatment (sight testing, provision and maintenance of glasses and contact lenses). This is stated on the MED1 form.
