Vision insurance
Encourages you to see an eye doctor regularly by paying all or some of the cost for eye exams, frames and lenses
One of the best ways to maintain healthy eyes is to visit the eye doctor regularly. This benefit can make those visits less costly and more convenient. We partnered with a vision network, VSP®, so you can choose from over 40,000 providers at 108,000 access points, including 1,800 retail locations.
What it does
Pays for eye exams, frames and lenses. Check with your benefits representative for your company’s specific plan details.
How it works
Go to one of the VSP® member locations and this benefit will pay for your eye exam and many of the glasses and lenses available, if you need them. You can use any provider but going in-network will maximize savings.
What it doesn't do
Pay for certain types of special lenses or eye surgery.
Protection you have to see to believe
The cost of an eye exam can run well over $100 when conducted by an ophthalmologist in a clinic or an office.1
