What Does Vision Insurance Cover?

  • Eye Exams – To begin with, vision insurance helps cover the cost of routine eye exams—depending on your policy and your eye care provider, the cost of the appointment may be covered in full or in part. Regular eye exams are important because they allow you and your care team to track changes in your vision and identify any causes for concern as early as possible.
  • Prescription Lenses – Vision insurance also helps cover the cost of prescription lenses, which in most cases includes both glasses and contacts. Most people who use corrective lenses need to update their prescription every so often, and this coverage helps pay for the cost of the new set.
  • Corrective Surgery – Some vision insurance plans also offer coverage for corrective eye surgery. If you are interested in surgically correcting your vision instead of continuing to use glasses or contacts, we encourage you to reach out to our team so we can help you find a plan with this type of coverage. If your vision care requires eye surgery for any reason, you can turn to us for help in finding the best plan for your needs.
