What is covered with vision insurance?
There are various vision plans that are available across the area of Chesapeake, VA, and most of them will vary as to what they will cover in full, what they will partially cover, and what they will not cover. Below is a simple list of the covered costs for most vision insurance plans used today:
- The cost of an annual eye examination
- The cost of contact lenses or prescription eyeglasses
- Discounted rates of vision correction services including PRK and LASIK
- Reduced cost or coverage for specialty lenses for prescription eyeglasses, including anti-reflective coatings, photochromatic lenses, or progressive lenses
How do I know what coverage exists in my plan?
First and foremost, many patients can refer to the handbook they received when they signed up for their vision insurance, either through the government, their workplace, or private organizations. Each vision plan varies, making it difficult to determine the benefits available to a patient. Individuals who visit Southside Eye Care can provide our front office team with their vision insurance plan information, and we can help make sense of the benefits you can take full advantage of! Depending on the plan, patients may receive discounted rates or partial coverage of many common vision expenses.
