Common Questions About Vision Insurance Coverage
What Does Vision Insurance Typically Cover?
Most vision plans include:
- One comprehensive eye exam per year
- Coverage or discounts on eyeglasses or contact lenses
- Access to in-network providers and frame selections
Coverage can vary depending on your specific plan, so we’ll always help you verify what’s included before your visit.
What’s The Difference Between Vision & Medical Insurance?
Vision insurance covers routine eye exams, glasses, and contacts. Medical insurance is used for visits involving medical concerns, like eye infections, injuries, dry eye, or monitoring conditions such as glaucoma or diabetes.
If both apply during your visit, we’ll help determine how to coordinate your benefits for the best coverage.
Can I Use Vision Insurance for Contact Lenses?
Yes! Most vision plans offer an allowance for either glasses or contact lenses. That benefit is typically available once per calendar year. We’ll walk you through your lens options and help you use your benefit to its fullest.
