Let's Talk About Insurance
Insurance has always been confusing, especially when it comes to eye care. It is possible you may have Vision Insurance in addition to your Medical Insurance.
We accept two insurance types:
Vision Insurance
Medical Insurance
How are they different?
Vision insurance is designed to pay towards a comprehensive “routine” eye examination that checks for, but finds no medical problem.
Medical insurance pays towards eye care visits that are medical in nature. Examples include: infections, floaters/flashes, loss of vision, glaucoma, cataracts, diabetes and many more.
What do they pay for?
Determining your eyeglass prescription is included in a comprehensive exam.
Vision insurance often pays for a portion of eyeglasses or contacts.
When there is a medical diagnosis like diabetes, cataracts, or the examples above, we are required to submit the exam to medical, not vision insurance.
What don't they pay for?
Most vision insurances do not pay towards a contact lens fitting, but they may offer a discount for these services.
In most cases, a comprehensive examination that is medical in nature does not pay for an eyeglass prescription.
