Insurance: Making Eye Care Affordable for You
Medical Insurance vs. Vision Insurance
Many people are unsure whether their eye exams or treatments fall under medical or vision insurance, but understanding the difference can help maximize your benefits. Vision insurance typically covers routine eye care. On the other hand, medical insurance applies when eye care is related to a medical condition rather than routine vision needs.
If you’re unsure which type of insurance applies to your visit, our team is here to help—we’ll verify your coverage and explain your benefits before your appointment to ensure you receive the best care at the most affordable cost.

FAQs About Vision Insurance Plans
Does vision insurance cover all eyewear costs?
Most vision plans offer an allowance toward frames and lenses but may require out-of-pocket costs for premium lens features such as anti-glare coatings, progressive lenses, and Transitions® lenses.
Can I use my vision insurance and medical insurance together?
It depends on your visit! If your exam is for routine vision correction, vision insurance applies. If your visit is for a medical issue like an eye infection or disease, your medical insurance may be used instead.

Some plans offer benefits for both, while others require you to choose between glasses or contacts for the year. We can check your plan and let you know your options!
