Vision Plan Highlights
The vision plan helps you save money on annual eye exams, glasses and contact lenses.
The plan pays benefits for both in-network and out-of-network services. However, you’ll receive maximum value from your vision benefits when you choose network providers.
If you see a network provider, you’ll pay a copay for most services. If you receive care outside the network, you must pay the full cost and file a claim to be reimbursed for a portion of your costs.
Below is an overview of the benefits. Click here for specific plan details.
