What is the coverage for eyeglasses and contact lenses?

Asked 2 years ago
VSP typically provides coverage for both eyeglasses and contact lenses as part of their vision care plans, although specific benefits may vary based on the chosen plan and individual circumstances. For many members, VSP covers a comprehensive eye exam, which is crucial in determining any vision issues and the appropriate corrective measures. When it comes to eyeglasses, VSP commonly offers coverage for prescription lenses and a selection of frames, which may include the latest styles and brands, often up to a certain dollar amount or through a co-pay system. As for contact lenses, VSP usually allows for a choice between glasses or contact lenses in a given benefit cycle. This often includes a fitting fee, necessary for ensuring that the contact lenses are comfortable and appropriate for the wearer. A specific allowance may be provided for the purchase of contacts, which can cover a range of lens types, including daily wear, extended wear, and specialty lenses, depending on the member's needs. To get the most accurate and detailed information regarding specific coverage, including any limitations or exclusions, it is advisable for members to check the current web page associated with VSP or consult their plan documents to ensure they understand their individual benefits.
