Insurance

The cost of routine eye exams and prescription eyewear can be of real concern, especially for large families. In many cases, vision insurance can lower these annual expenses.

A vision insurance policy is not the same as health insurance. Regular health insurance plans protect you against financial losses due to unexpected eye injuries or disease. Vision insurance, on the other hand, is a wellness benefit designed to provide routine eye care, prescription eyewear and other vision-related services at a reduced cost.

Because we provide both medical and routine eye care, we accept a number of insurance plans to help cover the cost depending on your individual needs. Here are just some of the plans that we accept:

We accept: Vision Service Plan (VSP), Medical Eye Services (MES), Tricare, Medicare, Eyemed and most PPO medical plans.

If you have questions about your insurance please be sure and ask. Our staff is also always available to answer any questions regarding your benefits.
