Selecting a vision plan
If you are eligible for SEBB benefits, vision coverage is included for you and your eligible dependents; your employer pays the premium. You and any enrolled dependents must be enrolled in the same vision plan.
Before you select a vision plan, check with the plan to see if your vision provider is in the plan’s network. You can call the vision plan’s customer service.

How do the vision plans compare?
Before you enroll in a vision plan, use the tables below to get the details you need to help you decide or use the printable Vision benefits comparison.
For information on specific benefits and exclusions, refer to the vision plan’s certificate of coverage or contact the plan directly. The figures listed below show what you pay for in-network coverage, with the amount up to which you would be reimbursed for out-of-network services in parentheses. If anything in these charts conflicts with the plan’s certificate of coverage (COC), the COC takes precedence.

Preauthorization criteria
Preauthorization is when you seek approval from your health plan for coverage of specific services, supplies, or drugs before receiving them. Some services or treatments (except emergencies) may require preauthorization before the plan pays for them. Preauthorization is not a guarantee, however, that your plan will pay for those services, supplies, or drugs.
These criteria do not imply or guarantee approval. Please check with your plan to ensure coverage. Preauthorization requirements are only valid for the month published. They may have changed from previous months and may change in future months.
