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 (COC) 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 COC, the COC takes precedence.

Vision benefits for adults (19 and older)

Lens enhancements

Contact lenses (instead of glasses)

Conventional contact lenses, with proper care and cleaning, can be used for longer periods of time, from one month to up to one year. Disposable contact lenses are single-use lenses and are removed and discarded after a determined period of time, typically at the end of each day or week.

EyeMed members may use both their $150 contact lens allowance and $150 frame allowance during the same visit. Your provider will offer a 20% discount on lenses for your frames.

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.
