Each vision benefits plan has it pros and cons. Each patient must educate themselves and decide which plan is right for them. Vision Service Plan seeks to provide high-quality, cost-effective eyecare benefits.

What Vision Service Plan patients need to know before coming to Valuvision
There are a few key things vision care patients using the VSP insurance plan need to know before coming to Valuvision or any vision care provider:

• Each patient must take the responsibility to be educated on what their plan covers. This is very important. Many patients come for their initial examination not knowing what their individual coverage allows them. This slows the patient's experience as the coverage must be looked up in some cases, due to the many plan options available.
   
• Most insurance plans do not provide coverage which gives sufficient allowance for the full vision care needs of the patient. Most plans provide for one eye exam each year and some combinations of options for eyeglass lens and frame and/or contact lens. Another way to state this is: Most insurance plans only provide coverage for the bare necessities of vision care and eye care.

Realistic coverage expectations for Vision Service Plan

• Eye Exam - a comprehensive eye exam that focuses on your eyes and overall wellness
• Eyewear:
  • Prescription Glasses
    • Frame - Allowance for a wide selection of frames and a discount on any amount over your allowance
    • Lenses – Fully covered base lens (single vision, bifocal, trifocal lenses)
    • Lens Options – Discounts on lens options, including progressive lenses, Transitions® lenses, anti-reflective coating, scratch-resistant coating, and UV protection
  • Contacts (Instead of Glasses):
    • Allowance for a contact lens exam (fitting and evaluation) and contacts
    • Large selection of contact lens brands

  • Discounts on additional pairs of glasses and sunglasses

It is very important to have both eyeglasses and contact lenses if you wear contacts. Overuse and improper use of contact lenses can lead to eye infection and poor eye health.

Again, it is very important to own a set of quality eyeglasses and contacts. Vision Service Plan, unlike many other vision benefit plans, do offer many additional discount options for products or services such as contact lens evaluations and fittings, designer glasses, transition lenses and anti-reflective coatings on lenses. However, it is important to recognize there may still be be an additional expense that Vision Service Plan insurance will not cover depending on individual circumstances.
