Eyewear Insurance Coverage
Vision Insurance Filing
Visits involving “medical” problems such as headaches, allergies, conjunctivitis, dry eye, ocular injuries, cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, sudden pain, vision loss, or monitoring for ocular side effects of chronic diseases such as diabetes or hypertension fall under your medical insurance coverage, not your “vision” plan. “Vision” plans cover eye wellness exams that include refractions and routine, non-medical eye exams.
