How It Works 

  • Convenient Network Locations — A national network of credentialed preferred providers throughout the 50 states.
  • Freedom of Choice — Access to care through either our network of independent, private practice doctors (optometrists and ophthalmologists) or select retail partners.

The plan offers a network of providers that service your eye-care needs with only a modest member copayment shown in the Schedule of Benefits.

Out-of-network benefits

The out-of-network benefit allows you to select any provider and reimburses a fixed dollar amount based on the schedule shown for the out-of-network services*.

You will receive the greatest value and maximize your benefit dollars if you select a provider who participates in the network. However, you may choose an out-of-network provider, but you must pay the provider directly for all charges and then submit a claim for reimbursement.

*This is not a contract: This is a benefits highlights summary. All benefits are subject to the provisions and exclusions of the master contract.
