Vision Care and Medical Eye Care Are Different
Many patients are surprised to learn that eye care services may be billed differently depending on the reason for the appointment.
Vision Insurance
Vision insurance typically helps cover routine eye care and vision correction services. These plans often include benefits for annual eye exams, glasses, and contact lenses.
Medical Insurance
Medical insurance is used to diagnose, monitor, or treat eye health conditions and symptoms. This may include dry eye disease, glaucoma, diabetes-related eye care, infections, allergies, and other medical concerns.
