Vision Plans

The Vision Care Plan is designed to encourage you to maintain your vision through regular exams and to help with expenses for prescription glasses and contact lenses. Your Vision Care Plan is administered by EyeMed. With this voluntary plan, you may use in or out-of-network providers, but the level of benefit is higher when you receive care from a network provider. A listing of network providers can be found at www.eyemed.com or by calling EyeMed directly at 844‑409‑3401.

Once your benefit is effective, visit www.eyemed.com for details.

Effective 2023, vision exams are no longer covered under the medical plan unless they are for a medically necessary treatment of the eye.

For more information, including plan limitations, exclusions, and discounted services; please refer to the Vision Care summary plan description by visiting www.AskPhin.com. Your provider will verify eligibility of benefits. Visit visit www.eyemed.com for details.
