Vision
What you need to know
Vision coverage for non-Medicare eligible and Medicare-eligible retirees and covered dependents is optional and requires an additional monthly premium to the Fund.
Highlights
You can receive routine vision benefits through EyeMed Vision Care. Routine vision services and materials are provided at little to no cost as long as you visit an in-network provider. If you visit an out-of-network provider, you will be responsible for the full cost of vision services. You may submit a claim, along with an itemized bill, to the Fund Office for reimbursement if you receive out-of-network care.
The Plan covers services once every 12 months for you and your covered dependents. Covered services include:
- Comprehensive eye exam
- Standard glass or plastic eyeglass lenses
- Frames from the in-network provider inventory
- Contact lenses (materials, fittings, and evaluations only)
For a full list of vision expenses, refer to your Plan Documents.
