Understanding Your Insurance: Vision vs. Medical

Whether you need a routine vision exam or treatment for an eye health concern, we’ll help you use the right plan — and make sure you get the care you need.
What’s the Difference Between Vision and Medical Insurance
| Vision Insurance | Medical Insurance |
|---|---|
| Covers routine eye exams | Covers eye health problems |
| Helps with glasses or contact lens costs | Covers conditions like diabetes, dry eye, or infections |
| Often used once per year | Used as needed for medical treatment or diagnosis |
Uses of Vision Insurance
Vision plans cover routine eye exams, which check your prescription and overall eye health. They also typically help with the cost of:
- Glasses and lenses
- Contact lens fittings
- Optional lens upgrades (anti-reflective, Transitions, etc.)
