With the vision benefit, you'll have access to a nationwide network of providers with the freedom to see any participating vision provider. You will have access to an annual routine eye exam through a vision provider and an allowance toward eyeglasses (frame and lenses) or contacts for vision correction, not related to cataract surgery.
- A routine eye exam once every 12 months with a $0 copay
- $130 allowance toward eyeglasses (frames and lenses), every 24 months
- $175 allowance toward contact lenses instead of eyeglasses, every 24 months
- When scheduling your appointment, make sure your vision and eyewear provider(s) will bill the UnitedHealthcare medical plan before receiving routine vision services (routine eye exam and eyeglasses or contact lenses)
- Out-of-network providers may require you to pay upfront and submit a reimbursement claim to UHC.
The network is UnitedHealthcare Medical Network with information on your UnitedHealthcare member ID card.
Some providers may ask you to present a different ID card for your vision benefits. Your vision benefits are part of your medical plan and the same ID card you utilize at a hospital, doctors office, or pharmacy is what you will present to the vision provider. If they have questions, they may call the number on your ID card.
You have the flexibility to use an out of network provider. If the provider does not accept insurance plans or refuses to bill UnitedHealthcare, you may pay out of pocket and request reimbursement. You will be reimbursed the full amount paid up to the allowance amount.
