What to Expect with Vision Care
Below is the features of the VSP. Your vision frame and contact lens allowance is increasing for 2025 from $175 to $200.
While you have a choice of what provider to see, we recommend finding an in-network provider to maximize your benefit.
Under the plan, when you select an out-of-network provider the benefits are limited. For out-of-network reimbursement, you pay the entire bill when services are rendered then file a claim form for reimbursement. Claims must be filed within 12 months of the date of service. Submit claims to:
