Making the Most of Your Vision Insurance

With more vision insurance options available than ever, understanding your plan helps you get the best value. Whether your coverage comes through an employer or a private provider, knowing what’s included helps you maximize your benefits.

Types of Vision Plans

    • Vision Benefits Package – Often part of employer healthcare, this plan covers routine eye exams, eyewear discounts, and sometimes eye surgery. Many use pre-tax contributions through Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) or Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) to help with costs.

    • Vision Discount Plans – These plans provide set discounts on exams, glasses, contacts, and even some surgical procedures. While they offer lower premiums than benefits packages, you pay the remaining balance out of pocket.

By understanding your coverage and using it wisely, you can protect your vision while making the most of your investment.

    • Review your plan details and discuss coverage with your eye care provider

    • Some eye conditions and treatments may be covered by traditional health insurance instead

    • Many vision benefits expire annually—if you don’t use them, you lose them

    • FSAs and some HSAs don’t roll over, so plan ahead for extra glasses, prescription sunglasses, or specialty eyewear

OHIP provides coverage for comprehensive eye exams for some groups:

  • Ages 19 and younger – every 12 months
  • Ages 65+ – every 12 or 18 months
  • Ages 20–64 – only some people with potentially sight-threatening conditions are eligible for an OHIP-insured comprehensive eye exam

Please contact us to learn more about your personal OHIP coverage.
