Do the insurance company cover contacts like they do glasses?

Question

I wear glasses now and i was thnking abought getting contacts and i was wondering if my insurance cover my glasses would they cover my contacts if i were to get them

Answer 1

It really depends on your plan. Lots of insurance companies don't because contacts "are a luxury, not a necessity." They just pay for glasses since those are necessary. They aren't that expensive though, I spend about 90-100 bucks on them a year, so it's just like getting a new pair of glasses every year. And the eye check up to see if it was ok for me to wear contacts was 40 bucks.

But like I said, it all depends on your plan.

Answer 2

yes, mine pays up to $150/year
