Vision

Page Header

A comprehensive eye exam can detect eye diseases, like glaucoma, in the early stages and help to ensure vision is preserved. Eye exams can also detect diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, and even cancer. To help you keep your eyes healthy and your life in focus, SPARC offers you vision coverage through EyeMed to help pay for eye exams and vision correction.

Overview

SPARC offers vision coverage through EyeMed. Employees can choose between two plans, Standard Plan and Enhanced Plan.

Both plans provide benefits for regular eye exams, prescription glasses, and contact lenses. The Enhanced Plan plan offers added reimbursement for frames and contact lenses, among other features, while the Standard Plan plan offers lower bi-weekly contribution rates.

EyeMed has an extensive network of providers that will generally offer lower out-of-pocket costs and higher reimbursement for certain benefits compared to out-of-network providers. In addition, when you see an EyeMed PLUS provider, your benefits will be even better. You can estimate your costs by using EyeMed's Know Before You Go tool. Learn more about accessing the tool through this flyer. With EyeRewards you can also be rewarded for taking care of your eye health, to learn more click here.
