What is a Vision Insurance Exam?

​The Vision Exam is for patients who have NO eye disease or symptoms of disease. It is sometimes referred to as a “Routine Exam,” "Annual Eye Exam" or “Well-Vision Exam.” Your eyes will be examined for any needed correction either by glasses or contact lenses or for any potential indicators of eye disease. Routine Vision Exams do NOT qualify for prescribing medications and/or treatment and most often are NOT covered by medical insurance therefore a vision insurance plan will be billed.

What is a Medical Insurance Exam

​The Comprehensive Medical Exam is for patients who have a current diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases and conditions of the eye including Dry Eye Syndrome, Cataracts Diabetes, Glaucoma, and Macular Degeneration therefore we will bill your medical insurance. Emergent visits for conditions such as corneal abrasions, foreign body, eye pain, flashes/floaters, pink eye, and sudden vision loss or changes, etc are also billed to medical insurance plans. A refraction, which is the determination of your eye glass prescription will NOT be covered under your medical insurance. Copays, Cost Shares, Deductibles all apply and will be billed.
