Our eye doctors are BlueCross BlueShield vision insurance providers accepting new patients.
BCBS vision insurance is accepted at all 6 of our Chicago-area eye care centers. Schedule an eye exam online or contact your store for more information.
BCBS coverage for prescription eyeglasses includes prescription eyeglasses to be replaced “as needed” for plan members under 21 years old. Plan members age 21 and older have coverage for one pair of glasses every two years. Additional reimbursement for “upgraded” eyeglass frames may be available.
This information is found on the BlueCross BlueShield of Illinois website, which may not be complete or up to date.
To learn more about coverage for eyeglasses under your specific plan, including allowances for eyeglass frames and optical lenses, contact us and we’ll do a free coverage check.
We make it easy to understand your BCBS vision coverage
Even when you find your vision benefit description on the provider website, it can be hard understanding exactly what’s covered and what you can expect your out of pocket expenses to look like.
Just call or stop by for a free benefits check. We'll explain your vision plan details in plain language so you can avoid surprise out of pocket costs.
We also offer eyewear financing options to make it easy to get the vision correction you need right away and pay comfortably over time.
According to their website, BlueCross BlueShield vision plans cover one eye exam per year for each member.
If your vision plan covers a yearly eye exam, make sure to use your benefits even if you think your vision is “fine.” Comprehensive eye exams do more than test visual acuity; they’re an important part of preventive health care.
Based on the information on their website, BCBS of Illinois vision coverage includes medically necessary contact lenses.
Contact lenses are medically necessary if you have a vision prescription that can’t be addressed adequately with eyeglasses. Contacts can also be medically necessary for patients diagnosed with certain eye diseases. In all other cases, contacts are considered elective.
BlueCross BlueShield of Illinois have their vision benefits administered by EyeMed Vision Care.
Our eye doctors are also EyeMed providers, so no matter which company or plan you have, you're covered at Eye Boutique.
