If you have vision insurance through Superior Vision, you’re eligible for regular eye exams and corrective eyewear at Eye Boutique. As with any insurance plan, coverage changes from time to time and it can be difficult to stay up to date with what's covered and how much you can expect to pay out of pocket.
We offer free benefits checks, and we'll explain your benefits in plain language so you can proceed with confidence.

Taking a closer look at Superior Vision benefits
Superior Vision eyeglass coverage
According to the Superior Vision website, their vision plan is designed to cover “basic” frames and optical lenses. In this case, basic refers to uncoated lenses. So if you wanted lens treatments like anti-glare or anti-scratch coating, that would be considered an upgrade or add-on (unless your employer specifically chose to cover this).
Progressive lenses are covered, and here’s how it works: the amount of coverage for progressive lenses is equal to what the eye care provider charges for a standard lined trifocal. The patient may have to pay the difference between the chosen progressive lens or there may be an applicable discount. This is why you should take advantage of our free coverage checks – we’ll let you know exactly what’s covered and how to make the most of your benefits.
For eyeglass frames coverage, Superior Vision gives a retail allowance and the patient pays the difference out of pocket if they choose more expensive frames.
Under most Superior Vision plans, members can use their benefits for contact lenses OR eyeglasses, but not both (during the same benefit period). There are some plans that cover both in the same benefit period, and we can check on this for you.
Superior Vision benefits cover basic eyeglass lenses only. For sunglass tinted lenses there will be an additional charge. There may be discounts on prescription sunglasses available to members after yearly vision benefits have been applied. There can be important coverage differences based on the specific plan you have – just give us a call or stop by and we’ll let you know!
A Consumers Advocate organization awarded Superior Vision insurance a “very good” rating for its eye care plans focusing on vision care and treatments. In the end, how “good” a vision insurance plan is depends a lot on the patient’s individual needs, and the specific plan they have.
In some cases, especially for patients paying on their own for vision coverage, you may be able to get a better deal without paying monthly premiums for vision insurance. We offer affordable pricing on comprehensive eye exams, regular promotions on eyewear and contacts, and patient financing through CareCredit.
Superior Vision and Davis Vision merged in 2017, so technically it’s now a single managed vision care company (the third largest among direct competitors). Superior Vision and Davis Vision continue to each serve their respective members.
Our eye doctors accept both Superior Vision and Davis Vision insurance plans, so no matter which one you have you’ll get the most value out of your benefits at Eye Boutique.
Eye Boutique accepts both, plus many other types of vision insurance including Union Health & Welfare plans. We also work to make quality vision care and eyewear affordable for all patients, even if you don’t have any vision insurance.
