VSP Individual Vision Plans

Maximize Frame Allowances

Your out-of-pocket costs depend heavily on where you shop. While some retailers offer a standard allowance, choosing a VSP-featured frame brand can often increase your benefit by $20 or more, significantly reducing what you pay for new glasses.

Leverage Member Extras

Beyond basic vision coverage, stay alert for VSP Member Extras which can provide over $3,000 in additional value. These perks often include large rebates on contact lenses and significant discounts on hearing aids through partnered providers.

Immediate Benefit Activation

Unlike many insurance products, these vision plans often allow for same-day benefit use. You can enroll online and schedule a WellVision Exam immediately, ensuring you don't have to wait through a blackout period to access your coverage.

Utilize Secondary Eyewear Discounts

After your initial annual exam, you can typically save an additional 20% on any extra pairs of prescription glasses or sunglasses. This is a cost-effective way to get a backup set or dedicated computer glasses within 12 months of your primary appointment.
