Use Your Vision Benefits Before Year End in London, Ontario

Around this time every year I start reminding customers to check their benefits. A lot of insurance plans give you a set amount for glasses every year or every two years, and if you don't use it before it resets, that money is gone.

Check when your vision coverage resets

Look at how much your plan covers for glasses and when that amount renews. Many plans run on the calendar year, so the deadline is December 31, but some renew on your policy date instead. If you're not sure, bring your plan information in and we'll help you figure it out.

We direct bill your insurance

We direct bill most private insurance plans, plus ODSP, OW, NIHB, IFH and Veterans Affairs. That means less paperwork for you, and depending on your coverage, you may pay little or nothing out of pocket.

Make your benefits go further

Your coverage can stretch a long way here. Two complete pairs of single vision glasses start at $249, and two pairs of progressives start at $548. A lot of people use what's left on a backup pair, prescription sunglasses or an upgrade like anti-reflective coating.

Don't leave it to the last week of December

December gets busy, and good glasses take a little time to make. If you come in during November with your valid prescription, you'll have your new glasses well before the holidays and before your benefits reset.

No eye exam needed here

We don't do eye exams, so get your exam done with any optometrist first, then bring the prescription to us. Walk-ins are welcome.
