Health Benefits
Vision Insurance
Vision insurance is a type of coverage that helps reduce the cost of eye care, including routine eye exams, prescription glasses, contact lenses, and sometimes even corrective surgeries. By paying a monthly premium, you gain access to a network of eye care professionals who provide services at discounted rates. Vision insurance typically covers annual eye exams and provides allowances or discounts for eyewear, making it easier to maintain healthy vision and address any changes in your eyesight. At Immanuel, our vision insurance benefits are designed to support your eye health and overall well-being.
Eye-opening coverage designed especially for you
Vision benefits are so much more than an eye exam. They help you save money, stay healthy, and see everything life offers. Immanuel offers vision coverage through Ameritas, which provides nationwide affordable, quality vision care. Members who are Immanuel employees can enjoy additional savings programs by registering an account online.
Ameritas Vision Insurance
Eye health is important and comprehensive exams, quality eyewear and premium lenses can be expensive. For the 65 percent of American adults who wear prescription eyeglasses, contact lenses or both, vision insurance, like the Ameritas plan offered by Immanuel, often pays for itself. But even if your vision is fine now, you may benefit from this affordable option. Here's how:
-
Vision insurance delivers real financial value. The cost of a comprehensive eye exam without insurance can be close to $200, and that doesn't include the cost of glasses or contacts. Under the Immanuel plan, a vision exam, glasses (lenses and frames) or contact lenses are covered once every 12 months.
-
Annual eye exams are good for your overall health. Even if you have 20/20 vision, eye exams are important because they can help detect health problems. Since the eye provides doctors with a clear view of your blood vessels, a thorough exam can detect serious problems such as diabetes, lupus, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and eye diseases like glaucoma and macular degeneration.
-
Eye care needs run in the family. The value of vision benefits is seen by every family member in every stage of life. This includes infants and children, who depend on their eyes to learn, as well as adults and seniors, whose vision impacts their ability to work and live independently.
