If you posses vision care needs that go beyond basic annual exams, this coverage may be the perfect fit for you. The vision care plan offers you the opportunity to elect affordable, high-quality eye care coverage – including exams, lenses, frames, and contact lenses – through Vision Service Plan (VSP). The vision care plan provides coverage to help with your own and your family’s vision care expenses.
Using Your VSP Benefits
An ID card is not required to use VSP benefits. Simply follow these steps:
1. Register on the VSP website
To register, use your VSP ID, member name, and date of birth. Your VSP ID is your Social Security Number.
2. Find a VSP network doctor at vsp.com.
3. Make an appointment and tell the doctor you are a VSP member.
4. Your doctor and VSP will handle the rest.
The way you pay for vision services depends on the type of provider you use:
VSP Network Provider
Contact your VSP provider to schedule an appointment. Let the provider know that you have VSP coverage. At the time of your visit, pay the provider the required copayment and overages.
Non-VSP Provider
Pay the provider directly and submit a claim for reimbursement. Claim forms are available at vsp.com or by calling 1-800-877-7195. You must file claims within six months of the date services are received. You will need to provide the following information on your VSP claim form:
- Your provider’s bill, including a detailed list of the services you received
- Your VSP identification number
- Your name, phone number, and address
- The company name: Coke Florida
- The patient’s name, date of birth, phone number and address
(if different from yours)
- The patient’s relationship to you (for example: self, spouse, child)
1. Schedule yearly eye exams. Visiting your eye doctor regularly helps you see your best, protect your sight, and even detect serious health conditions such as diabetes.
2. Protect your eyes against UV rays. No matter what the reason, it is important to wear sunglasses. When selecting and purchasing sunglasses, be sure to confirm they offer 100% UVA/UVB protection.
3. Give your eyes a break from digital devices. Digital screens emit a specific type of blue and violet light which can negatively impact eye health and cause digital eye strain.
4. Quit smoking. Smoking increases your risk of developing macular degeneration, optic nerve damage, and cataracts.
5. Practice safe wear and care of contact lenses. Keep them clean and follow your optometrist’s recommendations for use and wear.
