My optometrist recommends an eye examination every year, but the Fund covers only one every two years. Why?
Although the American Optometric Association recommends a preschool eye exam for children age 3 and then every two years until age 60, optometrists and opticians vary in their recommendations. The Benefits Fund covers in-network eye exams every year for children until age 18. In- and out-of-network eye exams are covered every two years for those over age 18.
