Vision Coverage
This plan helps pay for a wide range of vision-related services and products, including periodic eye exams, eyeglasses and contact lenses for you and your covered dependents.
You have a choice of two vision care options provided through MetLife, which has a large network of vision care providers. You can check if your provider is in the network at www.metlife.com/vision. Services and supplies are covered once every 12 months unless otherwise noted.
Paying for Coverage
You’ll pay the cost of vision coverage with before-tax dollars. How much you pay is based on the dependents you cover. You can enroll any combination of you, your spouse, and your children in the option you choose.
