With our eyes always set on improving vision insurance benefits for EyeMed members, we conducted a study of consumer attitudes to see which enhanced vision insurance benefits members would value most.1 We learned that members use their vision insurance benefits for eye exams most (48 percent of claim utilization) followed by frames (28 percent of claims).1
We used the insights we collected in our study1 to create Eye360* – an enhanced vision insurance benefits package for members who visit PLUS Providers, a select group of EyeMed's in-network providers. Eye360 focuses on wellness, savings and simplicity. Here's how.
$0 copays for vision care exams: eye care is vision health care
When visiting a PLUS Provider, Eye360 provides members with $0 copay vision care exams —not only saving your employees money, but also encouraging them to be proactive with their holistic vision health care.
While regular vision care exams can uncover vision correction needs, they can also detect signs of serious health conditions, such as hypertension, high cholesterol and diabetes.2 Early detection is key to improving the chances for positive outcomes.
Eye360 removes the cost barrier to receiving this important vision care exam.
$50 frame allowance: savings and selections
With Eye360, members also get an additional $50 frame allowance when visiting PLUS Providers. That is on top of their base plan's vision insurance benefits. And the savings applies to all frames carried at PLUS Provider locations, not just certain brands.
Built-in simplicity and convenience
Best of all, the perks of Eye360 are built right into the members' vision insurance benefit plans. This means there are no promo codes to remember, no coupons to clip and no claims to file. It's all automatic: Members need only visit a PLUS Provider to save.
Also, with over 4,500 PLUS Providers nationwide, including independent, retail and online options, members will find plenty of locations nearby. In fact, 1 in 3 Eye360 members choose a PLUS Provider for convenience and savings.3
With $0 vision care exams and a $50 additional frame allowance, Eye360 delivers greater savings. No wonder 100% of surveyed clients with Eye360 are satisfied with their vision insurance benefits.4
