A benefit employees expect to see

Today’s employees know what they want – and what they want is vision care. According to a recent study, more than 80% of employees say vision benefits are as important as general medical insurance.1 What was once a nice-to-have perk is now a must-have method for recruiting and retaining top talent.


94%

of U.S. Americans surveyed say vision care coverage is valuable.2

40%

of employers say they believe workers leave their job to find employment that offers better benefits.3

70%

say that vision problems affect their work and productivity.4 

Eye exams: more than a vision benefit

Eye exams are an important part of any preventative health care program. With an unobstructed view of blood vessels, eye exams can provide an early diagnosis of serious health problems, such as:

  • Diabetes
  • Heart disease
  • High blood pressure
  • High cholesterol
  • Glaucoma and cataracts.5

The sooner health issues are found, the sooner they can be treated. Healthier employees. Lower health care expenses. A more productive workplace. That’s value that’s easy to see.
