Vision coverage is provided at no additional cost to members enrolled in any of the LGHP health plans. All members and enrolled dependents have the same vision coverage regardless of the health plan selected. All vision benefits are available once every 12 months from the last date used, with the exception of frames, which are available once every 24 months. Copayments are required.
The plan administrator for the vision benefit is EyeMed. EyeMed’s Certificate of Coverage [PDF, 123KB] is available for viewing. Requests for reimbursement for services provided by an out-of-network vision provider must be submitted on an EyeMed claim form [PDF, 134KB].
