Helping employees see clearly.

Our Vision insurance plans are designed to help keep employees’ eyes healthy so they can stay productive at work. Coverage can include savings on eye exams, eyewear, and discounts on laser vision correction.

Offering employees Vision insurance through VSP® Vision Care, that includes a comprehensive eye exam, is important because VSP providers can detect signs of chronic health conditions, such as diabetes and high blood pressure, before costly symptoms arise.
