Payment Options

It is our commitment at Visionary Eye Care, to be honest, and straightforward regarding the cost of our eye care services.

We believe that the cost for great eye care shouldn’t be a secret. If you have any questions specific to your insurance or needs please call or email us at any time. Our friendly billing and scheduling staff is waiting to help you!

Insurance

Most insurance plans are accepted at our office. As a patient, using your vision insurance at an in-network provider gives you a tremendous cost-saving advantage. We accept vision plans from:

• Avesis

• VSP

• EyeMed

• Unum Vision
  
  

It is important to know that many problems involving the eyes and vision can or must be submitted through medical insurance. We accept a wide range of medical insurance to accommodate these needs including Medicare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Sanford, Medica, Cigna, Aetna, United Healthcare, and many others.

Since there are so many plans and coverage varies widely, please call us to find out if your plan(s) covers care in our office. Our staff will verify and explain your benefits during your visit at no charge. During your eye exam, we will also discuss the cost of any additional services your doctor may feel are necessary to keep your eyes healthy and protected. Prior to ordering eyeglasses or contact lenses, our staff will provide you with an accurate out-of-pocket estimate so you can place your order with confidence. Remember, we are committed to being honest and straightforward regarding costs!

No Insurance

We offer a special type of eye examination for patients who are concerned about cost and/or do not qualify for other types of services. Our wellness exam is appropriate for patients who do not have medical conditions affecting their eyes and for those who are not experiencing any problems with their eyesight. A wellness exam is less detailed than a comprehensive exam but includes measuring your eyeglass prescription and a basic eye health exam. It does not include services for contact lens prescriptions (please see below). It may be appropriate if you are simply looking to update your eyeglass prescription. You may need to discuss if a wellness exam is appropriate for you upon scheduling or upon arrival for your visit as this less comprehensive type of exam is not appropriate for all patients.

We offer a variety of ways to receive care in an affordable manner even without insurance.

Contact Lenses

Additional fees for contact lens evaluations are charged separately and range from $70-225 depending on your needs, experience with contacts, the complexity of the prescription, and the contact lens type. For a vast majority of patients already successfully wearing contacts, the fee is an additional $70. For most patients wanting to try contact lenses for the first time, the fee ranges between $90-175. The contact lens examination is separate because your eye doctor is required by law to determine if your contacts are safe, healthy, comfortable, and providing adequate vision. This additional requirement is needed every 12 months to maintain a valid prescription for contact lenses.

Don’t forget to use your:

• Flexible Spending Plans

• Health Savings Accounts (HSA)

• Medical Savings Accounts (MSA)

• Cafeteria Plans for most of your eye care needs
  
  

All of the above plans can be used for eye care needs including exams, eyeglasses, prescription sunglasses, reading glasses, safety eyewear, contact lenses, and related supplies, ocular nutrition supplements, routine office visits, and medical visits.

Payment Options

If you have no insurance or other vision benefits there are still many ways for you to receive the care you need. We accept cash, checks (local only), and credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, and Discover). Care Credit is also available to use in our office. Learn more about Care Credit here.
