It’s usually a good idea to get a comprehensive eye exam every one to two years, depending on your overall health. But if you want to change contact brands or renew an expired prescription without another trip to the eye doctor, you may be able to take a vision exam online.
Vision insurance usually covers one regular, in-network visit with your eye care provider per year ($150 on average). Depending on your insurance plan, you may need to pay an additional copay. Many insurance providers also cover the cost of an online vision exam. Since our online vision exam is free right now, you can save your vision insurance benefits for your contacts or glasses.
