Vision plans

Eye Exam Only

Vision exams are important to our overall health as eye doctors can see the signs of several diseases and help avert a variety of disabilities. Our vision plans offer comprehensive benefits as well as access to one of the largest vision networks in California and nationwide. Many of the providers are conveniently located in optical centers at retail stores such as LensCrafters, Target Optical, WalMart, and Costco.
