How the Vision Plan Works
VSP features the largest eye care provider network in the United States. If you see a provider within the VSP Choice Network, you’ll receive the greatest benefit.
Employees now have two vision plans to choose from, Vision Basic or Vision Premium. You can choose to get covered for the essentials with the Vision Basic Plan or upgrade to the new enhanced Vision Premium Plan with annual benefits, increased allowances for frame and contact lenses, and VSP LightCare.
