Is Vision Insurance Worth the Cost?
If you do not have vision coverage through an employer, you may have wondered if you can get your own plan and if so if it is worth the cost. You can ask a insurance broker to help you find a plan OR you can get your own plan and skip the middle man. Vision Service Plan (VSP) offers VSP Individual Plans that may be just right for you! The good new is that their plans start at just $15 a month. With the rising costs of everything else, it’s good to know that you could save hundreds on eye care and eyewear.
With VSP Individual Plan, you can get coverage instantly and on your own. These plans are for uninsured patients who are retirees, self-employed workers, contractors, part-time workers, unemployed, aged out dependents, and Medicare recipients.
I am an optometrist and I have dealt with almost every type of vision insurance out there. VSP is by far the best for patients and for their provider.

You can also use the find a provider link to make sure the provider you want to see participates in VSP.
Back to School Checklist Should Include an Eye Exam
It all begins with an idea.
Start the school year off right by making sure your children are ready to learn! Eighty percent of what a child learns comes through their eyes. One in four school-aged children have an undiagnosed vision problem that interferes with learning. Having an undiagnosed vision problem could greatly affect your child’s ability to learn.
A back to school exam should include a comprehensive eye examination with dilation. A child’s first exam should be before 1 year of age, then during preschool, prior to kindergarten and then yearly.
Children sometimes will not complain about their vision…they don’t always know what they should be seeing. Things to watch for include:
- difficulty concentrating on school work
- poor reading comprehension
- headaches
- blinking
- frequent eye rubbing or squinting
- blurred vision
Scheduling an appointment with an optometrist is the best way to ensure your child has the vision necessary to learn.
