Insurance companies usually categorize visits to your eye doctor as either “routine” or “medical.” The type of eye exam you have is determined by your chief complaint as well as your diagnosis. Most medical insurance plans do not pay for “routine vision” services, and most vision plans do not pay for “medical” problems. When you schedule your appointment, please let us know the reason for your visit, and what insurance plans you have. We will help you determine which plans may be appropriate for your visit.
