Vision Coverage

Regular eye exams do more than keep your vision clear—they can also catch early signs of eye conditions, chronic health issues, and other factors that impact your overall well-being. The Fund’s vision plan, administered through National Vision Administrators (NVA), covers eye exams, glasses, and contact lenses, while giving you access to over 60,000 vision care providers.

Why Vision Benefits Matter

1

Preventive Eye Care Saves Trouble Later

Regular eye exams can detect vision changes early and help prevent more serious issues down the road, including eye diseases like glaucoma or cataracts.

2

Affordable Access to Glasses and Contacts

Vision insurance helps reduce out-of-pocket costs for eyeglasses, contact lenses, and prescription sunglasses, so you can see clearly without breaking the bank.

3

Better Overall Health

Eye exams can reveal early signs of systemic health conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure, helping you catch problems before they escalate.
