It’s easy and affordable to add the Vision Benefit Rider to your dental benefits.
Eye exams are important to your vision and your overall health. In fact, regular eye checkups can help detect glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and cataracts.1 The optional Vision Benefit Rider works with your dental coverage and can pay benefits for eye exams and vision correction. You can go to any covered provider you choose to get vision insurance benefits.
