If I have vision coverage through my health plan and through UnitedHealthcare Vision, how do the benefits coordinate?
You should submit your vision care expenses first to your health plan. Then submit your Explanation of Benefits from your health plan to UnitedHealthcare Vision. UnitedHealthcare Vision pays secondary to your health plan and will pay its benefits based on what you've already received from your health plan.

I wear trifocal lenses. Are these covered by UnitedHealthcare Vision for the $25 copayment, or do I have to pay extra?
Single vision, bifocal, trifocal and lenticular lenses are all covered for a $25 copayment when you use a network provider. The copayment also covers scratch coating, polycarbonate lenses, basic progressive lenses, tints and UV coating. You pay extra only when you buy other elective features. The plan pays limited benefits if you use a non-network provider.

Under UnitedHealthcare Vision, will I have to pay a $25 copayment for contact lenses?
Yes, the plan will pay 100% of the cost for most contact lenses at a network provider after you pay a $25 copayment. For toric, gas permeable and bifocal contacts, the plan will pay up to $150 at a network provider after you pay the copayment. The plan will pay up to $210 after the copayment for medically necessary contacts. If you go to a non-network provider the plan will pay up to $150 for elective contacts and up to $210 for medically necessary contacts. Any contact lens benefit replaces the eyeglass frames and lenses benefit.
