While vision coverage for children is included in all health plans offered through Your Health Idaho, most adult health plans do not include vision benefits. Our vision connects us to our surroundings and is vital for our overall quality of life. This is why Your Health Idaho offers supplemental vision coverage through VSP®.
With VSP®, you can save on eyecare services and eyewear at all participating locations. The best part—you can enroll any time during the year. No Qualifying life event or a Special Enrollment Period is needed.
Why is vision care important?
While we may visit the doctor regularly, many underestimate the importance of routine eye exams. You don’t need to have eye issues to visit an eye doctor; even those with 20/20 vision should get their vision checked routinely.
An eye exam assesses your eyesight, can find eye diseases before any symptoms appear, and can detect wider health issues such as diabetes, glaucoma, thyroid issues, heart disease, and more. Additionally, with prolonged exposure to digital screens, it is important now more than ever to take care of our eyes.
