Vision Benefits

Unity covers one routine eye exam per calendar year at a participating provider. Non-routine eye exams are covered as medically necessary. Contact lens fittings are not part of the routine exam and are not covered. Unity also does not cover eyeglasses and corrective contact lenses, except for the initial lens per surgical eye directly related to cataract surgery.
