You pay for vision coverage through pre-tax premiums from your paycheck. The amount you pay will depend on whether you cover just yourself or family members. You can view your plan costs in the enrollment system and here.

You can see any vision care provider you want, but you’ll generally pay less by staying in network. Visit the Vision Service Plan (VSP) website to find an in-network vision care provider near you.

Use your Health Care FSA to pay for eligible vision expenses with tax-free dollars.
