Needed Affordable Glasses and Contact Lens Coverage

The costs

  • Cost with insurance: $150–$400
  • Cost without insurance: $400–$1,200
  • Cost with Curaechoice: $0

Ned’s Vision Experience

Vision care was one of the first Curaechoice benefits Ned and his family used. “Our longtime optometrist now accepts Curaechoice so it was convenient,” he said. Having the ability to continue seeing a provider he trusted—while lowering costs through Curaechoice—was a welcome surprise.

Ned emphasized that coverage extended beyond basic exams. “We paid nothing out of pocket for our routine eye exams, and our contacts are covered too. We usually order our glasses online, where they’re inexpensive, and those are fully covered as well,” he explained. For a family balancing high deductibles under insurance, it was refreshing to know that vision care didn’t have to be a trade-off.

They no longer choose between contacts or glasses and can access both affordably.

Scheduling was equally stress-free. Ned said that he was able to secure appointments quickly without delays. The direct coordination between Curaechoice and the provider’s office ensured that billing was handled smoothly, with no surprise costs or paperwork on his end. This simplicity stood out compared to prior experiences.

For Ned, the Curaechoice Vision program reflected the company’s broader role as a valuable benefit overall. By offering members $0-out-of-pocket coverage, Curaechoice has made care more predictable and transparent. In a world where vision expenses can climb quickly— especially for families with multiple people needing exams, lenses, or frames—the program offered measurable relief.
We have had the same optometrist for a long time - so the fact that he takes Curaechoice is awesome!

Coverage and Satisfaction

“Overall, I am more than satisfied with the coverage we have received from Curaechoice. It has been a huge cash saver for me and my family.”

Ned believes the Curaechoice Vision program reduces the stress of high-cost choices, allowing his family to get the care they need without compromise. It has changed the way they view eye care, turning what used to be a financial strain into a routine part of staying healthy.
Our routine eye doctor visits were covered and so were our contacts.
