Alan’s Vision Journey
Alan first learned about the Curaechoice Vision program from an internal email communication at Mercedes-Benz, where he works. He already had a trusted eye doctor, so when it came time for his yearly checkup, he stuck with his regular provider— but still used the Curaechoice Vision benefit to order his new glasses. “I didn’t use a Curaechoice doctor. I used my normal doctor. I only used the Curaechoice app to order my glasses.' Through the Curaechoice Vision program, Alan
accessed the Zenni online eyewear benefit and
completed his order without any issues. The cost—
zero. “I didn’t have to pay anything out of pocket for
my glasses. The Zenni credit covered it.”
He compared it to his previous experience using
another vision program, where his cataracts
led to a $90 copay for a similar order. “I used my
optical insurance before and had to pay a lot of
money because of my cataracts.”

Coverage and Satisfaction
As Alan approaches retirement, he’s especially grateful for the ease and savings Curaechoice provides now. His experience reflects how the Curaechoice Vision program can support members looking for affordable, flexible options. “I’ll probably retire next year, so I’m hesitant about leaving the doctors I already use since I will lose Curaechoice after I retire.”I had to pay $90 using another program because of my cataracts. With Curaechoice, the glasses cost me nothing.
