    BENEFIT COVERAGE GUIDELINE – 10.01.521 Routine Vision Care Effective Date: Mar. 1, 2021 RELATED MEDICAL POLICIES / GUIDELINES: Last Revised: Feb. 2, 2021 9.03.508 Orthoptic and Vision Therapy, Visual Perceptual Training, Vision Replaces: N/A Restoration Therapy, and Neurovisual Rehabilitation Select a hyperlink below to be directed to that section. BENEFIT COVERAGE CRITERIA | CODING | RELATED INFORMATION EVIDENCE REVIEW | REFERENCES | HISTORY ∞ Clicking this icon returns you to the hyperlinks menu above. Introduction Vision services is a broad term that means care of the eyes. Vision services are usually either “routine” or “medical”. Although the exams and activities may be similar, the reason for the visit determines whether it’s a routine or medical visit. Visiting an ophthalmologist (a medical doctor) does not necessarily make the visit or exam “medical” in nature. Benefits vary depending on the reason for the examination. • Routine eye exam: Routine exams are often done to find the cause of blurry vision. They produce a diagnosis such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), presbyopia (inability to focus on near objects), or astigmatism (irregular curvature of the clear cover of the eye, the cornea). After a routine exam, a prescription for corrective lenses (glasses) may be given to the patient. If the plan offers a routine vision benefit, the routine services are covered at the level stated in the member’s contract. If the plan does not offer a routine vision benefit, routine services are not covered. • Medical eye exam: Medical exams are to diagnose, treat, or monitor eye conditions such as aniridia, aniseikonia, anisometropia, aphakia, bullous keratopathy, congenital cataract, corneal abrasion, corneal disorders, corneal ulcer, irregular astigmatism, keratoconus, pathological myopia, post-traumatic disorders, progressive high (degenerative) myopia, recurrent erosion of cornea, Sjogren disease, or tear film insufficiency.

An eye exam performed by an ophthalmologist or optometrist is a covered benefit when a specific ophthalmic disease, medical condition or infective process is being monitored or treated such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, cataracts, macular degeneration, keratoconus, strabismus and amblyopia. Routine eye exams/care may be covered under the members benefit for vision services should the member have that benefit in their contract.
