Vision Service Plan (VSP) Giving an Extra $40 for Glasses

The Department of Human Resources wants you to keep an eye open for a great deal. The County’s vision care insurance provider VSP is offering a sale where you’ll really be able to see the savings.

VSP is offering an extra $40 to spend on top of your allowance when purchasing select BeBe, Calvin Klein, Flexon or Nike frames.

The $40 is automatically applied to your purchase at your network provider. There’s no extra paperwork or hassle. This offer is available for purchases made through Dec. 31.

VSP covers lenses or contacts each year, and frames once every other year (24 months). The County’s  plan pays 100 percent of the retail price of frames up to $130, with a 20 percent savings on the amount over the allowance at in-network providers. At an out of network provider, our plan pays up to $45.

With just a few months left in the benefits year, it’s a great time to see how much you have in your health care spending accounts. It may be the perfect time to buy a new pair of glasses or even cool new prescription sunglasses.
