  1. Go to an in-network vision provider (listed on the Fund’s website) where covered expenses will be paid directly to the provider by the Fund. Covered expenses include an eye exam and a pair of covered eyeglasses or contact lenses. Expenses in excess of those covered by the Vision Care Benefit must be paid by the Retiree or Dependent, out-of-pocket.
  2. OR

  3. Go to an out-of-network vision provider (a duly licensed physician, optometrist, or ophthalmologist) and submit a claim to the Fund for reimbursement of covered vision expenses for up to the applicable calendar year annual maximum ( $150 per Retiree, $100 for Dependents).

If you go to an out-of-network provider to use your Vision Care Benefit, you must submit the appropriate claim submission documents, including required supporting documentation.
