Benefit Overview

An annual routine eye exam
An annual allowance for eyewear
An annual contact lens fitting, re-fit, or evaluation

You can use your flexible eyewear allowance annually to get frames, lenses, contact lenses, and lens enhancements. Even non-prescription eyewear is covered! You can purchase exactly what you need for the health of your eyes.

In addition, you'll receive a 20% discount on the overage from most providers.

Importance of Vision

Eye Exams are Essential

Getting an annual eye exam is one of the best things you can do for your health and wellness, regardless of age or physical condition. During your exam, your eye doctor will check your vision health and determine if you need corrective lenses. Even if you have perfect vision, your doctor will check your eyes for signs of common diseases such as:

Glaucoma
Diabetes
Cardiovascular disease
Cancer

With comprehensive coverage from CEC, you can ensure your vision is never compromised.

Note: Benefits may vary by plan design. Check with your HR Administrator for your company's plan details.

Sunglasses Save Eyes

Sunglasses aren’t just a fashion accessory. They block harmful UV rays, which can damage your eyes. Because sunglasses are so important to eye health, they are a covered benefit under all of CEC’s vision plans.

Scheduling Your Eye Exam

Our expansive network of eye doctors gives you the ability to see your preferred provider.

Need a weekend appointment? We've got you covered. CEC's network includes 25 national retail optical chains, including Visionworks, Walmart, Target Optical, and LensCrafters.

To schedule an appointment, use our Provider Search to find a provider near you. Then, call the office you prefer to see and let them know you have a CEC vision plan. They will be happy to assist in scheduling an eye exam at a time that is convenient for you.

For additional assistance in finding a provider or scheduling an appointment, please contact our Customer Service team at 888-254-4290.
