VSP provides the vision coverage I need at a cost I can afford for both my lovely wife and I.

I held off getting new glasses for 2 years, even while paying VSP. I assumed the two pair I wanted, normal and reading glasses, would cost me over $1,000. I was shocked when I got both pairs for $875 total. Very happy with VSP.
Since becoming permanently disabled in 2016, Medicare does not have vision insurance, so I've been forced to pay for an individual plan on my own. With VSP, I pay a co-pay for doctor visits and my plan saves me a lot of money towards my frames and lenses; my cost is almost nothing out of pocket. VSP has the "best" individual vision plan that takes care of all of my needs as well as a great customer service team.
I enrolled because my job doesn't offer insurance. There is a great benefit about having this vision plan because my out of pocket price is much cheaper for contacts/glasses. It puts me in the driver seat with my eyes.
We had VSP while my husband was employed. Upon retiring, we now have it individually. We have been happy with the pay off and also the monthly premium. It pays quite well and really helps when on a retired income.
I like that the costs of my examination and glasses are reduced. I save over half on a new set of frames and lenses.
I have had a VSP plan for more than 28 years during my employment. However, since my retirement in 2018, I have tried several other plans that are out there, all have been unsatisfactory. My optomologist educated me that I could get an individual VSP plan. I switched and have been very pleased.
I have been a VSP customer for many years. It has given a peace of mind knowing that I can have my eyes checked on a regular basis. I am diabetic so that means quite a lot. My daughter has also become a VSP customer as well so it's become a family tradition.
VSP has been wonderful! While not in network of my Medicaid coverage, it's affordable and at my most recent appointment, the savings for frames was double than the clinic's sale. I am very pleased.
Retired contact lens wearer - this helps with annual checkups and overall price.
VSP saved me a huge amount of money on my complex vision correction. Thank you!
VSP is the only way for me get glasses. The savings is a great blessing. It is something to look into if you are on a budget. Thank you VSP.
I retired early, but don't have eye coverage. I'm surprised to have the same provider and the coverage was almost the same. Very happy to be a part of VSP.
