Is the purchase of eyeglasses or contact lenses covered by health insurance?

No. Neither the purchase of prescription eyeglasses nor contact lenses is covered by the public plan. Consequently, we do not reimburse the costs billed for this service. There is an exception for children: the financial assistance program See Better to Succeed offers a reimbursement for the purchase of eyeglasses or contact lenses for a child under the age of 18.
