Schneider Electric offers you a vision plan, administered by EyeMed, that provides coverage for a vision exam, corrective lenses and frames each year. If you choose to enroll in the vision plan, you pay 100% of the cost of coverage.
The vision plan features a network of nationwide participating providers. You can go out-of-network and then get reimbursed for up to the allowance amount. Visit eyemed.com or download the EyeMed mobile app.
See the chart below for a summary of the vision plan coverage.
