    Vision-care insurance plans usually offer discounts on the cost of contact lenses. However, discounts and the brands the plan covers vary, so check the plan carefully before you purchase your lenses.

    Just as vision care plans cover the cost of eyeglasses, they also cover the cost of contact lenses, after any applicable member co-pay amount. Each vision care plan is different in what it covers and the frequency, so review your plan options to find out if contact lenses are covered
