Vision ID Cards

Looking for your vision ID card? An ID card is not required, but if you would like a copy, visit myuhcvision.com. Look for the ‘View your ID Card’ video which will give you instructions on how to view, download and print. You can also find your ID card on the UHC app.

Your vision plan includes a strong out of network benefit to give you flexibility. You have two options to submit an out of network claim:

  • Option 1:  Submit your out of network claim electronically via our online submission form.  Log into your vision account at myuhcvision.com and click on ‘Out of Network Claims’ from the left navigation bar.
  • Option 2: Fill out the out of network claim form and mail or fax it to:

UnitedHealthcare Vision Claims Department
PO Box 30978
Salt Lake City, UT 84130
Fax: 248-733-6060

Please note: Receipts must be submitted together at the same time for services and materials purchased (even if purchased on different dates) to receive reimbursement. You will receive a one-time reimbursement based on your reimbursement schedule and service frequency in your employer’s vision care plan.

Spectera Eyecare Network

When visiting a provider in the Spectera Eyecare Network, a Vision ID card is not required. If you give your name, date of birth and zip code, the provider will be able to pull up your information.

If you would like to use your vision benefit (purchase a pair of lenses and frames, for example), use myuhcvision.com as your resource.  If you want to use your medical benefit (retinal issue, glaucoma, for example), visit myuhc.com to search for a vision provider.  Note that you can use myuhc.com as a single source to search for a standalone vision provider, but if you prefer to view a dedicated vision source, visit myuhcvision.com.

Children’s and Maternity Eye Care Benefit

Members age 0-18 and members pregnant or breastfeeding are eligible for a second exam. Members age 0-18 and members pregnant or breastfeeding are also eligible for a replacement frame and lenses if you have a prescription change of 0.5 diopter or more. The second exam and replacement benefits are the same as the initial exam, frame and lens benefits.

Laser Vision

UnitedHealthcare has partnered with QualSight LASIK, the largest LASIK manager in the United States, to provide our members with access to discounted laser vision correction providers. Member savings represent up to 35% off the national average price of Traditional LASIK. Contracted prices start at $945 per eye for Traditional LASIK and $1,395 per eye for Custom LASIK. Discounts are also provided on newer technologies such as Custom Bladeless (all laser) LASIK. For more information, visit myuhcvision.com.

Eyeglasses and Contact Lenses

At a participating in-network provider you will receive up to a 20% discount on an additional pair of eyeglasses or contact lenses. This program is available after your vision benefits have been exhausted. Please note that this discount shall not be considered insurance, and that UnitedHealthcare shall neither pay nor reimburse the provider or member for any funds owed or spent. To learn more about all the eyewear discounts available to you, visit myuhcvision.com.
