** Professional fitting fees are not a covered service but may be covered or partially covered by applying any remaining contact lens allowance unused for the materials (lens) purchase. Any remaining amount will be applied to the professional fitting fee of the prescribing provider. Contact lens allowance must be used at one time; no amount will be carried forward. If the insured person chooses conventional contact lenses greater than the plan allowance, the insured person will receive a 15% discount toward the difference. If the insured person chooses disposable lenses greater than the plan allowance, the insured person is responsible for the balance.
*** Items purchased separately are discounted 20% off the retail price.
