Routine Eye Care

The doctors and staff of Discover Vision Centers are specially trained to provide you with a complete spectrum of eye care. Maintaining a routine eye exam is the best way to determine the health of your eye. Annual exams assist in the protection of your eyes, detecting any problems at the earliest stage.

Discover Vision accepts and participates in nearly all locally-available insurance plans. Your medical insurance may include an annual routine eye exam. In addition, you may have a separate insurance plan such as VSP which covers routine eye care. Typically, this type of insurance provides an annual eye exam and may also include a benefit toward contact lenses or eyeglasses. Every plan is different and the best way to find out if you have coverage is to call your insurance provider or provide this information to our staff before your visit. For the most up-to-date list of accepted insurance, please call 816.478.1230.
