LAPRA members who enroll in the Anthem Blue Cross Prudent Buyer PPO or the Anthem Blue Cross CaliforniaCare
Plus HMO automatically receive vision coverage through Vision Service Plan (VSP).
You may use any vision provider for vision care; however, when you use a VSP Choice provider, you’ll save money
on exams and eyewear and there are no claim forms. VSP also offers discounts on glasses and sunglasses, contact
lenses, and laser vision correction. Most services are provided every 12 months. For more information and to find a
member doctor, visit the VSP website at
www.vsp.com.
Vision Benefits for Kaiser HMO Members
If you enroll in the Kaiser HMO, vision care is provided through Kaiser. There is no charge for eye exams
to determine the need for vision correction. In addition, members receive a $350 allowance for medically
necessary eyewear every 24 months.
