I’ll be 70 3 months, I have to make the hard choice of paying for VISION or DENTAL both which will cost Thousands of $$ each, despite the fact we have Medicare/Tricare Life. VISION wins.
NEITHER ARE COVERED SERVICES.
Last week I went to the “eye doctor” for an exam and glasses. My Blue Cross of Arkansas doesn’t cover “vision”. It would however if I Needed an eye operation. The clinic decided they would try to sneak the visit past Blue Cross as a “medical exam” rather than “vision”. If successful they will save me $135.00.
The results: far sightedness, wear and tear on the lenses, and larger than normal optic nerves.
