Your Vision Care Benefits:

What can your Alberta Blue Cross Vision Insurance benefits be used towards? At Helio Optometry, your vision care benefits can be applied to a variety of services and products, including:

• Comprehensive Eye Exams: Regular eye exams are essential for maintaining optimal eye health and detecting any potential vision issues early on. With Alberta Blue Cross Vision Care, you can have a portion or all of your eye exam fee covered, ensuring that your vision is well cared for.

• Eyeglasses: Whether you need new prescription glasses or fashionable frames, your Alberta Blue Cross Vision Care benefits can help offset the cost of eyeglasses. Choose from a wide selection of frames and lenses to suit your style and vision needs.

• Prescription Sunglasses: Protect your eyes from harmful UV rays while enjoying clear vision outdoors with prescription sunglasses. With Alberta Blue Cross Vision Insurance, you can put your benefits towards prescription sunglasses, allowing you to see and look your best in the sun. You cannot, however, use vision care benefits for non-prescription sunglasses. 

• Contact Lenses: If you prefer contact lenses for vision correction, your Alberta Blue Cross Vision Care benefits can be used towards the purchase of contact lenses. Whether you need daily disposables, monthly lenses, or specialty contacts, we've got you covered.
