What does ‘vision plan’ mean?

At Specsavers, you can use your vision plan to claim a rebate on a comprehensive eye exam, including 3D eye scan, with one of our independent optometrists. You can also claim a rebate on our great range of glasses, prescription sunglasses and contact lenses. Each health insurer and policy is different, so it’s worth having a chat with our team in your local store to help you understand exactly what you can claim.

How does using a vision plan work?

Having optical coverage can mean that you can get an eye exam, glasses, sunglasses or contact lenses for low or no out-of-pocket expense. We have a great range of vision plan offers too, including two designer styles from the $199 range, complete with single-vision lenses for no or low out-of-pocket expense.

Getting the most out of your optical coverage

Choose designer styles

Selected vision plan members can get two designer styles from the $199 range with no out-of-pocket expense, complete with single-vision lenses. We’ve got a range of designer brands to choose from, so you can stay right on trend with the latest looks.
