Vision Insurance
LSU partners with EyeMed to provide you and your family with valuable vision insurance at affordable rates. Vision Insurance includes coverage for eye exams, lenses, frames, and contact lenses. Access to care is provided through EyeMed's provider network that include local independent eye doctors as well as large retailers such as America's Best and Wal-Mart Optical. Services at PLUS Providers, which include Target, LensCrafters, and PearleVision, will receive a greater frame allowance. Employees can select coverage for themselves, their spouse, and/or their child(ren) (up to age 26). If employees and their spouses are both LSU employees, the family cannot be double-covered.
