Insurance Options at Washington Eye Doctors

At Washington Eye Doctors, we want you to feel completely prepared for your upcoming visit and are proud to accept a variety of insurance and financing plans for our services. If you plan to use private insurance to cover the cost of your appointment, please be aware it can take us up to 48 hours to verify your coverage. Please check the list of insurance plans we accept to ensure yours is included — while we proudly accept VSP plans, we cannot accept Medicaid. If your plan isn’t listed here, don’t worry — we also offer a courtesy discount on exams and eyeglasses for patients with vision plans we don’t accept, so everyone can get the care they deserve.

Making Eyecare More Accessible with CareCredit

We understand that times are unpredictable—and budgeting for your health, especially your vision, isn’t always easy. That’s why we’re proud to offer CareCredit as a simple, flexible financing option for our patients. CareCredit works like a healthcare credit card, allowing you to pay for your eye exams, glasses, contact lenses, and even specialty services over time—with no upfront payment required and no interest if paid in full within the promotional period.

This solution helps bridge the gap between your needs and your budget, giving you access to the high-quality eye care you deserve without delay or added stress.

We believe that no one should have to choose between their health and their finances. That’s why we’re committed to offering affordable care options, whether through insurance, courtesy discounts, or payment plans like CareCredit.

Two Main Benefits: Insurance & Special Accounts

We’re able to accept a range of insurance plans and other ways to cover the cost of your care, including Flex Spending Accounts (FSA) and Health Savings Accounts (HSA).
Family Health Insurance

Health & Vision Insurance

Health and vision insurance are great ways to cover or reduce the cost of various medical services. Vision insurance covers routine eye exams and appointments and can often be used for eyewear as well. Health insurance is used to cover medications and medical treatments, such as for eye diseases . At Washington Eye Doctors, we’re proud to accept both types of insurance to make our care as accessible as possible.

FSA at Washington Eye Doctors

FSAs and HSAs

FSAs and HSAs are benefits that can help pay for part or all of your qualified medical expenses using pre-taxed money. Often, you’ll add money to an FSA or HSA every pay period.

While both FSAs and HSAs can be used for similar medical expenses, there is a crucial difference between the two. FSAs typically won’t roll over any unused funds to the next year, so make sure to remember to use your FSA funds before they expire!
