What Services Does Medicare Cover?

Medicare provides valuable coverage for eye care services to those holding a current Medicare card. Coverage includes:

One comprehensive eye test every three years for individuals under 65.
Annual comprehensive eye tests for those aged 65 and over.
Contact lens consultations for specific optical prescriptions.
Necessary eye tests for conditions like glaucoma or macular degeneration, ensuring those with specific eye health needs receive the care they require.

Are All Eye Tests Covered By Medicare?

It’s important to note that not all eye tests are covered under Medicare. Specific assessments may incur additional costs, including those for contact lenses, vision therapy, or dry eye management.

While private health funds may not always cover eye tests, many policies offer substantial benefits for optical expenses, covering up to 100% of the costs associated with frames, prescription lenses, or contact lenses. The level of coverage depends on your specific policy.
