Where to Buy Glasses and Contact Lenses
You may use your VSP vision benefits toward the purchase of eyeglass lenses, frames, and contact lenses from VSP network or non-network providers, including retail, online and discount vendors.
You are encouraged to compare vendors to find the eyeglasses and/or contact lenses that best meet your needs and budget. Shopping online can yield the best pricing.
