OHIP or Private Insurance May Cover Your Eye Exam
We provide itemized receipts for your convenience to submit to your private insurance. If you are 19 and under or 65 years old and over, OHIP covers the cost of your annual eye exam. Also, if you have particular eye or general health conditions such as diabetes or it is requested by your family physician OHIP may also provide coverage for your eye examinations.
Recently eye care in Ontario is being threatened of being removed from OHIP.
