What types of eye care services does Medicaid cover?
Coverage includes vision testing, refraction, ocular health diagnostics, eyeglass frames, lenses, repairs, medically necessary contact lenses, and emergency eye exams when needed.
Can I get my glasses repaired if I'm on Medicaid?
Edge Optics offers on-site glasses frame adjustments and minor repairs. Medicaid may also cover replacement frames if medically necessary or if glasses are damaged/lost.
