Both Retiree vision plan options are administered by EyeMed.
- Retiree Discount Vision Plan: Retirees are automatically enrolled in this plan at no cost. The retiree discount vision plan offers a discount on an exam and a defined discount on materials. This plan does not offer out-of-network discounts. You can use your EyeMed discount as often as you like on nearly all your vision care purchases at EyeMed Insight network participating providers. The discount must be applied at the time of service. To use this plan, upon arrival you should tell the participating eye doctor that you have an EyeMed discount through Montgomery County Government Retirees, Discount Plan # 1018309. You will not receive an ID card with this plan.
- New Fully Insured Retiree Vision Plan: If you elect to enroll in this plan, you will pay a monthly premium based on your retiree cost share. The fully insured retiree vision plan is a full insurance plan with assigned copays for each service. It offers both in- and out-of-network benefits. You will receive an ID card if you enroll in this plan.
