Have you ever wondered why your vision insurance company sends you to certain stores?

The simple answer is that the vision insurance companies are owned by large corporations that also own the

optical store chains so of course they have a vested interest in sending you the their stores and buying the eyeglasses frames that they also own.Eyemed is owned by Luxottica (there is good story on 60 minutes about this)

VSP is owned by Marchon,Davis is owned by Visionworks.See a pattern here. This why you always seem to still owe a lot of money after you have presented your insurance. It is not supposed to work like that,insurance should mean that you pay only a small amount. The good news is I have figured out how to use your optical benefits online so that your insurance works the way it was supposed to work so that you have little or no out of pocket expense.
