June 6th marks Visually Impaired People Day, and it's an important reminder of how vision care fits into Medicare coverage.
Original Medicare mainly focuses on medical needs, which means it covers eye conditions that require diagnosis or treatment but not routine vision exams. Medicare Advantage plans, however, often include routine eye exams and additional vision benefits.
We put together a quick overview so you can see how each type of plan approaches vision care and eye health.
