image of front desk assistant helping person fill out paperwork. At Jolly Good Eye Care, our goal is promote good eye health and enable you to have the clearest vision possible. We accept several types of vision insurance, Care Credit, cash, checks, and most credit cards. We inform our Austin and New Braunfels patients about exam and treatment costs at the beginning of your appointment. If you require a breakdown of costs, please let us know.

Vision Insurance

The knowledgeable staff at Jolly Good Eye Care is experienced in working with vision insurance providers. We will work directly with you and your vision insurer to submit claims regarding your vision care. We strive to ensure that you understand your insurance coverage and will answer any questions you may have regarding your benefits. Many current vision plans are designed to cover many of the basic vision-related costs, but not all costs associated with eye care. Most plans often require a co-payment for an office appointment as well as additional costs that are covered by the insured patient.

We currently accept the following insurance plans:

  • AETNA
  • Avesis
  • Block Vision
  • Blue Cross Blue Shield
  • BlueView Vision
  • Cigna Vision
  • Cigna Medical
  • EyeMed
  • Superior Vision
  • TriCare Prime
  • United Health Care
  • United Health Care Vision (Spectera)
  • Vision Service Plan (VSP)
  • Medicare
  • Davis Vision
Some individuals are lucky enough to have "Routine Vision Insurance" through their employer's medical coverage policy. Some plans pay toward the optometric eye exam only, others will sometimes pay towards the contact fitting fee and some even pay toward materials. If you are unsure, we can help verify.

Call us today at (512) 293-7587 (Austin) or (830) 625-2845 (New Braunfels) to find out more about your benefits and eligibility, as well as our insurance plan policies.

Flexible Spending Accounts

Many employers are offering Flexible Spending Account (FSA) options to employees. Sometimes these are referred of as cafeteria plans and are elective, supplemental insurance savings plans. These plans are designed to let you save money in an account, pre-tax, to pay for additional medical expenses such as eye exams, glasses, contacts, and often laser vision surgery. Check with the benefits administrator at your work to see if you are eligible for this program. FSAs can typically be used in conjunction with any vision insurance plan to offset any out-of-pocket costs on your behalf.

Other Payment Options

Our Austin and New Braunfels optometry staff understand that cost is a concern when evaluating vision care providers. We do not want cost to be an obstacle to maintaining proper eye health and good vision. We accept various forms of payment and are able to discuss financing options with you prior to any examination. At Jolly Good Eye Care, we also accept Care Credit, cash, check, and major credit cards. Call (512) 293-7587 (Austin) or (830) 625-2845 (New Braunfels) today to schedule your eye exam.
