Medicare Eye Test Coverage

There has been some confusion expressed in regards to the changes in Medicare coverage for eye examinations. Under the new coverage plan for the eye test, Medicare now covers the complete cost of a comprehensive eye examination for qualified individuals under the age of 65 once every three years.

Are Eye Tests Bulk Billed?

For Medicare cardholder or recipients over the age of 65, Medicare will cover the cost of a comprehensive eye exam once every year. It is essential to have these yearly examinations to maintain the health of the eyes so that any changes can be detected early. Early detection is crucial in the treatment of many eye problems.

Your eyes are constantly changing which is why we recommend having your eyes examined at least every two years. This is most important in children and people over the age of 60 because their eyes change rapidly.

How often can you have a Medicare bulk billed eye test?

Medicare will cover the eye exam more frequently if the patient is shown to have identifiable changes in their vision. That means if a medical condition is present that requires frequent eye exams, such as diabetes or glaucoma, or if the patient notices vision changes, Medicare will pay the cost of the more frequent eye examinations as long as there is an identifiable change in the patient's vision.

What tests are not covered by Medicare?

It should be noted that Medicare covers only the cost of the examination. However, retinal photography may not be covered by Medicare. Contact lenses, glasses, or additional testing like contact lens fitting will be additional.
