There are two vision plans right here in Oklahoma that offer outstanding benefits for our patients: Vision Care Direct (VCD) and Primary Vision Care Services (PVCS). These plans allow us to properly and effectively care for your vision by covering routine exams and prescription eye wear.
Either plan can be offered through your employer. They both have individual and family plans that can be purchased as stand-alone policies as well.
