The Davis Vision Benefit

The first purchase by the MVCC Professional Association Benefits Trust Fund was the NYSUT Group Vision Care Plan. The NYSUT Benefit Trust-endorsed provider and administrator of the Group Vision Care Plan is Davis Vision. Davis Vision is a union company and recipient of the New York State Excelsior Award for Total Quality Management. Our Benefits Fund trustees selected Davis Vision at a meeting on May 6, 2003. All bargaining unit members and their families are eligible for free annual comprehensive eye care services--eye exams, frames, and lenses--through participating providers. Members and their families will be covered under Davis Vision's "Premier Platinum" plan. It includes the following:

• a wide variety of frames
• choice of glass or plastic lenses
• all ranges of prescriptions including single vision, bifocal, trifocal, or lenticular
• prescription sunglasses
• standard progressive lenses
• various coatings
• one-year breakage warranty
• fittings for contacts
• up to four multi-packs of plan contact lenses per year.

A number of local optometrists participate in the plan, including all Empire Vision locations.
