Does New Look accept vision insurance claims?
Yes, at New Look, we make vision insurance claims easy! We accept claims for eyeglasses and contact lens purchases, based on your insurance policy agreements. Typically, your plan covers up to $300, and you pay the difference. We handle claims for in-store purchases, but for eye exams by an optometrist and online purchases, the claim must be made on your own via your insurer's portal.
6 tips to maximize your vision insurance benefits
1. Understand your coverage
Every coverage has its subtleties! It's essential to know what your vision insurance covers. Take the time to read your policy or contact your insurer for detailed information. This will help you avoid surprises and maximize your reimbursements.
2. Use chain suppliers
Choosing an eyewear company can save you a lot of money. The costs of consultations, treatments and products are often lower, and reimbursements are simplified. The advantage of a chain store is that you benefit from quality frames and reliable service. By opting for one of our many New Look stores, you can be sure of taking advantage of these benefits, as well as a generous warranty plan. Find out more about our guarantees here.
3. Choose frames that are durable and economical
Our brands are designed to offer excellent value for money. For example, the Lecavalier X New Look collection offers fashionable yet durable styles. Brands such as Madison, Caché, Sloane and Noor are also renowned for their durability and elegant design. Investing in quality frames means you'll keep them longer, reducing the need for frequent replacement.
4. Buy when there are promotions
Take advantage of promotions to maximize your savings on eyewear. New Look regularly offers great deals.
Visit our promotions page to stay up-to-date on current offers and never miss an opportunity to save.
5. Plan your eyewear purchases according to the coverage offered
When making your purchases, take a look at how often your vision insurance reimburses you. For example, if your insurance reimburses you every two years, synchronize your purchases to coincide with this period. This allows you to maximize the amount reimbursed by your insurance and better manage your vision health expenses. Also consider whether there are any promotions or special sales at the time you plan to buy your glasses, to make the most of your budget.
6. Check for the possibility of cross-reimbursement
If you have multiple insurances, you may be able to coordinate benefits to maximize your reimbursement. For example, if you have personal insurance and insurance provided by your employer, explore the possibility of coordinating benefits.
How do I get reimbursed for glasses?
Here are the steps involved in reimbursing you for glasses after purchase:
1. Purchase glasses online or in-store
You can purchase your eyewear directly online from our website or visit one of our stores. Our sales consultants and opticians are here to help you choose the best options for you. Or try glasses online!
2. Keep your bill
Make sure you keep the bill for your purchase. If you bought your glasses online, you can easily retrieve your receipt from your New Look account. This receipt is required to submit your claim.
3. Log in to your insurer's portal
Log in to your vision insurer's online portal to begin the reimbursement process. Each insurer has a different interface, but the principle remains the same: you'll need to provide information about your purchase and upload your receipt.
4. Follow the steps to submit your claim
Follow your insurer's instructions to complete your claim. This usually includes uploading your receipt and providing specific details of your purchase. If you encounter any difficulties, our customer service team is here to help.
