Neurolens cost depends on what the doctor finds at your exam. Your prescription, how your eyes work together, the frames you pick and any lens coatings all change the price, and so does your insurance. Because the recommendation is different for each person, we give you a quote after we have measured your eyes, not before.
At Navigation Eye Care in Chesapeake, here is what goes into the price, how insurance and FSA or HSA funds can help, and how to keep your lenses working once you have them.
What affects the cost of Neurolens
- Your prescription and eye alignment: Neurolens uses contoured prism, and the amount you need comes from your measurements.
- Your frames: frame choice changes the total.
- Lens coatings: options like anti-glare add to the price.
- Your insurance: what your plan covers lowers what you pay.
The doctor recommends what is best for your eyes, then we walk you through the cost before you decide. You will not be asked to commit before you know the number.
Does insurance cover Neurolens?
Most standard vision plans do not cover Neurolens because it is a specialized lens. Many patients use FSA or HSA funds to help pay for it. For plan-by-plan details, see our guide to Neurolens insurance coverage and payment options.
Are there Neurolens discounts?
We sometimes offer savings on a second pair, especially around your one-month follow-up visit. Ask our team what is available when you get your quote.
How to get your Neurolens quote
Start with an exam. We use the Neurolens measurement device to check how your eyes work together, and the doctor decides whether Neurolens is right for you. Then we give you your price, with your insurance factored in.
Call Navigation Eye Care at (757) 529-6889 or book a Neurolens exam online to get a quote based on your own eyes. You can also learn how Neurolens works.
Caring for your Neurolens
Once you have your lenses, a little care keeps them clear and comfortable:
- Use a lens cleaning spray your eye doctor recommends. Household cleaners are too harsh.
- Wipe with the microfiber cloth that came with your glasses.
- Keep them off hot dashboards and out of steamy bathrooms, and do not leave them sitting in water.
When to come back in
- Every year: an annual exam checks that your lenses still match your eyes.
- If symptoms return: headaches, tired eyes or blur while reading can mean it is time for an update.
- If the lenses look worn: scratches, cloudy spots or worn coatings are worth a check.
We will recheck your Neurolens measurements at each visit to make sure your lenses still fit your needs.
Frequently asked questions
How much does Neurolens cost? It depends on your prescription, eye alignment, frames, coatings and insurance. We give you an exact quote after your exam and measurement, once the doctor knows what your eyes need.
Why is there no price online? Two people can need very different lenses. A price that is right for one patient would be wrong for the next, so we would rather give you a real number for your eyes.
Can I use FSA or HSA funds for Neurolens? Many patients do. Check your plan’s rules first.
How often should I replace my Neurolens? There is no set replacement schedule. Dr. Teten and Dr. Moss check your Neurolens at your yearly eye exam and let you know if anything needs to change. If your symptoms come back before then, schedule a visit sooner.
