I know dental is seperate, and I have already set that up but now it's time for my eyecheck and I have no idea if my eyes are covered or not. If not HOW do I get them covered? Any advice would be great.
--------------------
TriCare Prime covers one general eye exam per year. This is the same kind of exam you get for $40 at Lens Crafters. It will also cover glasses (not contacts) to a very limited extent. If you need specialized eye care that you can't get with one of these exams, you can get a referral for an eye specialist. This is covered under your family practice health care, not vision, and you should contact your PCM. But for regular things, like exams for glasses and contacts, you can go to the eye clinic on a military base, if you live on or near one. It's usually located somewhere in the vicinity of the BX. Just call and make an appointment. Be prepared to wait at least two weeks for the appointment because they're usually very busy.
