A member asked:

Good day, please can you help me i want to get my glasses from an optometrist, will my medical aid cover me please ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Medicaid will cover: a small part of the optometrist exam but I do not think they allow spending $ for the actual frame or lenses. Each state's Medicaid is different so consult with your DSS/ Medicaid case worker before you proceed. Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
