Health Funds

At Dresden Vision, we understand that accessing high-quality eyewear can be expensive. That’s why we partner with all significant health funds in Australia to make claiming easy and seamless. Whether buying glasses in-store, over the phone, or online, we ensure you get the most out of your health insurance policy. Our team is dedicated to helping you navigate the process to enjoy significant savings on prescription glasses, contact lenses, and other optical products.

Best Optical Health Insurance in Australia

Optical health insurance helps to reduce the cost of eyeglasses and contact lenses. At Dresden Vision, we are committed to ensuring our customers benefit from their health fund policies. Below, we'll explain how our optical services work with health funds.

  • Simple Claims Process: We offer on-the-spot claims for in-store purchases with a valid health fund membership card. For online and over-the-phone orders, we provide all necessary documentation for you to claim directly with your provider.
  • Maximising Benefits: Before purchasing, we offer a quote to ensure you understand how much your health fund will cover. This way, you only pay the gap.
  • Health Fund Limits: Each health fund operates differently, with rebates typically between $100 and $500 annually.
  • Coverage: Most health insurance plans cover prescription glasses and contact lenses under optical extras. Before purchasing, confirm with your provider that your policy includes these benefits.

Your Vision, Our Priority: Maximising Your Glasses Insurance Benefits

At Dresden Vision, we specialise in helping you get the most from your health insurance when purchasing eyewear. Whether you're buying multifocal or single-vision lenses, we ensure you save on premium glasses without compromising quality.

  • No-Gap Offers: With our "no-gap" offers, eligible members won’t have any out-of-pocket expenses for their eyewear. This may include a complete pair of standard multifocal glasses or two single-vision lenses, depending on your available funds and insurance plan. Just present your health fund card and enjoy significant savings.
  • Exclusive Discounts: We partner with health funds like HCF and GMHBA to offer exclusive in-store discounts, making your prescription glasses or contact lenses even more affordable.
  • Simple Claims Process: Dresden Vision makes claiming easy. Present your health fund card for in-store purchases, and we’ll handle the claim. We provide the documentation you must submit directly to your health fund for online or phone orders.

Your Trusted Partner for Eyeglass Insurance

When choosing insurance for glasses, consider your policy’s coverage, flexibility, and rebate amounts. Dresden Vision accepts all major health funds, including those offering extensive optical extras, so you can always access affordable eyewear.

  • Use It or Lose It: Many health funds reset benefits at the start of each calendar year. To avoid losing rebates, use your available optical extras before they expire on December 31st. Some health funds reset at the end of the financial year. Check with your provider to ensure you claim your benefits before they disappear.
  • Maximise Rebates: Most health funds will allow claims of between $100 and $500 annually. If you're unsure how much you can claim, visit us in-store with your membership card, and we'll provide a free quote.
  • Discounts for Health Fund Members: Dresden Vision offers discounts beyond rebates. With our exclusive partnerships, you can take advantage of additional discounts in addition to your health fund rebates, further reducing the cost of your eyewear.

When to Make Your Claim

To get the most out of your health fund, claim your benefits before they expire. Most health funds reset their benefits annually. However, some policies may have a different renewal date based on your sign-up date. Here’s a quick guide to help you out:

  • End of the Calendar Year: Be sure to use your optical extras by December 31st to avoid missing out on your benefits.
  • Financial Year Policies: Some health funds reset at the end of the financial year on the anniversary of your sign-up date, so double-check your policy to avoid any surprises.
  • No Rollovers: Most health funds don’t let benefits roll over, so make your claim within the current year.

You can maximise your health insurance benefits by staying on top of these dates.
