To help you keep life in focus, vision coverage through EyeMed provides benefits for eye exams and vision correction treatment.

Overview

You have the option to enroll in vision coverage as a new hire, during Open Enrollment, or if you have a qualifying life event. To see your premiums and enroll, log in to the UKG website.

Medical-Dental-Vision Opt Out

You can waive East West Bank health care coverage if you can provide proof of other coverage (such as your Medical ID card). You cannot opt out of medical coverage, and then choose dental and vision coverage only. If you enroll, you must select coverage for medical, dental, and vision.

The vision plan, provided through EyeMed, provides you the freedom to see any provider you choose, but the plan generally pays better benefits when you receive care from providers in the EyeMed network.

If you go to an out-of-network provider, you will be reimbursed for exams and eyewear according to a schedule of benefits. Need to submit an out-of-network claim? Get the claim form here.
