Vision Solutions
Save Money on Your Employee Vision Program Walmart can save your company and its employees money on frames, lenses, and contact lenses at approximately 3,000 Walmart Vision Centers and Sam’s Club Optical. If you currently have a vision plan in which Walmart stores are not included in the network, you may want to consider Walmart’s Opti-Direct program. Opti-Direct: Vision Coverage Program Without Vision Insurance For employers that want to offer a vision program at Walmart and Sam’s Club stores without the hassle of purchasing a vision insurance plan and paying insurance premiums, Walmart’s Opti-Direct program offers a good alternative. Opti-Direct programs can be set up in one of two ways: - Overall Amount: Walmart will bill your company for an employee’s purchase up to a flat amount you establish towards prescription eyewear. (Example: $100 per employee). Anything over this amount is collected from your employee by Walmart at the time of service.

(Example: Frames not to exceed $18, single vision lenses not to exceed $30, etc.) Anything over this amount is collected from your employee by Walmart at the time of service.
