See well, be well.

Eyes Are Windows to Your Overall Health

Our mission is to help members enjoy the wonders of sight through healthy eyes and vision. Our purpose is to help people see everything so they can become anything they set their sights on–in their personal lives, in their communities, and in the world.

When two great companies come together, it’s easy to say the sum of the whole is greater than its parts. But the combination of Davis Vision and Superior Vision offers an unprecedented advance in the provision of eye care.

Through our routine vision care products, one of every 10 Americans now has access to quality care through a diverse network of eye care professionals, including independent vision care locations, and leading retail optical chains.

In addition to routine wellness, our unified effort provides utilization management and medical claims review, leading to increased savings, a seamless experience, and more effective and appropriate care. We leverage more than 25 years of providing vision medical management to guide our customers to the best solution for them, whether they are individuals, brokers, third party health plans, or eye care professionals.

While the majority of our staff is working from home and staying safe, we continue to invest—in technologies, in training, and in new ways to improve outcomes—because we want every American to have access to quality, affordable vision care. We believe everyone should enjoy the wonders of sight through healthy eyes and vision.
