Maintaining healthy vision is crucial for educational success, professional productivity, and overall well-being. Yet, many people living in Soweto worry about the costs of eye tests, prescription glasses, and routine check-ups. Affordable optometry cover is not just a luxury but a necessity for families, young professionals, and seniors alike.
Affinity Health’s Day-to-Day plans and Combined options include optometry benefits, making essential eye care far more accessible in Soweto than paying out-of-pocket every year.
| Plan Type | Monthly Premium (from) | Optometry Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Junior Day-to-Day | R279 | Basic eye exams, frames, lenses |
| Standard Day-to-Day | R659 | Annual test, lenses, frames upgrades |
| Senior Day-to-Day | R579 | Senior eye health checks |
Everyone in Soweto can find a suitable plan. For example, schoolchildren covered under the Junior option can access affordable exams and glasses, reducing learning barriers. Working-age adults and retirees enjoy similar peace of mind with Day-to-Day or Combined cover.
Did you know? Regular vision screening is recommended every 1-2 years, according to health authorities, for both children and adults to catch eye conditions early.
Affordable plans mean you don’t have to compromise on essential vision care in tough economic times. Discover options here.
After enrollment, members can easily locate a participating optometrist nearby. Simply present your Affinity Health membership details at the visit to access covered services. Routine eye checks help with early detection of issues like short sight, long sight, astigmatism, and even help spot signs of diabetes or hypertension in older adults.
The right health cover puts scheduled vision checks and basic corrective eyewear within reach for everyone in the household, preventing avoidable eye issues. Find participating providers using Affinity Health’s provider search tool.
| Key Feature | Day-to-Day/Combined | Hospital Only |
|---|---|---|
| Eye examination | Covered annually | Not covered |
| Glasses | Allowance for basic frames/lenses | Not covered |
| Network providers | Yes | No |
Choosing a plan that includes day-to-day or combined benefits is essential for ongoing eye health services, as hospital-only plans do not include optometric care.
