Seagate makes it easy for you to maintain your vision with vision insurance that covers regular eye exams, eyeglasses and contact lenses. Vision plan enrollment is optional. You can choose either Basic or Enhanced coverage, both provided by VSP.
Both plans offer in- and out-of-network coverage, but with VSP Enhanced, your copayments will be lower and your frame and lens allowances higher. Coverage under the Enhanced plan also includes a second pair of glasses or contact lenses each year.
Under both plans, you’ll receive discounts, and benefit levels will be higher when you see a doctor and/or receive services within the VSP provider network, which now includes Sam's Club and Walmart.

Using Your Vision Plan
Visit any vision care provider for services, but your benefits will go further when you see one of the 20,000 VSP network doctors nationwide.
Here’s how to get the most from your vision benefits.
- Make an appointment with a VSP network vision care provider near you.
- Tell the office staff that you’re a VSP member. They’ll verify eligibility and plan coverage.
- Receive your vision care, and pay the copayment at the time of your visit. VSP will be billed for the balance.
If you see a provider outside the VSP network, you’re responsible for paying the full bill at the time of service. To be reimbursed for out-of-network services, submit an out-of-network claim form, along with the receipt, to VSP. You can find the claim form on VSP’s website.
