Importance of Vision

Eye Exams are Essential

Everyone needs an annual eye exam, regardless of age or physical health. During your exam, your doctor will check your vision and your eyes for common diseases such as:

  • Glaucoma
  • Diabetes
  • Cardiovascular disease
  • Cancer

Even if you have perfect vision, your annual eye exam is a critical component to your overall health and wellness.

80% of what children learn is visual

Sunglasses Save Eyes

Sunglasses block harmful UV rays, which can damage your eyes. Because sunglasses are so important to eye health, they are a covered benefit under all of CEC’s vision plans.

Increase Productivity

Reports show that employees who have their eyes checked and can access vision care are happier and more productive. And when listing their most important benefits after medical, employees consistently include vision in their top five. Because CEC allows members to use their eyewear allowance to get what they need, your employees will thank you for selecting such an easy-to-use plan.
