Employees: Vision Care = Dental

A new survey conducted by The Harris Poll for XP Health finds that employees value vision care as much as dental, but many are confused about how to take advantage of it. The survey of 1,009 full-time employed U.S. adults, aged 25+, who are eligible for employer vision benefits, found the vast majority see the value of vision benefits, with 94% saying they are valuable, including 60% finding them to be very valuable. In fact, 82% say vision benefits are equally important as general medical insurance. Moreover, they find vision health (75% very important) on par with dental (77%), and ahead of annual preventative screenings (69%), mental (66%), and dermatology (36%). xphealth.co/whitepaper
