Worried your child can't see well? Does the daughter need an eye test before first grade? Are your teenagers on the verge of learning to drive? Do you want to make sure that the service you receive is reliable, high quality and at a good price? We have put together a lot of great reasons for you, why you should contact the optical stores affiliated with Leumit!
Normal vision and healthy eyes are an integral part of our children's development.
If this is the first time your child is experiencing vision problems or needs an eye exam, we recommended you make an appointment for an ophthalmologist examination before visiting an optometrist. Please note - small children must come to the stores with a prescription from an ophthalmologist.
By the way, did you know that Leumit customers up to the age of 18* are entitled to a new pair of glasses every year?
When dealing with health issues, we research, study and compare. Glasses that are not high quality or suitable can be detramental to your child's health. On the other hand - excessively expensive glasses harm the whole family.
There are a whole lot of reasons to chose the optometry stores affiliated with Leumit for your child's new glasses (for the entire family's, in fact!), here are a few:
Leumit Health Services provides children, as standard, with 1.56 lenses with anti-reflex. These lenses are thinner than the standard with an anti-reflection coating, which allows clearer vision and prevents light reflections from lamps, flashlights, glass and sunlight. In addition, lenses with anti-reflex coating improve night vision. This, of course, is in contrast to the regular, standard and significantly cheaper lens provided by other health insurance funds.
As part of the national health basket, children up to the age of 7 (inclusive) are entitled to one pair of eyeglasses per calendaric year, including optical lenses and a frame, at 50 NIS/100 NIS (depending on the type of lens).
The glasses can be purchased at any of the select optical stores affiliated with Leumit.
Leumit Silver and Gold customers up to the age of 7 (inclusive), who were previously entitled to purchase eyeglasses with Leumit's supplemental insurance, can buy eyeglasses via the health basket, under the conditions detailed.
Leumit Silver and Gold customers over the age of 8 will continue to be entitled to eyeglasses under Leumit's supplemental insurance without any change in the eligibility conditions.
Myopia means difficulty seeing distant objects. The more severe the myopia, the greater the number of the lenses the child needs. Children who suffer from myopia see distant objects in a blurry way, squint and narrow their eyes in order to focus their vision, and will often suffer from headaches due to the strain on the eyes.
Most health insurance funds provide prescription lenses up -6. At Leumit it is important to us that even children with high numbers can get quality lenses at a reasonable price, therefore Leumit provides prescription lenses up to 8, thus saving hundreds of shekels for parents of children with high numbers.
Astigmatism is a defect resulting from the unequal curvature of the cornea or the lens in the eye, which results in blurry vision because there are two image points. The optical stores affiliated with Leumit provide a solution for children with astigmatism prescriptons of 2-4, with high-quality glasses, suitable for their needs, for a deductible of only 99 NIS, and this compared to the full price that can reach hundreds of NIS.
It's not just about astigmatism. Anyone who uses contact lenses for vision correction knows how high the costs can be. At Leumit we provide the highest quality lenses, at special prices, without competition.
