Use Your Health Fund for Prescription Glasses at EYEZONE
Get More From Your Optical Extras
If your private health insurance includes optical extras, you may be eligible to claim a benefit towards prescription glasses purchased from EYEZONE.
At EYEZONE, we make it easy to shop for prescription glasses online while still making use of your eligible health fund benefits.
The amount you can claim will depend on your health fund, level of cover, available optical benefits and previous claims during the benefit period. We recommend checking your remaining optical benefits directly with your health fund before placing your order.

Health Funds
EYEZONE can provide health-fund claiming documentation for eligible prescription eyewear purchases where applicable.
I would then display the insurers you’re actually registered with, preferably using their logos rather than a huge block of text.
There isn’t one standard rebate for prescription glasses.
Your benefit can vary depending on your insurer, policy, level of Extras cover, remaining annual limit and the type of prescription eyewear purchased.
For example, two customers purchasing the same pair of EYEZONE glasses may receive different rebates because they have different policies.
For an accurate benefit amount, check directly with your health fund before ordering.
If your policy allows claims for eligible prescription eyewear purchased online, you can generally submit the itemised invoice supplied by EYEZONE to your health fund for assessment.
Eligibility and claiming requirements differ between health funds. Some insurers may also apply additional requirements or restrictions to online optical purchases.
If you’re unsure whether your EYEZONE purchase will qualify, we recommend contacting your insurer before ordering.
For online orders, I would not promise instant HICAPS claiming unless you’ve implemented a system that actually supports it.
Instead:
Online orders: Pay for your glasses online and we’ll provide an itemised optical invoice that you can use to submit an eligible claim directly to your health fund.
For your physical store you can separately say:
Shopping in store? Ask our team about available on-the-spot health fund claiming options.
That distinction is important.
