Vision Insurance Plan (VSP) is a rip off

VSP is a rip off. A long story short I am in the process of trying to get my eyeglasses made correctly. Went to the eye doctor June 2014 and ordered my glasses. In approximately two weeks I got them and could not see out of the darn eyeglasses. I went back to see the doctor and had a second exam and the prescription was changed a little. Again, received glasses in approximately three weeks and I still cant see out of them. Another appointment has been made to see the doctor again. If they can't get them right this time I am going to request a refund and go another doctor for an exam. The same issue happened to me three years ago with a different doctor with VSP. I ended up getting a refund and went to a different doctor that is not in the VSP network and my glasses were perfect. The doctor did my eye exam and I had my glasses made at Walmart and I paid approximately the same without insurance. FED UP WITH VSP!!!

Weird there's another thread or two (from a few years back) about VSP. I replied then and now that they ******* great. They cover a ton for your eyeglasses lenses and cover a big portion of the frames - every year. My Oliver People eyelglasses cost ~$200 instead of $700 for frame and glasses. ANyway, who knows it may have more to do with my employer than the insurance company but from what I know other vision insurance providers offered by my company don't offer anywhere near the same benefits.
