Vision Benefits
Coverage with your choice of network through MetLife.
We are happy to provide a choice of networks, giving you access to either MetLife’s Superior network or the VSP Choice network.
Network
While you can utilize in- and out-of-network providers, you will receive the most benefits when utilizing an in-network provider.
Find VSP Choice and Superior Vision providers here and select “VSP Choice” or “Superior Vision”.
ID Cards
You and your dependents will not receive physical vision ID cards. A virtual ID card is available through the MetLife Portal or on the MetLife Mobile App!
You may also give your provider’s office your name, carrier (MetLife), date of birth, and Social Security number to verify coverage.
To access your virtual ID card, register at MetLife.com under the “Attentive Mobile Inc.” group. Once logged in, go to Accounts to view, download, or print your ID card.
