Optometry prescriptions in Hicksville, NY

Coverage and prior authorization

Some allergy eye drops are sold over the counter, so plans may not cover the prescription version. Brand dry-eye and glaucoma drops often need a prior authorization or step therapy, and plans may limit how soon you can refill a bottle. We check your plan, tell your optometrist what it needs, and tell you the cost before filling.

Wear contact lenses? Ask your optometrist whether to remove them while using your drops, and how long to wait before putting them back in.

Questions

My optometrist prescribed an allergy drop. Is there an over-the-counter version?

Some allergy eye drops are available without a prescription. We can compare the over-the-counter price with your plan’s copay and tell you which costs less.

How long should I use antibiotic eye drops?

For the full course your optometrist prescribed, even if your eye looks better sooner. Call your optometrist if symptoms don’t improve.

Working with your prescriber

How we work with your optometry office

  1. We read the rejection

    We find out why the plan didn’t pay: a prior authorization, step therapy, a quantity limit or a drug that isn’t on the formulary.

  2. We send the plan’s criteria

    Your prescriber decides whether to submit a request and provides the clinical information the plan asks for.

  3. We follow it through

    We check the status with your plan and keep you updated until there’s a decision.

  4. We fill and deliver

    Once it’s approved, we fill your prescription and deliver it, or have it ready for pickup in Hicksville.
