Frequently Asked Questions
I’m new to VSP. How do I use my vision benefits?
Welcome to the VSP family! Using your benefits is easy. Once your benefits are effective, create your VSP member account. From here, you can find a doctor near you, view your coverage information, print your Member ID card, and more!
Where can I find my VSP member ID card and ID number?
No ID card is needed when you visit a VSP® network provider—just tell them you have VSP, and we’ll take it from there! But if you’d like a copy of your ID card for your records, you can print a card from VSP member account.
When you schedule an eye appointment, your doctor may ask for your VSP member ID or member number. This may be the last four digits of your (the primary subscriber’s) social security number or a unique ID given by your employer (if you are enrolled through your workplace).
If you have dependents covered under your vision plan and they are asked for a member ID, they should use the same one you do (the last four of the primary subscriber’s social security number or a unique ID from the primary subscriber’s employer).
