Are eye exams a covered benefit under TRICARE Prime?
Yes, eye examinations are authorized every 2 years as a clinical preventive service. Prime enrollees who are diabetic are allowed an annual comprehensive eye examination. Contact TriWest at 1-888-TRIWEST (1-888-874-9378) for more specific information. Retired Prime – one every two years, ADFM – one every year, at a network provider only. If you choose to go a non-network provider, the claim will not pay unless there is an authorization on file.
