A while back. the Government of Qu\u00e9bec launched a kids glasses program called See Better to Succeed program<\/a>. For parents, this was good news because the program helps make prescription glasses more affordable for their kids. Making sight more accessible has our mission since the start, so we wholeheartedly support this initiative. And because we know just how essential sight is for the cognitive development of children, we offer parents the opportunity to get three pairs of glasses for each of their little ones through this program (because life happens and glasses get broken).<\/p>\n

How the RAMQ Program Works<\/h3>\n

It is very simple. Go to one of our points with your child aged 17 and under (don't forget their prescription). Take advantage of our good advice and our wide selection of frames, choose three pairs for your child and pay the required $300 amount.<\/p>\n

Then, visit your Carnet Sant\u00e9 account<\/a> to submit your refund request. It is important to note that you must be registered with the Service d’authentification gouvernementale<\/a> to log in.<\/p>\n

All children under 18 with a valid Medicare card are eligible for the program once every two years.<\/p>\n

Why We Offer 3 Pairs of Glasses For The Amount Reimbursed<\/h3>\n

If you buy frames from a big-name optical brand, chances are the program\u2019s reimbursement maximum will only cover one pair.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s fine.<\/p>\n

But when we learned about the program, we immediately started to think about how it could help make good eyesight more accessible. By offering parents three pairs for the cost of what\u2019s covered by the program<\/a>, we offer them additional peace of mind should their kids lose or break their glasses within two years of their purchase (seeing as the reimbursement is only available once every two years). Doing business with us lets parents make the most of this program while helping their kids see better and succeed.<\/p>\n

The See Better to Succeed program is good, even if it could be even better, but it represents a giant leap in terms of accessibility in the field of optical care. Expanding the program would be an outstanding opportunity. Let's hope that our elected officials seize it.<\/p>\n
