Insurance education

Care can be costly, especially for an ongoing condition like glaucoma or ocular hypertension. So we’ve created an insurance education guide you can download below. Here’s an overview of insurance types and considerations.

Types of insurance coverage:

  • Medicare: A federal government health insurance program for people 65 years of age or older and younger people with disabilities.
  • Medicaid: Joint federal and state program that helps cover medical costs for people with limited income and resources
  • Commercial insurance: This private insurance often comes through an employer-sponsored health insurance plan but can also be bought through the Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace

Choosing the right coverage can be confusing and challenging. Here are some questions to help you learn more about which plan might be best for you:

  • What does the insurance plan cover?
  • How much does the plan cost?
  • What are the plan’s limitations?
  • Is my current doctor covered by this plan?
  • What is this plan’s prescription drug coverage like?
  • Can I reduce my out-of-pocket responsibility?

Questions to ask your doctor

Important Safety Information

iDose TR is gently placed directly inside your eye by your eye doctor.

You should not have iDose TR if you have an infection or suspected infection in your eye or the area surrounding your eye, have corneal endothelial cell dystrophy, a condition in which the clear front layer of your eye (cornea) has lost its ability to work normally as this can cause vision problems, have had a corneal transplant or cells transplanted to the inner layer of the cornea (endothelial cell transplant), are allergic to any of its ingredients, and/or have narrow angles (the iris and the cornea are too close together).

The most common side effect of iDose TR was increased eye pressure. Other common side effects were inflammation of the iris, dry eye, a loss of part of the usual field of vision, eye pain, eye redness and reduced clearness of vision.
