Can I use someone else's Insurance for myself?

Can I use someone else's Insurance for myself?

Dear ${Cases.Contact Name}​,

If you are registered as a dependent under that particular persons' insurance, then you may use it. Otherwise, unfortunately, you cannot.

However, even without insurance coverage, all you will have to pay for an eye test is a one-time registration fee of RWF 1,000 after which you will be eligible for FREE eye tests for the rest of your life at any Optica branch with our qualified Optometrists.

The price of our frames starts from RWF 7,900 upwards and lens prices start from RWF 14,000. 

Please keep in mind these prices may vary depending upon your prescription.

You may find your nearest Optica here: https://rw.optica.africa/pages/store-locator


Please let us know if we can assist you further.  

We look forward to seeing you at Optica.
