Insurance Coverage

Silverstein Eye Centers participates in most major medical and vision insurance plans. And we are pleased to announce that effective June 2018, Silverstein Eye Centers is also an approved eye care provider for patients with Humana Gold insurance.

Treatment of many eye conditions is covered by insurance, including Medicare. Your out-of-pocket expenses for Medicare or private insurance will depend on the type of insurance, type of procedure, whether you have supplemental insurance and whether you have a deductible. Most insurance companies do not cover vision correction surgeries.

For your convenience, we process all insurance claims on your behalf.

If you have questions about what or how much is covered by your private healthcare insurance, contact your plan provider or call our billing department at 816-595-3920.

We are committed to delivering the highest quality patient care.

Our Specialties:

Premium Lens Implants

Premium lens implants provide a continuous range of vision from near to far. In contrast to standard lens implants which require glasses for distance or close-up vision, premium lens implants expand your range of functional vision for both distance and near vision. Corrective eyewear may still be necessary for some activities, but the freedom from glasses and contact lenses is incredible. Learn more about our Premium Lens Implant options.

Diseases of the Cornea

A healthy cornea is critical to your vision and general health. When your cornea is damaged by injury, infection, or disease, your ability to focus is compromised because the incoming light can be distorted or blocked. Steven Silverstein MD, FACS is a fellowship-trained cornea specialist. He is an internationally renowned expert, and will expertly treat any corneal issues you may have.

Ask us about Prokera, a biologic corneal bandage that has natural therapeutic actions known to heal the eye faster with less pain, scarring, and inflammation.

Treatment of Cataracts

If you have been diagnosed with cataracts, cataract surgery is the only way to restore your vision. Your choice of a cataract surgeon can have a significant impact on the quality of your results, so choosing your cataract surgeon carefully is worth the time and effort. At Silverstein Eye Centers, we use only the most advanced technology for laser-assisted cataract surgery. Learn more about cataract treatment options.

Lasik Procedures

LASIK laser vision correction has enabled millions of people who are nearsighted, farsighted, or have astigmatism, to reduce or eliminate their dependence on glasses or contacts. Dr. Silverstein has been performing LASIK procedures since the technology first became available, and is an expert in the field. Learn more about LASIK vision correction.

Comprehensive Eye Exams

Proactive eye care starts with routine examinations. Our complete examination will reveal any eye problems, even hidden ones you may not be aware of.

If you have diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, arthritis, elevated cholesterol, or thyroid disease, your vision and the health of your eyes could be affected. Also, certain medications can cause visual problems, which is why it’s so important to have your eyes examined on a regular basis. Contact us today to schedule your next appointment!
