Do you wear glasses or contact lenses? Find out what costs CSS covers for children and adults.

Adults: participation in spectacle lenses & contact lenses

Mandatory basic insurance doesn’t cover any costs of your visual aid. So if you want to make sure you're better protected, it's worth taking out myFlex Outpatient Insurance.

How much you get

We’ll cover a share of the cost of your spectacle lenses and contact lenses with a contribution per calendar year.

CHF 150 with myFlex Outpatient Insurance, Balance.
CHF 300 a year with myFlex Outpatient Insurance, Premium.
