Protect your specs with Glasses Insurance

Prescription spectacles and contact lenses are invaluable to the people who need them in order to see, work and drive properly on a daily basis. Unfortunately they are small, delicate, fussy things and often find themselves stepped on, sat on, forgotten at parties and otherwise damaged or neglected.

But, as you will well know, if you have to wear glasses, the cost of replacing them can be extremely high, especially when you factor in the visits to the optometrist and the endless hours spent picking out the perfect pair of frames.

Which is why Glasses Insurance is there to save your sight.

If you can relate to the panic of trying to find a contact on the dance floor or a busy nightclub or using a pair of rusty pliers to try to bend your designer, fine wire prescription spectacles back into shape after an unfortunate incident with the washing machine, you can understand why a product like Glasses Insurance might be necessary.

What will Glasses Insurance protect my glasses against?

Your Glasses Insurance policy will indemnify you in case of the following:

Loss- that includes you forgetting them at a friend’s house after dinner, or on the edge of the bar on a night out.

Damage- which includes crushing, snapping, bending, shattering or otherwise breaking the frames and lenses.

Theft- just in case some dirty, rotten scoundrel figures out that he’s near-sighted in the exact same way you are.

Do I need Glasses Insurance if I have a Portable Possessions Policy?

They are indeed- but as is the case with all of the portable possessions that you wish to insure, if the value of your glasses exceeds the amount that you are insured for on your portable possessions policy, you will need to take out a separate, specific Glasses Insurance policy.
