Vision

Vision Service Plan (VSP) is the national leader in providing eye health management.

This printable card provides instructions on how to use your VSP insurance. To use the card, click on the picture and download it to your computer. Then fill in your personalized information next to “Client ID,” “My Eyecare Provider,” and “Phone.” This card is not required for use of insurance, it’s merely a tool to help you organize your information.

To protect your personal information, Colby uses your Workday Employee ID in place of your social security number when creating your VSP account. As a result, when you visit the eye doctor, you will need to provide a 9-digit version of your Colby Workday Employee ID number (for example, if your ID number were 12345, you would make this number 9 digits by adding zeros to the beginning: 000012345), not your social security number.

VSP complements our current benefits by providing examinations, lenses, frames or contact lenses with reasonable co-pays. The individual monthly rate is $8.74 and the family rate is $18.78. Dependents are eligible up to age 26.

  • 2025 VSP Member Benefits Summary

The vision benefits listed above are only for those who elect VSP coverage. There is not a card provided with the VSP plan. VSP uses the employee’s Colby Workday Employee ID number (with leading zeroes) to substitute for a social security number.
