Infant Contact Lens Program
What is covered for Infant Contact Lenses?
Contact lenses for congenital disorders in infants are eligible for rebate when prescribed by an ophthalmologist and the costs are not paid through other provincial or federal programs. Manitoba Health will provide one lens per eye, per infant. The maximum allowable reimbursement is $190.00 for a single lens and $380.00 for bilateral lenses.
How do I submit a claim?
When you pay for the lenses, obtain a claim form from the ophthalmologist, optometrist or ophthalmic dispenser. Please send the completed form to the address below:
