What is Dental and Vision Coverage for Medicare?

While Original Medicare and most Medicare Supplement plans do not cover routine dental and vision care, many Medicare Advantage plans include these benefits. Dental and vision coverage helps with essential care such as routine check-ups, cleanings, fillings, eyeglasses, and even more complex procedures like root canals or cataract surgery.
