45.4.4.2 Replacements
Clients younger than 21 years of age may obtain replacements of nonprosthetic eyewear because of loss or destruction. Clients 21 years of age and older are not eligible for replacements because of loss or destruction of nonprosthetic eyewear. There is no limitation on the number of replacements a client younger than 21 years of age may receive. If eyewear is lost or destroyed, the provider must have the client sign the "Vision Care Eyeglass Patient (Medicaid Client) Certification Form". Replacement codes must be used to ensure accurate processing.
