It was a campaign promise from candidate Macron: the rest at zero charge on glasses, dental and hearing aids. The hearing will wait a little longer, but since January 1 you can be fully supported on some of your treatments.
Opticians must now offer about fifty frames different: 17 models to choose from for adults, 10 for children. And, each time, in two different colors. For glasses, in addition to your correction, you can request that the glasses be treated with an anti-reflective, anti-scratch or that they be thinned.
If you want a more original pair, brand or with high quality glasses, you will have to pay for it out of your pocket. It is estimated that fully reimbursed glasses will represent between 20% and 40% of optical care sold.
100% reimbursed crown
For dental care, certain crowns and bridges are affected. If you need a crown on an incisor for example, you are entitled to a 100% reimbursed white crown, the same shade as your other teeth. On the other hand, for a molar, a tooth at the back of the mouth, you will be entitled to a metal crown, a gray tooth.
A piece of advice, if you absolutely want care, request a quote with the 100% health offer. Your dentist should tell you about it, but you can never be too careful.
