Regaining Access to Your VSP Online Account
⚠️ Cannot access account / Forgot username or password
Cause: You've forgotten your login credentials or are having trouble accessing your digital portal.
Solution: On the login page, click the Forgot username or password? link. You will need to provide the primary member's first name, last name, date of birth, and either the last 4 digits of their SSN or their Member ID to retrieve your username or reset your password. If you encounter persistent issues, contact VSP Member Services for assistance.
⚠️ Difficulty creating a new account
Cause: You may have an existing VSP online account already.
Solution: First, try using the Forgot username or password? option. If that doesn't resolve the issue, contact VSP Member Services for direct support.
⚠️ Unable to change username or password
Cause: Password requirements are not met, or you're trying to change your username incorrectly.
Solution: To change your password, log in, go to Member Details at the top, then My Account, and find the Change My Password section. Your new password must be at least 8 characters long and include at least three of these four elements: an uppercase letter, a lowercase letter, a number, and a special character. You cannot reuse your existing password or any of your ten previous passwords, and it should not contain your name or username. To change your username, you must unregister your current account and create a new one.
⚠️ Need to update vision plan enrollment details
Cause: Changes made in your online account do not directly modify your official enrollment information.
Solution: To update any enrollment information related to your VSP vision plan, such as correcting personal details, you must contact your benefits administrator. Updates made within your vsp.com online account only apply to that digital profile.

Q: Can I access my VSP member ID card online?
Yes, your VSP member ID card is readily available through your online account.

You can also save a digital copy or add it to your digital wallet.
Q: What can I do once I'm logged into my VSP member account?
Once logged into your VSP member account, you can perform various actions. You can view your benefit details, manage your account information, update email preferences, find an in-network eye doctor, review your claim history, submit out-of-network claims, and access exclusive member offers and savings. Your dashboard serves as a central point for all these vision benefits.
Q: How do I submit a claim for out-of-network services?
If you received services from an out-of-network provider, you can submit a claim for reimbursement online through your VSP member account.

Q: How do I update my VSP vision plan enrollment information?
Changes to your official VSP vision plan enrollment details, such as correcting a typo in your name or updating your date of birth, must be handled through your benefits administrator. Updates made within your vsp.com online profile only affect your online account, not your core plan enrollment.
