 Conditions associated with the reimbursement

 Introduction of the program

This program comes into effect on September 1, 2019. Only purchases made from this date are eligible for reimbursement.

Place of purchase
To be eligible, purchases must be made from a merchant in Québec, either online or in-store.

Amount granted
A reimbursement of $250 can be requested for each child under the age of 18. This amount is fixed: it does not vary with the cost of your purchase.  

Receipt of cheque
The designated person responsible for the child on file at RAMQ (by default, the mother), will receive a cheque for $250 in the mail, no later than 3 weeks after the application is made.

 Deadline for submitting an application

You must submit your application within 12 months following the date of purchase.

Supporting documents
We may ask you for supporting documents should a verification be conducted following a reimbursement. Non-compliance may result in recovery of the amount of the reimbursement. It is therefore important for you to keep the following for 5 years:

• the invoice for the eyeglasses or contact lenses
• the prescription slip, if the eye examination was conducted outside Québec (RAMQ holds already the information for eye examinations conducted in Québec)

Frequency of applications

Applications for reimbursement may be made every two years, that is, a child for whom a reimbursement is received under the program must wait 2 years from the date of that qualifying purchase before being eligible again. For example, if you obtained a reimbursement for eyeglasses purchased on October 1, 2019, the next eligible purchase may be made as of October 1, 2021.
