About VUITY
What is this medication?
VUITY is a prescription eye drop approved by the FDA to treat presbyopia, a common age-related condition that makes it difficult to focus on objects up close. This condition typically affects adults over the age of 40 and often leads to the need for reading glasses or bifocals. By using this medication once daily, individuals may experience improved near and intermediate vision, allowing them to perform tasks like reading small print or viewing a smartphone screen more clearly.
The medication works by using its active ingredient, pilocarpine, to constrict the pupil to an optimal size. This creates a pinhole effect that increases the depth of focus, allowing the eye to see close-up items with greater clarity without significantly affecting distance vision. While the effects are temporary and do not permanently cure the underlying condition, the drops offer a non-invasive way to manage blurry near vision for several hours throughout the day.

How to read this:plans on the same formulary share tier + PA rules. Your specific plan's copay depends on (a) the tier above, (b) your plan's cost-share for that tier, (c) whether you're in the initial coverage phase or past the 2026 $2,000 out-of-pocket cap. For your exact plan, check its Summary of Benefits or log in to your Medicare.gov account. Copay cards don't apply to Medicare (federal law).
