Short answer: as of 4 November 2026, we have not found a new active national Bonus Vista scheme in Italy in the official sources checked. The former €50 grant was funded for 2021–2023, with an application deadline of 31 December 2023. It must not be presented as a voucher currently available to new applicants.
A former grant, not a permanent discount
The original scheme supported the purchase of prescription glasses or corrective contact lenses for eligible households with an ISEE no higher than €10,000. It offered a voucher or reimbursement under the deadlines and rules applicable at the time. These historical conditions are not an invitation to submit a new application in 2026.
Tax relief is a different subject
Italian healthcare tax relief may still apply to eligible prescription eyewear. It is not a €50 voucher and does not automatically reduce the price at checkout. Our guide to Italian tax relief on glasses and contact lenses explains the 19% rate, the annual threshold and the documents to check. These are Italian rules, not a general entitlement for buyers throughout Europe.
Employer benefits and local schemes
Employers, health funds and other organisations may offer separate benefits. Check eligibility, deadlines and reimbursement conditions directly with the organisation concerned; an individual scheme should not be confused with a national Bonus Vista renewal.
Choosing glasses without relying on a bonus

For a complete single-vision option, explore SINALIO complete glasses from €49, subject to the conditions and compatibility shown on the landing page. This is an online commercial offer, not a public subsidy.
