How hard is this claim to file?

If you received a notice from Eye Physicians of Central Florida about the November 2023 data breach, you must file a claim to receive any cash payment or credit monitoring — there is no automatic payment. This claim form asks for 6 fields and 5 documents.

What the form asks

  • — The unique ID printed on your settlement notice letter. (The notice letter mailed to you by Eye Physicians of Central Florida about the 2023 data breach.)
  • — The PIN printed on your settlement notice letter. (Same notice letter as your unique ID.)
  • — Choose one: documented ordinary losses, documented extraordinary losses, or credit monitoring services. (Described in the settlement notice and claim form options.)
  • — Number of hours (up to three) spent resolving issues caused by the breach, with a description of those efforts. (Your own records or calendar notes of time spent contacting banks, credit agencies, etc.)
  • — Upload or attach receipts, invoices, and a description of lost time related to the breach. (Credit card statements, bank fee notices, credit monitoring subscription receipts, postage receipts.)
  • — Upload or attach bank/credit card statements showing fraudulent charges, police reports, communications with financial institutions, and proof of exhausting other reimbursement options. (Your bank, credit card issuer, local police department, and any insurer that denied a related claim.)

Documents you'll need

Watch out for

  • Online claims require the unique ID and PIN from your settlement notice — without these you cannot file online.
  • Extraordinary loss claims require proof that you exhausted all other available insurance or reimbursement options before claiming from this settlement.
  • The settlement is not yet final; payments will only be issued after the court grants final approval.
  • You must choose between filing a claim and opting out — opting out preserves your right to sue separately but means you receive nothing from this settlement.

We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.
