AI Summary
This bill expands the definition of "portable electronics insurance" to include "eyewear insurance," meaning that insurance policies and licenses will now cover both portable electronic devices and eyewear. It defines "eyewear" to include smart glasses and non-electronic eyewear like prescription and non-prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses, and revises the definition of "portable electronics" to encompass a broader range of personal, portable electronic equipment. The bill also clarifies that a single limited license is sufficient to sell or offer both types of insurance, and that specific provisions related to licensing, examinations, and claims handling for portable electronics insurance will now apply to eyewear insurance as well, with an effective date of July 1, 2026.
