Maximize Your Vision Benefits: The Optometrist’s Guide to Spending Expiring Flex Dollars
🚨 Last Call! Use Your Flex Dollars Before They Vanish (Dec 31 Deadline!)
As the year winds down, many of us are starting to think about holidays, new year’s resolutions, and perhaps even those pesky flexible spending account (FSA) or health savings account (HSA) dollars. If you’re like most people, you’ve probably contributed to one of these accounts throughout the year, but have you used all your funds?
The Clock is Ticking: Don’t Lose Your Hard-Earned Money!
The biggest mistake many people make with their FSA dollars is letting them expire! Unlike HSAs, which typically roll over year to year, FSA funds are often “use-it-or-lose-it” by the end of your plan year (which for many, is the Dec 31 deadline). That means any money left in your account after that date could be forfeited. Imagine all those pre-tax dollars simply disappearing!
Your Vision: A Perfect Way to Maximize Your Vision Benefits!
The good news is that your vision care is a fantastic and often overlooked way to maximize your FSA/HSA benefits. From routine check-ups to new eyewear, there are numerous ways to spend your flex dollars and invest in your eye health.
💰 3 Smart Ways to Spend Expiring Funds
Here are some excellent ways to put your flex dollars to good use at our optometry office and avoid the “FSA deadline“:
-
Comprehensive Eye Exams: When was your last eye exam? Regular check-ups are crucial for maintaining good eye health and detecting potential issues early. Use your FSA/HSA for your next comprehensive exam! If you’re searching “what can I buy with FSA,” this essential service is fully covered.
-
New Prescription Glasses: Is your current prescription outdated? Are your frames looking a little worn, or do you simply want a stylish new look? Your HSA or FSA can cover the cost of new prescription glasses, including frames and lenses. We have a wide selection of styles to choose from! This is one of the easiest ways to utilize your expiring funds.
-
Stock Up on Contact Lenses: If you wear contact lenses, you know they’re an ongoing expense. Stock up on your contact lens supply before the year ends! Your flex dollars are perfect for covering the cost of daily, weekly, or monthly disposables, as well as solutions and other care products.
