As the year comes to a close, it’s time to ensure you’re making the most of your vision benefits before they expire. At Vision Center Ltd and Waterbury Eye Associates, we want to help you maximize your benefits. Whether you have a Flexible Spending Account (FSA), a Health Savings Account (HSA), or a vision plan, December is the perfect time to schedule an appointment and use those benefits toward eye care and eyewear.
Understand your FSA benefits
If you have an FSA, you’re likely aware that these funds have a “use it or lose it” policy, meaning any unspent money at the end of the year will be forfeited. FSAs can cover a wide range of vision-related expenses, including eye exams, prescription glasses, contact lenses, and even some over-the-counter eye care products. Don’t let your hard-earned dollars go to waste; schedule an appointment with us to ensure your vision needs are met before the year ends.
Maximize your vision plan
Vision plans often include routine eye exams and discounts on eyewear or contact lenses. Many plans operate on an annual basis, resetting at the start of the new year. If you haven’t yet taken advantage of your annual benefits, December is your last chance! A comprehensive eye exam not only checks your vision but can also detect early signs of eye diseases. Our eye doctor will provide a thorough examination and help you select the perfect eyewear to suit your style and needs.
Consider using your HSA funds
While Health Savings Accounts offer the flexibility of rolling over funds year after year, it’s still a good idea to use these benefits when you need them, especially for larger expenses. HSAs can be used to pay for qualified vision expenses, which include eye exams, glasses, and contact lenses. Taking care of your eye health is crucial, and using your HSA can help reduce the immediate financial impact of these necessary expenses.
Treat yourself to new eyewear
The end of the year is an excellent time to treat yourself to a new pair of glasses or stock up on contact lenses. With a range of unique styles and designer eyewear at our eye care centers, we can help you find the perfect frames that fit your lifestyle and fashion preferences. We will also recommend the best lens options to suit your hobbies, profession, and unique vision needs.
