As the year winds down, it’s time to prioritize your eye health while making the most of your Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA) funds. At The Eye Care Center, we’re dedicated to helping you protect your vision and overall well-being through our eye health wellness assessment.
This cutting-edge diagnostic exam, paired with expert guidance on eyewear and lenses, offers a proactive way to care for your eyes while maximizing your healthcare benefits before they expire.
The Importance of the Eye Health Wellness Assessment
FSAs and HSAs are financial accounts that allow you to set aside pre-tax dollars for qualified medical expenses, including eye care. It's important to note that FSA funds typically have a "use-it-or-lose-it" policy, meaning any unused funds may be forfeited at the end of the plan year.
HSAs, on the other hand, allow funds to roll over year to year, but utilizing them for current health needs can be a wise investment.
Invest in Comprehensive Eye Exams
Your eyes can provide key insights into your overall health. Our comprehensive eye exams utilize advanced retinal imaging to detect early signs of a variety of conditions, including:
- Glaucoma
- Age-related macular degeneration (AMD)
- Diabetic retinopathy
- Hypertension
- Other systemic health issues
Detecting these problems early allows for timely intervention, which can protect your vision and prevent more serious health concerns. This assessment is non-invasive, quick, and incredibly valuable for maintaining both your eye and overall health.
How to Use FSA/HSA Funds for Vision Care
If you’ve contributed to an FSA or HSA this year, now is the time to use those funds before they potentially expire. Vision care expenses are eligible, making them a smart choice for maximizing your benefits. At The Eye Care Center, you can use FSA/HSA funds for:
- The Eye Health Wellness Assessment: Take a proactive step to safeguard your health.
- New Frames or Prescription Glasses: Choose from our selection of high-quality eyewear to suit your style and needs.
- Contact Lenses: Stock up on daily, monthly, or specialty lenses.
