As the end of the year draws near, it’s important to ensure you make the most of your health benefits, including any funds in your Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA). These benefits often have a “use-it-or-lose-it” clause, meaning unused funds may expire.
At Kennewick Vision Care in Washington, we’re here to help you invest in your eye health before time runs out. Below are some smart ways to use your remaining health benefits for eye wellness.
1. Request an Eye Health Assessment
One of the best ways to use your FSA/HSA funds is to request an eye health assessment. This comprehensive evaluation goes beyond a standard eye exam, utilizing advanced retinal imaging to detect early signs of conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, diabetic retinopathy, and high blood pressure.
Early detection can be the key to preventing serious health issues and maintaining optimal health.
2. Upgrade Your Glasses or Sunglasses
If you wear prescription glasses, now is the perfect time to consider upgrading to a new pair. FSA/HSA funds can be used to purchase prescription glasses or sunglasses.
Whether you’re looking for stylish frames, prescription sunglasses for outdoor activities, or even blue light lenses to reduce digital eye strain, this is a great way to invest in eyewear that supports your lifestyle.
3. Specialty Lenses for Visual Comfort
Specialty lenses can make a big difference in your day-to-day visual comfort. Progressive lenses, anti-glare coatings, and blue light filters are all options that can enhance your vision quality and reduce eye strain. Using your remaining benefits to invest in specialty lenses will not only improve your comfort but also help protect your vision.
4. Get a Backup Pair of Glasses
Having a backup pair of glasses can be incredibly useful, especially if you have an active lifestyle or tend to misplace your glasses. Your FSA/HSA funds can be used to purchase a second pair, ensuring that you always have the vision support you need.
