Have you had an eye exam lately? Maybe it’s time to get your eyes checked!

The good news – your Flexible Spending Account covers lots of expenses related to eye care to help ensure you stay on top of your eye health.

Even if you don’t currently wear glasses or contact lenses, you can use the money in your medical spending account to pay for an eye exam, which doctors recommend. If your doctor determines the need for vision correction during your exam, your FSA gives you options there as well.

Curious about LASIK? Now is a good time to ask your eye care professional about that, as well. Your FSA covers LASIK as well. Check with your FSA administrator about additional eye care expenses covered by your account.

In other words, you don’t need vision insurance to see an eye doctor – and you don’t need insurance to pay for the visit. Most eye doctors, like many physicians, have special rates for non-insured patients. Use your FSA for this payment.

The money invested in an FSA account can pay for a vision exam, and it can give people a wide variety of choices when it comes to eye care accessories. For example, people looking to buy prescription eyeglasses can choose between bifocal lenses, reading glasses, specialty lenses, and even safety lenses. Anti-reflective or changeable tint lenses are also covered.

What about Sunglasses, Contacts & Accessories

Sunglasses, prescription and nonprescription, can be purchased through an FSA, with further customization options, such as colors, polarized, and mirrored sunglasses. Sport-specific eyewear is also covered.

Lastly, accessories — like saline solutions, contact lens solution, wetting drops, and eyeglass cleaning supplies — can all be purchased with funds from your flexible spending account.
