Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) allow employees tax-free dollars to use for various healthcare expenses. It’s important to remember to use the entirety of the balance on your account by 2016, since many health insurance providers do not allow funds to roll over into the following year.
So, with just a few weeks left to take advantage of your 2015 FSA, JJ Eyes has some suggestions on how to best spend Flex dollars for your vision and eyewear needs.
Prescription Eyeglasses or Sunglasses: Of course, these qualify as medical devices, so Flex funds can be spent on both prescription lenses and frames. Pop in and try on some lovely new designer frames. We’re always getting new inventory to deliver the latest styles and trends to our customers! (Like us on Facebook for pictures of the latest shipments!)
Contact Lenses: Start your year off fresh with some new contact lenses! At JJ Eyes, our optometrists will help you find a lens with exactly the right amount of curve, thickness and diameter for your unique vision needs. We fit for toric, non-toric, monovision, and multi-focal lenses.
Eye Exams: We offer a complete eye exam given by our optometrist. Use your Flexible Spending Account balance to cover an eye exam at JJ Eyes. Exams involve a series of tests designed to evaluate your vision and check for eye diseases. Each test during the exam evaluates a different aspect of your vision or eye health.
