HSA/FSA Benefits
Use Your Benefits Before They Expire!
Flexible spending accounts (FSA) and health savings accounts (HSA) are programs that allow you to set aside money (pre-tax) for health care expenses – in this case, vision care. If you’re not sure whether or not you have a FSA or HSA for vision care, please check with your employer or insurance provider for further information. You can use the FSA or HSA card like any credit/debit cards during check out to process the payment and/or simply select Pay with FLEX at checkout.
If you don’t have a FSA or HSA, you can still send in the receipt to your insurance carrier for reimbursement if your vision insurance coverage includes out-of-network benefits.
