FSA dollars can be used to pay for eye exams, glasses, and contact lenses
FSA stands for Flexible Spending Account or Flexible Spending Arrangement. It is a special type of account where a person deposits money that can be used to pay for certain out-of-pocket healthcare expenses. FSAs are often used in conjunction with a workplace health insurance plan and are sponsored by employers, who may choose to match or make deposits into employee FSA accounts. The money deposited into an FSA account is never taxed, even when spent.
FSA funds can also be used to pay for laser eye surgery, such as LASIK. However, since LASIK usually costs more than the maximum amount that can be contributed to an FSA, the funds will not fully cover the cost of the procedure.
It is important to note that FSAs have to be used within the current tax year and may have a “use it or lose it” aspect to some of the funds.
LensCrafters accepts a wide array of vision insurance plans, including large plans like Aetna Vision, Blue View Vision, EyeMed, and Humana. They also accept FSA benefits on prescription glasses, prescription sunglasses, contact lenses, or eye exams.
