At Pacific Eye Institute we are always looking for new ways to help our patients afford their very best vision. We would be happy to explain these options in more detail. Read on to learn more.
Insurance Benefits
By this time of year, many people have already met their insurance deductible and can have eye exams or vision procedures at little or no cost. Insurance deductibles reset at the beginning of the year. It’s important to get the eye care treatment process started now so you have plenty of time to learn about the procedure, decide what treatment options are best for your unique lifestyle and have your procedure(s) before the end of 2019.
Flex Plans
If the company you work for offers a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA), you can choose to enroll in the program and have a portion of your pre-tax wages placed into the account. That means your taxable income is lowered and you can save money on eye care procedures that aren’t covered by insurance. LASIK vision correction and cataract surgery are just a couple of examples.
Alert: these plans have many rules. You must use the money you save within a certain timeframe or you may lose it. So, have an eye exam with us before you enroll to make sure the procedure you want is right for your eyes.
