5 ways to use your vision benefits before they expire

Explore five ways you can use your vision benefits at your neighborhood Pearle Vision so you don't waste them!

It’s important to stay up to date on your health and take full advantage of your yearly health benefits. Here are 5 ways you can use your vision benefits at your neighborhood Pearle Vision.

1. Use up your FSA/HSA

 

Most FSA/HSA plans don’t roll your funds over into the following year. It’s smart to put that hard-earned money to good use on your vision, rather than risk losing what you’ve already saved. The best part about these dollars is they can be used on all sorts of eye care needs, such as an eye exam, frames, lenses or even prescription sunglasses!

 

 

2. Secure a backup pair

 

It may be helpful to have a backup pair of glasses for when you may need them. Keep your family a step ahead by using your FSA or vision benefits on a backup pair of glasses before it’s too late.

 

 

3. Get prescription sunglasses

 

A pair of prescription sunglasses can help protect your eyes from harmful UV rays, as well as dirt and dust, so you can see your work more clearly.

 

 

4. Upgrade to blue light filtering lenses

 

With so much happening from home on our screens these days, our eyes are being exposed to a lot of blue light. Blue light filtering lenses can help prevent digital eye strain and they’re available in both kids’ and adults’ frames at your neighborhood Pearle Vision. We also have non-prescription blue light lenses!

 

 

5. Take advantage of our best offer

 

We accept all major vision plans, as well as flexible payment options through CareCredit. We  also have promotions so you can take care of your eyes without breaking the bank.

 

 

Don’t let your vision benefits go to waste! Schedule an eye exam at your neighborhood Pearle Vision today.

Key takeaways

 

  1. Most vision insurance plans operate on a calendar year or plan year, meaning unused benefits - including exam allowances and frame or contact lens allowances - expire and do not roll over.
  2. Common ways to maximize benefits before the year ends include scheduling an annual eye exam, purchasing a new pair of glasses or sunglasses, upgrading to premium lenses, stocking up on contact lenses, or buying a backup pair of eyeglasses.
  3. Pearle Vision's eye care professionals can help patients understand and fully utilize their plan's benefits, ensuring they get maximum value before the coverage resets.
