Don’t Let Your Vision Insurance Benefits Expire!

Nov 28, 2024

As the end of the year approaches, it’s the perfect time to take a closer look at your vision insurance benefits.

Many insurance plans operate on a “use-it-or-lose-it” basis. This means any unused benefits will expire on December 31.

At New Baltimore Optometry, we’re here to help you make the most of your coverage before it’s too late!

Why Use Your Vision Benefits Now?

Maximize your vision benefits by taking advantage of these key opportunities:

  1. Coverage for Routine Exams: Most vision insurance plans include coverage for an annual comprehensive eye exam. If you haven’t had yours this year, now’s the time to schedule. Routine exams are essential for monitoring your eye health, updating your prescription, and detecting potential issues early.
  2. Save on Eyewear and Contacts: Many insurance plans offer allowances or discounts for prescription eyeglasses, frames, and contact lenses. These benefits can significantly reduce out-of-pocket costs but won’t roll over into the new year. If you’ve been eyeing a new pair of glasses or need to stock up on contact lenses, it’s a great time to act.
  3. Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs): If you have a Flexible Spending Account tied to your insurance, remember that these funds often have a year-end deadline. Use your FSA to cover out-of-pocket expenses like co-pays, prescription sunglasses, or specialized lenses.

Avoid the Year-End Rush for Vision Appointments

Appointments tend to fill up quickly in November and December as patients near the deadline for using their benefits.

To ensure you get a time that works for your schedule, we encourage you to book your visit to New Baltimore Optometry in New Baltimore as soon as possible.
