As we approach the end of the year, it’s time to make the most of your vision insurance benefits before they reset. Many vision insurance plans, as well as flexible spending accounts (FSAs), operate on a “use it or lose it” basis. If you haven’t yet scheduled your annual eye exam, contact lens fitting, or browsed for new frames, now is the time to act!
Why Year-End Eye Care is a Smart Choice
Comprehensive Eye Exams for Lasting Eye Health
Your annual eye exam is crucial for both eye health and vision accuracy. During a comprehensive exam at iSight of Ida Grove, our eye doctors don’t just check your prescription—they also assess your eyes for early signs of conditions like:
- Glaucoma
- Cataracts
- Macular Degeneration
- Diabetic Eye Disease
Catching these issues early makes a significant difference in long-term eye health. Most vision insurance plans cover an annual eye exam, which makes this an excellent way to use your benefits before they reset for 2025.
Find Your New Look with Designer Frames
The end of the year is a great time to refresh your look with a new pair of glasses. Many vision insurance plans cover part or all of the cost of prescription eyewear, which can include designer frames and specialty lenses.
Plus, we offer a wide selection of frames to fit every taste, whether you prefer classic, trendy, or minimalist styles. Enhance your comfort and visual clarity by choosing from our specialty lens options, such as:
- Blue-Light Blocking Lenses
- Anti-Reflective Coatings
- Progressive Lenses
Investing in high-quality frames and lenses not only improves how you see but also ensures your eyewear suits your lifestyle and enhances your comfort, particularly if you spend long hours on digital devices.
Contact Lens Exams for Clear, Comfortable Vision
For contact lens wearers, an annual fitting ensures that your lenses fit well and your prescription is accurate. Eyes can change over time, affecting the comfort and effectiveness of your lenses. Our team of experienced eye doctors provides personalized contact lens fittings and assessments to guarantee the best possible fit and clarity.
Whether you’re interested in daily disposables, toric lenses for astigmatism, or multifocal options, our staff will guide you to the right choice.
With many vision insurance plans covering contact lens exams, it’s a smart way to use your benefits and ensure clear, comfortable vision into the new year.
Don’t Forget to Maximize Your FSA Benefits
If you have an FSA, remember that these funds also typically expire at the end of the year. Here are some practical ways to use your FSA for eye care:
- Order Extra Contacts: Stock up on contact lenses to ensure you’re prepared for the coming months.
- Upgrade to Specialty Lenses: Many FSAs cover specialty lenses like blue-light blocking or anti-glare coatings, which can significantly improve comfort and visual clarity.
- Prescription Sunglasses: Protect your eyes from UV rays with prescription sunglasses, a stylish and practical investment that’s also FSA-eligible.
