If you have a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA), you already know these funds can be used for essential healthcare expenses. But did you know they also cover prescription eyewear, specialty contact lenses, and advanced vision solutions? Investing in high-quality vision care can enhance your daily comfort, improve eye health, and even reduce headaches and digital eye strain.
Below, our Spring eye care team at Family Vision Solutions discusses different ways you can make the most of your HSA/FSA, including Neurolens.
Using HSA/FSA for Specialty Contact Lenses
Standard glasses and contact lenses correct vision, but specialty contact lenses go a step further by addressing complex vision problems. These lenses may include:
- Scleral lenses for those with keratoconus, dry eye syndrome, or irregular corneas.
- Hybrid lenses that combine the comfort of soft lenses with the crisp vision of rigid lenses.
- Custom soft lenses for individuals with unique prescription needs.
Since specialty lenses are often considered medically necessary, they are eligible for HSA/FSA reimbursement, allowing you to receive top-tier vision correction without financial strain. This is where Neurolens comes in.
Neurolens: A Game-Changer for Eye Comfort in Spring
One of the most exciting advancements in eye care is Neurolens, an innovative solution designed to address headaches, dizziness, and digital eye strain. Unlike traditional blue-light-blocking lenses, Neurolens correct eye misalignment to reduce strain on the visual system.
How Neurolens Works
Many people experience binocular vision dysfunction (BVD)—a condition where the eyes struggle to work together, leading to symptoms such as double vision, headaches, fatigue and more. Neurolens uses specialized prism technology to realign the eyes and relieve these symptoms. The benefits include:
- Fewer headaches: A common issue for those who spend long hours on screens.
- Reduced dizziness: Especially for individuals with eye misalignment.
- Greater comfort with digital screens: Ideal for professionals, students, and anyone using computers or smartphones regularly.
Unlike basic blue-light lenses, which only filter out certain light wavelengths, Neurolens targets the root cause of discomfort. If you frequently suffer from headaches or feel fatigued after working on a computer, Neurolens could be a life-changing investment.
Maximize Your Benefits Before They Expire
Investing in specialty contact lenses or Neurolens is a smart way to use your benefits while improving your long-term eye health.
Don’t wait until the last minute—schedule an eye exam today and explore how your HSA/FSA can help you upgrade your vision care. Better eye comfort starts with making the most of your available benefits.
