Differences Between HSA and FSA Regarding Vision Costs

You may be wondering if the money you've been carefully putting into a flexible spending account (FSA) or health savings account (HSA) is in jeopardy. Some of these accounts have a "use it or lose it" policy to them, requiring you to spend what you put into them before the calendar year is out. If you have money sitting in your account, you may not be sure what to do with it. The good news is there are a lot of unexpected avenues for spending those unused funds, including vision care through EyeCare Associates.

To help you decide how to use these dollars, here's a look at exactly how FSAs and HSAs work and what vision costs you can cover with them. While there are some differences between HSAs and FSAs when it comes to vision costs, the team at EyeCare Associates has broken it down for you below.

What EyeCare Associates Vision Products are FSA Eligible?

Typically, FSAs and HSAs can pay for most prescription vision correction solutions. Unfortunately, non-prescription products do not qualify as an expense you can use FSA or HSA funds for. This includes regular sunglasses and computer glasses that filter out blue light.
