Using Flex Plans and HSA for LASIK and PRK

Flexible Spending Accounts, HSAs, and Cafeteria Plans allow you to allocate a portion of your paychecks to be placed into a tax-free account to use for non-reimbursable medical expenses, such as LASIK. These plans can help you save a significant amount off your procedure. Most HSAs, FSAs, and FLEX plans have strict rules for how and when you can use these funds, so make sure you fully understand the details of your plan before you enroll.

Guidelines to Follow for Flex Plans

1. Make sure you are a good candidate for LASIK by having a consultation with an experienced doctor
2. Find out your company’s deadline for open enrollment to sign up for Flexible Spending Plans
3. Determine how much money you should allocate to your account to cover the cost of your procedure. Your doctor should be able to tell you this during your consultation
4. Use your allocated funds before the time limit runs out

If you have any questions about using your FLEX spending account or HSA for LASIK, please call us and we’ll walk you through the process.

Not All Pricing is Equal – Read the Fine Print!

If you are considering LASIK or PRK from a center that is offering significantly lower costs, make sure you read the “fine print” to learn exactly what level of care and technology you get for that price. You may find that you will be charged extra for things that are normally included in the LASIK cost at Inland Eye LASIK. Things included in our price, that may not be covered at all LASIK centers, include pre-operative exams, 1-year post-operative care, and enhancements, if necessary.

Health Insurance vs. Vision Insurance: What’s the Difference?

Understanding which insurance applies to your eye care visit can feel confusing. That’s why we created this short video to explain the difference between health insurance and vision insurance, and when each one is used.

Both health and vision insurance play an important role in keeping your eyes healthy and your vision clear:

• Health insurance generally covers medical eye exams and treatments related to eye health — such as glaucoma, cataracts, or eye injuries.
• Vision insurance helps with how you see day-to-day. It often covers routine eye exams, prescription glasses, contact lenses, and other vision services.
• Some plans (like Medicare) may cover certain medical services but not routine refraction tests for glasses prescriptions.
• Even if adult vision benefits aren’t included, most health plans provide children’s vision services.

To make the most of your benefits, please:

• Bring both your health insurance card and, if you have one, your vision insurance card to your appointment.
• Provide a printed list of all current medications.
• Ask our friendly staff any questions — we’re here to help.
