As the end of the year approaches, it’s the perfect time to ensure you use your Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA) funds to their fullest potential. These accounts help you invest in your health, including critical aspects like vision care.
At Kips Bay Optical in New York, we provide services and eyewear options that allow you to maximize these benefits while safeguarding your eye health.

What Is an Eye Health Wellness Assessment?
An eye health wellness assessment goes beyond the standard eye exam, offering an in-depth evaluation of your ocular and overall health.
Our state-of-the-art technology enables us to detect potential health issues early, including:
- Glaucoma: A silent condition that can lead to irreversible vision loss if not treated promptly
- Macular Degeneration: A major cause of visual impairment, particularly among older adults
- Diabetic Retinopathy: A diabetes-related condition that can damage blood vessels in the retina, often without noticeable symptoms initially
- Hypertension-Related Eye Issues: High blood pressure can impact eye health, making early detection crucial
Learn more about retinal imaging and diagnostics to see how we stay ahead in detecting these conditions.
Identifying these conditions early allows us to implement effective management strategies to protect your vision and overall well-being.
Why Act Now on FSA/HSA Benefits?
Understanding how FSA and HSA funds work is key to maximizing their value.
- FSA Funds: Most FSA plans operate on a “use-it-or-lose-it” policy, meaning unused funds will expire at the end of the calendar year
- HSA Funds: While more flexible, HSA accounts are still a smart choice for funding qualified health expenses, offering significant tax savings
Here are some services and products eligible for FSA/HSA coverage:
- Eye health wellness assessment: A comprehensive vision and eye health evaluation
- Prescription Eyewear: Upgrade your glasses or sunglasses to match your current needs and style preferences
- Specialized Lenses: Options such as blue-light filtering lenses or progressive lenses designed for specific tasks
