Get Prescription Sunglasses, Eyeglasses and Contact Lenses with Flex Spending Account Before 1/1/13

Dec. 3, 2012 - PRLog -- Austin, TX – December 3, 2012 – The eyewear specialists at FramesDirect.com announced that they are helping patients purchase prescription sunglasses, eyeglasses, and contact lenses through their Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) in order to beat the 12/31/12 deadline. FSA participants who do not use the money in their accounts before the deadline are at risk of losing it all.

“Many people do not know that prescription sunglasses, eyeglasses with or without lenses, contact lenses, and some sunglasses are eligible expenses in a Flex Spending Account,” states FramesDirect.com Co-founder, Dr. Dhavid Cooper. “We make it easy for people to use their FSA funds to purchase prescription eyewear anytime, anywhere simply by using their FSA debit card, or Flex Card, at www.framesdirect.com.”

Those with FSAs typically place a certain amount of money aside each year to cover healthcare expenses. Unlike Health Savings Accounts, the coverage period for an FSA is usually the calendar year ending December 31st, with some employers offering a grace period from January through March 15th.
