Lasik surgery

HSA Card

It’s about that time of year again, when patients start using their Health Savings Accounts and Flexible Savings Accounts to pay for their laser vision correction procedures (i.e. LASIK).

This year has changed a lot of things, but one thing that has not changed is how using your HSA funds towards LASIK is a smart money move.

Sources have shown that “LASIK eligible FSA” has become a really popular search on Google and different search engines, which makes sense seasonally.  As we near the end of the year, NOW is the time that everyone starts to think about using their accounts. We have even noticed quite a few social media posts about how people are trying to avoid taxes on the cost of LASIK!

As we do every year, we wanted to share two really credible articles on HSA’s in general:

As well as an article specifically about how to use your HSA or FSA accounts for LASIK: https://americanrefractivesurgerycouncil.org/a-popular-financing-option-for-lasik-flexible-spending-accounts/

As always, our team is here to answer any questions you may have on this process and how we could possibly help.
