As the year winds down, it’s time to focus on using every dollar wisely—and that includes your Flexible Spending Account (FSA). Many FSAs operate on a “use it or lose it” rule, meaning if you don’t spend the funds by December 31st, the remaining balance may be forfeited. Don’t let those pre-tax savings go to waste! Now is the perfect time to use your FSA for essential eye care and more.
