Don't Lose your Year-End Vision Benefits

Don't forget to use your FlexCare or Flexible Spending dollars before they expire. Many plans have a "use it or lose it" feature, and December 31 st is usually the deadline to use those tax-free dollars. Even vision insurance plans may have benefits that expire at the end of the year. This is a great time to make sure that all of your vision needs are covered from office to outdoors, sports and dress wear, clear and tinted contact lenses. Don't wait until the end of the year when you are busy with holiday celebrations and year-end "to do" lists. Come in or call us now.

Contact Lens News

SynergEyes contact lenses, available in our office, deliver the crisp vision of a rigid contact lens plus the all-day comfort of a soft lens by combining two types of materials. The rigid center provides high oxygen transmissibility for healthy eyes and clear, sharp vision. And the soft skirt surrounding the center gives you all-day comfort of a soft lens. This specialty lens delivers consistently clear vision for patients with astigmatism. It will soon be available in multifocal prescription. Feel free to ask our doctors if this contact lens is a good fit for you.

For those of you who love your contact lenses, but are just beginning to have trouble reading small print and seeing up close, the Biomedics EP contact lens is designed specifically for you. Biomedics EP's unique optical design allows you to see clearly at all distances-near, far, and in between-all with the comfort and convenience of soft contact lenses.

The new Biofinity contact lenses are also available in our office. These lenses are made from a new material that helps them stay moist and comfortable all day long, while letting plenty of oxygen flow freely through the lens.

Right now, there is a manufacturer's rebate available through our office, when you have an eye exam and purchase the Biomedics EP or Biofinity lenses. If you have never worn contact lenses or contact lenses by this manufacturer, you may qualify for an additional rebate. These rebates expire December 31, 2007. Call us now to schedule an eye exam and contact lens evaluation so you can learn whether either of these lenses is right for you.

Rebates are also available on several of the other lenses we prescribe.
