As the year draws to a close, it’s the perfect time to focus on how you can maximize your insurance benefits before they reset. If you’ve been considering specialized eye care services, now is the time to act and use your “use it or lose it” insurance benefits.
The Benefits of Vision Therapy
Vision therapy is a personalized program that uses exercises and specialized techniques to improve visual skills and resolve issues such as lazy eye, double vision, and visual processing difficulties. This therapy goes beyond basic eyeglasses or contacts, offering tailored exercises to help patients improve eye coordination, focusing abilities, and more.
For many, vision therapy can have life-changing effects. Children struggling in school due to visual issues, adults dealing with visual discomfort from prolonged screen time, and patients with post-concussion vision issues can all benefit from this specialized service.
Sports Vision Training for Athletes
Athletes know that strong vision can be the difference between average and exceptional performance. Sports vision training focuses on enhancing visual skills that are crucial to athletic success, such as depth perception, peripheral awareness, eye-hand coordination, and reaction time.
Using your insurance benefits for sports vision training can be a great investment in athletic development and long-term visual health. Many insurance plans cover this type of specialty eye care, so take advantage of your benefits before they expire to improve your athletic performance and gain a competitive edge.
Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation for Neurological Recovery
Neuro-optometric rehabilitation is a specialized form of therapy designed to help patients who have suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, or other neurological events that impact vision. Patients with these conditions often experience visual disturbances like double vision, difficulty focusing, or dizziness.
Neuro-optometric rehabilitation aims to retrain the brain and eyes to work together more effectively, improving functional vision and quality of life.
If you or a loved one could benefit from neuro-optometric rehabilitation, now is a great time to schedule an assessment and use any remaining insurance benefits to cover part of the cost.
Don’t Miss Out on Your “Use It or Lose It” Insurance Benefits
Many insurance plans, along with Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) and Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), operate on a “use it or lose it” basis, meaning unused benefits don’t carry over into the next year.
This year-end deadline is a valuable reminder to make the most of your eye care benefits and explore the life-changing potential of specialty eye care services.
