Flexible Spending? No problem! we accept FSA Flexible Spending Account credit cards. For your convenience we can also "park"  or roll over your flex spending dollars so you don't lose them. If you don't have a FSA credit card we will provide you with a coded, itemized receipt for your entire purchase - for you and your family members!

Even if you don't have insurance we can still help you. We offer a large select of stylish frames at very reasonable prices. 

If your vision coverage allows, we can direct your allowance towards the best contact lenses for you.

Flexible Spending Accounts

Many employers are offering Flexible Spending Account (FSA) options to employees. Sometimes these are referred to as cafeteria plans and are elective, supplemental insurance savings plans. These plans are designed to let you save money in an account, pre-tax, to pay for additional medical expenses such as eye exams, glasses, contacts, and often laser vision surgery. Check with the benefits administrator at your work to see if you are eligible for this program. FSAs can typically be used in conjunction with any vision insurance plan to offset any out-of-pocket costs on your behalf.

Other Payment Options

Our Astoria optometry staff understands that cost is a concern when evaluating vision care providers. We do not want cost to be an obstacle to maintaining proper eye health and good vision. We accept various forms of payment and are able to discuss financing options with you prior to any examination. At Steinway Eye Care, we also accept cash, check, and major credit cards. Call (718) 626-2020 today to schedule your eye exam today.
