What is your Christmas wish this year?

Most of you have already made your Christmas wish for this year, or perhaps some of you are still giving it some thought.  Since the big day is just around the corner, I thought it would be appropriate to discuss what some of your Christmas wishes might be.  With the constant reminders of the holidays from Christmas music playing on just about every radio station and Christmas decorations in every store and shop window, one cannot help but think about that list that has been accumulating all year long.
For some it may be the latest electronic device and for others it may be simply to be home with their loved ones this year.  Regardless of what has landed upon your list, we all in some way wish and hope that it will somehow arrive on Christmas day.  This is the point of a wish list after all isn’t it?
How about this year we dare to be different, and instead of creating a wish list for ourselves let’s create a wish list for someone else.  Could you imagine if we put our energy into thinking of others how very merry our Christmas day could be?

FSA and HSA

2011 has flown by and December is finally upon us.  Many of you have flexible spending accouts (FSA) or health savings accounts (HSA) with money left on them and nowhere to spend it.  The optometrist's office is a great place to take that money.  Why you ask?  It is one of the few places that you can use those accounts to buy yourself something fun.  That is unless you consider having exams, shots, therapy or purchasing medication fun. 
These accounts can be used to purchase contact lenses, eyeglasses and sunglasses.  And unlike your vision insurance you do not have to have a prescription placed in those sunglasses.  They can be plano lenses (which is optical talk for not having a presciption in them). 
So rather then waste the opportunity visit our office and find a christmas gift for yourself or someone you love, using your FSA or HSA account.
