Can you believe we've reached September already? Now that we’re heading closer to the end of another busy year, we thought it important to remind you all that any unused health fund benefits are due to expire on December 31st.
For the majority of Health fund providers, your optical benefits reset each year in January, and any unused benefits from the previous year unfortunately do not rollover. So, this means that any benefits you haven't managed to claim yet (from January through December) will be ‘lost.’ You've already made the investment, so it makes sense to take advantage of any remaining benefits. And there's more than one way to claim your extras!
How to Maximise Optical Extras
Our team at Burleigh Waters and Tweed Heads can help you make the most of your optical extras before they expire on December 31st. Here are some ways you can maximise your optical benefits in 2025.
Contact Lenses
Our optometry team can prescribe contact lenses for almost any need. Or grab some more of your prescription.
Prescription Sunglasses
Prescription sunglasses allow patients to enjoy clear vision and UV protection simultaneously. Perfect for driving and heading outdoors for leisure.
New Fashion Look
Do you desire new, more fashionable frames, a classic look or maybe an updated in shape or colour. Our team loves helping patients choose a favourite frame for a fresh look.
Digital Eyewear
Do you spend hours in front of digital screens for work or school? Digital specific lenses can alleviate eye strain!
Spare Everyday Pair
A backup pair of glasses can be helpful, especially if you're travelling, or your primary glasses get lost or broken.
Reading Glasses
Reading glasses are ideal for many of you who require clear vision at a close range and extra comfort for your eyes. Just perfect for curling up with a great book!
Driving Glasses
About 90% of the information we use for driving derives from our vision. We can assess your vision to ensure road safety with the appropriate eyewear for driving both day and night.
Sports Eyewear
Sport-specific eyewear can enhance a patient’s comfort and performance on the field or court.
Special Offers and Savings
Why not ask us about our no gap eyewear options, or any special offers on eyewear that may be valid until 31/12/2025. You can take advantage of these offers in conjunction with your health fund optical extras.
