Flexible spending accts and dry eye products

[ATHiker95]

Do you know if dry eye products (drops,etc) that are OTC are eligible to be included in a health FSA(flexible spending acct)? I'm signing up tonite for my wife's plan and I was trying to calculate how much I wanted to put in the plan. I read comments about eye washes being allowed, but haven't actually stumbled across all the various dry eye drops we all use.

Can someone help?

Thanks,
Mark

I believe so, but you can check with your employer's HR department. Lucy

They were covered on mine when I had an FSA but it may vary at your company. As Lucy said, check with your HR dept.

Thanks for the info! I'll check with HR. Would be nice if they included them.
