⏳ Don’t Let Your Vision Benefits Expire! ⏳

As we approach the end of 2025, this is a friendly reminder that many insurance plans expire on December 31st. If you still have unused benefits for eye exams, glasses, or contact lenses, now is the perfect time to use them!

At Lakeside Family Optometry, we still have some December appointments available, but they’re filling up quickly.

Call us to book your eye exam today to secure your spot and avoid losing your benefits that you’ve already paid for!

We look forward to seeing you before the year wraps up! 💙👓
