Did you know not all credit cards are the same? If you’ve ever reached for your everyday credit card to pay for eyewear or vision care, check this out.

CareCredit is a health and wellness credit card that offers deferred interest to help you pay for purchases of $200 or more at locations in the CareCredit network.* Here’s how it works: with CareCredit, you can pay over time for vision expenses like contact lenses, designer frames and elective treatments.

Make sure you pay off your promo balance before the end of the promo period — if not, you’ll pay interest going back to the date of your purchase.

How does this compare to other credit cards? With general purpose credit cards, if you don’t pay off the balance each month, you may be charged interest and you may pay more out of pocket.

That’s why CareCredit is a clear choice. If you’re approved, you can get special financing with your CareCredit credit card and pay over time for the vision care you want or need.
