Do you know how much you have left of your optical extras?

If you’re like most of us, your answer is probably “not sure”.

Health fund extras is money you have already paid for and forgotten to use – so far.

Every year a lot of extras funds are unused and then disappear when the calendar flips to January 1. Wouldn’t it be better to use your extras than lose them?

Many health funds reset extras on 1 January.

Gulf and Ranges has an offer for you that gives you the opportunity to get the advantage and use two years’ of extras.

Step one, before Christmas.
Between 1 October and 23 December 2026, purchase any prescription eyewear (glasses, sunglasses or contact lenses) valued at over $450.

This will help to use up your 2026 optical extras, plus you’ll enjoy a discount on the world’s best lenses.

Step two, early in the new year.
Between 1 January and 1 March 2027 we’ll send you a reminder to purchase a second pair of prescription eyewear valued over $450. And we’ll take $100 off.

Your extras will have refreshed at this stage for 2027, so you can use them and not lose them in 2027.
That’s two pairs of glasses, two rounds of extras and an extra $100 in your pocket.
