Can i pay for lasik surgery through a health savings account hsa?Vern
I've got a health savings account where I can contribute up to $5, 000 tax free. Can I use this money for Lasik surgery even though this is considered "cosmetic" surgery?

You should be able to but check with your human resources person to be sure

I don't see why not but I am sure plans vary. Check with the provider.

Yes, You usually can. But Make sure you time it correctly. Most companies make you use those fund within a year and after that you lose it if you did not use it. So find a doctor and plan it with them.

Some things different between employers HSA (I have done HSA's at different employers, second one covered more than the first), so the only way to know 100% is to ask your HR people.My current plan says - Cosmetic surgery Some Surgery for medical reasons only, including correcting a birth defect or repairing damage caused by an accident. If you can get a doc to say it is medical required you have a better chance of getting it covered.
