Quick Reference

Generally, vitamins and supplements taken for general health or preventative purposes are not considered qualified medical expenses by the IRS. However, if eye vitamins are prescribed by a doctor to treat a specific medical condition, such as a diagnosed eye disease, they may be eligible.

When It Qualifies

  • Must be prescribed by a licensed medical professional.
  • Must be used to treat a specific diagnosed medical condition, not for general health or prevention.

When It Doesn't

  • Vitamins or supplements taken for general health improvement.
  • Vitamins or supplements taken for preventative purposes without a specific diagnosis.
