Lasik Surgery Cost

This is a great article (updated in June 2007) that discusses the costs for various popular eye surgeries: Cost of LASIK Eye Surgery.

Here’s a quote to give you an idea of how much you’ll probably pay for lasik corrective surgery PER EYE:

LASIK prices, after rising for several years, seemed to stabilize in 2006 and 2007. Industry sources report that the average LASIK price in late 2006 was about $1,950. In 2007, LASIK and laser-based procedures charged at a single price (no extra charges added on for new technologies) cost an average $2,099 (see charts below).

The article attributes the rising costs of lasik eye surgeries to newer, more expensive technologies like wavefront-guided lasik and intralase.

Since most insurance doesn’t cover lasik surgery it’s a good thing that affordable financing is available!

I’m doing extensive research on this topic because it’s definitely not an inexpensive procedure! I’m using this blog to capture my research–which will hopefully be of value to others.
