What LASIK Prices to Expect

LASIK clinics are seeing a level pricing range for LASIK eye surgery. Many people diagnosed with astigmatism, myopia, and hyperopia are deciding to have LASIK eye surgery. The primary concern for individuals looking to correct their vision is that the price of LASIK is out of reach and too expensive. However, with the price fluctuations leveling off and stabilizing within the recent years, LASIK eye surgery costs have been much more affordable and within reach of anyone looking to correct their eyesight through the process of LASIK.

According to a survery done in 2009, the average cost for LASIK surgery is:

$2,100 for a single eye LASIK price costs.
$1,600 for non-customized LASIK w/out Wavefront Analysis.
$2,400 for LASIK w/Wavefront Analysis.
These general pricing considerations are an average and may vary depending on the area of the country you live in. Also these prices are also expected to decrease within the next year or 2 when the economy starts to recover. With these price ranges, LASIK clinics know that the price range might still be out of reach to the general consumer, and have added multiple payment plan options, so be sure to ask your surgeon during your consultation if these prices are within your price range. At your scheduled LASIK consultation, the LASIK surgeon will discuss and decide the best procedure for you. In detail, they will talk about what is involved step by step, they will also be there to answer any questions you may have regarding the LASIK procedure. Other final steps would be to sign a consent form and payments on the agreed upon LASIK price. Again, the costs may vary, but be prepared for the amount to be around $1,500 to $3,000.
