What is the average cost of an eye surgery?

The cost of laser eye surgery per eye ranges from $1,000 to $4,000. The cost usually includes all expenses from consultations to follow-up care. Most health policies do not cover the expenses of LASIK eye surgery but some offer discounts.

The cost varies depending on the type of technology used, such as LASIK with a bladed microkeratome and wavefront-guided LASIK with femtosecond laser flap, and the amount of correction required. Other surgeons give a single quote for all laser-based eye surgeries. People can use flexible spending accounts to meet the cost of their laser eye surgery. Some officers in military services usually have free vision surgery options.
