I have seen a lot of advertisement for lasik quoting it at 299 per eye. Granted its based on your perscription but my eyes are equal in perscription and in good shape so it cant be more than 400 per eye. The thing is I cant see how Lasik eye surgery can be only eight hundred. It promises no hidden fees but how exactly can that be? I just would like to hear from somebody who has gone through the process and knows the answer.
Answer
If it is too good to be true, it is probably not true.
The problem with the $299 Lasik places is that there are so many restrictions on what is provided and who is eligible that the number almost never applies. Also, the only way any surgeon could provide Lasik at that price is to use equipment that is obsolete. It may still be FDA approved, but the technology is obsolete.
Without insurance Lasik costs about $1,950 per eye. The price of Lasik varies from about $1,600 to $3,200 per eye, depending on the surgeon and technology, according to David Harmon, president of the St. Louis research firm Market Scope.

Although these are the true costs for Lasik, discounts are common. Lasik doctors run specials on Lasik quite often, you can ocassionally purchase a Lasik Groupon, and our nonprofit organization provides a $1,500 grant to be used toward Lasik.

Why did LeBron James go all the way to California to have eye surgery ?
Shortstuff
I read in the the Cleveland Plain Dealer online recently, that Le Bron had Lasik eye surgery in California. Does anyone know why he didn't go to the Cleveland Clinic to have it done? I have been to the CC many times for a foot problem, & they have the greatest doctors there in all fields of medicine, in my opinion.
Answer
You are right. Being from Cleveland I can agree that some of the best doctors in the world are a the Cleveland Clinic. But this is mostly a cosmetic surgery. That being said, most of those doctors are out in CA. And like one person stated, he may have a friend who knew a good doctor for that out there. I'm sure it was done by an optomologist but some of them are specailizing in only cosmetic surgeries like this.
