How much does LASIK cost?
Why does LASIK cost so much?
The truth is, it doesn’t. When compared to the alternative of glasses and contact lenses, the cost for LASIK is very reasonable. Think of it this way — you get to own your vision as opposed to renting it from the glasses and contacts industry. Not only that, LASIK is safer than wearing contact lenses. LASIK is more affordable, safer in the long run, and also gives you better vision than contact lenses. Use our affordability calculator to see how much you can save by getting LASIK.
In the United States, the average cost of LASIK is $5000.
Owning vs. renting your vision:
The average person spends $25,000+ on glasses, contact lenses, solution, eye exams, etc. It’s like renting your vision from the glasses and contacts lens industry. Worst of all, these will NEVER correct your vision.

What about LASIK discounts?
If you think you can get LASIK for $250 or $220 an eye, you’ll be disappointed. This bait-and-switch technique is used to get you in the door. This is how it works. You first come in for a free consultation at a discount LASIK center. The “bait” part consists of luring you in with an extremely discounted LASIK price. The “switch” happens when a salesperson informs you that based on testing, you do not qualify for the discounted price. The free consultation is also riddled with upsells, such as upgraded laser technology, post-operative aftercare program, and ensuring enhancements. With “discount LASIK,” the actual price of the surgery after all the upcharges and add-ons, ends up being far more than the advertised discount price.
We respect you, your time, and your intelligence. We have no desire to lure you in with a low price only to increase it when you get here. Your well-being means everything to us. We view refractive surgery as a life-changing decision, during which you put trust in us to do what is best for you. This is not an assembly line procedure. Because of this personalized care along with the expertise and experience of Dr. Waite, we do not discount LASIK or any of our other vision correction procedures. For accessibility, we offer several zero percent interest financing options.
Discounts are used to sell commodities. Your vision is a priceless asset, don’t discount it.
All LASIK is not the same.
