Frequently Asked questions

New York City LASIK Eye Surgery FAQ

LASIK can make patients a little nervous and confused so we took some of the most common questions our LASIK Surgeons in New York City most commonly get asked every day to help you make an informed decision about this life-changing procedure.

How Much Does LASIK Cost in New York City?

The  average price of LASIK Eye Surgery is $2,588* per eye (according to the most recent US analysis reported Market Scope in 2022). However, it’s important to note that this is just an estimate, and the actual cost can differ based on individual circumstances.

Does Insurance Cover LASIK Eye Surgery in New York City?

Insurance providers typically consider LASIK to be an elective surgery therefore it is typically not covered. However, most providers offer some kind of promotion or discount.

How Long is the Recovery for LASIK?

The recovery period for LASIK eye surgery is relatively short, with most patients experiencing improved vision within the first 24 to 48 hours after the procedure, though individual results may vary. While you may resume most normal activities within a few days, it’s essential to follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions for the best and safest recovery outcome.

Is LASIK Eye Surgery Safe?

LASIK eye surgery is considered safe and has a high success rate for most patients, but like any surgical procedure, it carries potential risks and complications and the possibility of needing additional enhancements. It is crucial to consult with one of our qualified eye surgeon in our network to assess your individual suitability for LASIK and discuss any concerns you may have.

Who is a Candidate for LASIK in New York City?

LASIK candidates should have a stable prescription for at least one to two years and be in good overall health with healthy eyes. Additionally, corneal thickness, pupil size, and age are factors considered by eye care professionals. It’s essential to consult with an experienced LASIK.com, ophthalmologist or optometrist for a comprehensive examination to determine individual eligibility for LASIK.

What Vision Errors Does LASIK Correct?

LASIK is primarily used to correct common refractive errors, including nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism. The procedure reshapes the cornea to improve the way light is focused onto the retina, thereby reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses.

What people are saying in New York City

Getting my LASIK eye surgery done at the LASIK Vision Institute was the best thing I have ever done. Dr. Patel and staff members were very helpful in answering all my questions both in person and over the phone. Going into the procedure the claps around the eyelid is probably the toughest part, but after a few seconds it was all over and done. The healing process was smooth after day 1. The follow up…

Great experience. The consultation was very thorough and lasted 1.5 hours. The staff very much made me feel at ease. Right after my consultation, Dr Speaker did my surgery same day! The surgery itself was about 10 minutes and he did a great job. I experienced no pain at all. I had full vision the very next morning. Highly recommend!

TCL Laser Eye Center at 437 Fifth Avenue was an amazing experience. They have the up most dated technology. Great office staff. Very nice , organized and welcoming. I had my lasik done November 22, 2024 on both eyes and one day later I’m able to see pretty good. It does take a little more time for my vision to be perfect, but so far I’m happy to have done this procedure. Doctor Speaker was…

I recently got my LASIK surgery done and it’s been life changing. My vision used to be extremely bad to the point where I got denied from a job I applied for due to my vision. This definitely sent me down a spiral of emotions and I figured it was time to do something. I was recommended to this place by a friend from work and it was definitely nerve wracking. However, all of the…

From start to finish, the team was extremely welcoming and supportive. The initial exam was fast and informative. The team was also able to move my surgery forward to accommodate my weekend with the family. The multiple doctors answered all my questions and reassured me of a quick recovery. I highly suggest this LASIK Vision Institute (16 Court St., Brooklyn) for any optical surgery you need. Thank you so much for helping me see clearer.

Excellent life changing experience for me. I never realized this LASIK procedure could be done so quickly and smoothly and the impact will be immediate. Entire team was very professional and caring. They guided me step by step from the beginning and even during the procedure minute by minute. Within a couple of minutes the entire thing was over. Strong recommend this procedure to anyone in need and strong complement this team and recommend it.

Extremely easy process and everyone was great to work with. Also costs much less then first expected. The doctor even gave me a call later at night after my lasik surgery to check in on me. I would fully trust and recommend this place to anyone. From Kaylee starting the initial consultation process to going on the bed under the laser it was all seamless and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. 20/15 vision…

It has been almost 8 months since I had my lasik procedure done at TLC and I am still in awe of waking up everyday not having to grab my glasses to see. I chose to wait this long to write a review so I was able to share my honest feedback for anyone thinking about getting lasik. I was hesitant initially, but the staff at TLC are very welcoming and put me at ease…

I wore glasses for 32 years. Saw the procedure all over social media. I went in for a free consultation. The staff was awesome. Gave all the info I needed. Answered all my questions. The doctor explained every step of the procedure. I was nervous but it was easy easy. They numb your eyes. The laser machine sizes your eye and makes it's mark. Then the laser does its work. 7 seconds left eye was…

I have to say, I was nervous going into the procedure. My prescription for glasses and contacts was extremely high (-7.5 for my contacts). I asked friends who have had the procedure and they all said don’t worry if you can’t get any better than 20/30 afterwards, especially with the high prescription. I arrived at the facility the morning of, and everyone was so friendly and helpful. After waiting for about 30 mins, it was…

The staff members were very professional and knowledgeable. After the initial consultation, I was able to schedule the procedure much sooner than I thought. The surgery itself was very quick, and they let you know in advance what to expect and what to do for aftercare. I’ve worn glasses since I was nine years old, and it’s honestly amazing to finally be rid of them. Highly recommend this place!
