Invest in Your VisionLASIK Cost Smithtown

One of the most common concerns among patients who are considering LASIK surgery is how much the procedure will cost. Because laser vision correction is usually classified as an elective procedure, it is not covered by most insurance plans. At North Shore Eye Care, we believe that everyone deserves to experience clear vision, free from the constraints of corrective eyewear. Guided by this philosophy, we work with patients to help them understand the cost of surgery, as well as their payment options. Contact us today to learn more about LASIK cost and the financing options available at our Riverhead and Smithtown, Long Island locations.

Understanding LASIK Cost

When considering LASIK surgery, patients should strive to understand all of the factors that determine the full cost of the procedure. While many patients may be tempted to choose the practice that offers the least expensive treatment options, it is important to remember just how delicate vision is, and to place its care in good hands. The cost of surgery should be a secondary concern compared to the surgeon’s skill, safety record, and history of success, as well as the technology and cleanliness of the facility. Serving the Long Island-area for more than 50 years, North Shore Eye Care has earned a reputation as a leading laser vision correction center thanks to their expertly trained physicians, sophisticated technology, and commitment to personalized, professional patient care. In addition, three of our physicians, Dr. Jeffrey Martin, Dr. Sidney Martin, and Dr. Lawrence Zweibel have consistently been identified by Castle Connolly, Inc. as “Top Doctors” in the New York Metro area.

When you undergo LASIK surgery at North Shore Eye Care, you can feel confident that you are receiving the highest-quality care available. Because no two sets of eyes are exactly alike, the cost of LASIK surgery varies from patient to patient. Some factors that contribute to the LASIK surgery cost include:

  • The condition of the patient’s vision
  • The type of LASIK being performed (traditional LASIK or iLASIK)
  • Medications that need to be prescribed before and after surgery
  • Post-operative care including follow-up appointments

At North Shore Eye Care, it is our goal to help our patients achieve the clear, precise vision they deserve. We understand that LASIK cost can be perceived as burdensome by some of our Smithtown and Riverhead patients, so we offer payment plans and financing options to suit all budgets.
