Frequently Asked questions

Pittsburgh 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 Pittsburgh most commonly get asked every day to help you make an informed decision about this life-changing procedure.

How Much Does LASIK Cost in Pittsburgh?

The average price of LASIK Eye Surgery in Pittsburgh 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 Pittsburgh?

Insurance providers typically consider LASIK to be an elective surgery therefore it is typically not covered. However, our network LASIK providers have partnerships with Insurance providers which often offer exclusive discounts to anyone looking to get LASIK. Check Your Insurance Coverage

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 Pittsburgh?

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.

I was extremely nervous to get this procedure, but everyone in the office took their time to explain everything in great detail! All the staff are amazing, friendly, and exactly the kind of people you want to be around to get this procedure done. I walked out of the operating room smiling and woke up with 20/20 vision the next morning, it is amazing! If you get the chance to get lasik, run, do not…

I was so excited for lasik & then was given the option for monovision. I went back and forth for a few hours while waiting for my appointment and I am so glad I chose the monovision. I had progressive lenses in glasses and I am beyond happy! I had little to no adjustment period. I wish I would've done this sooner. Everyone in the office was fantastic & explained everything thoroughly. The eased my…

The consultations were very thorough, they made sure I understand the differences between lasik and PRK and that I was a good candidate for the procedures. I went with PRK and come surgery day I was nervous but things went very well and the temporary discomfort was well worth the payoff. I'm just under one month post surgery and I can see so much better. I notice my vision sharpening every couple days and the…

I have no words to describe how happy and satisfied I am with TLC. I was very scared in the beginning, but everyone was comforting me. The process was pain-free, just a little pressure near my eyebrow area. During surgery, my doctor was explaining everything to me, detailing the next steps. I highly recommend them. Thank you for giving me a chance to get my 20/20 vision back. Thank you, Dr. Zambelli and TLC.team.

Clinic worked with me throughout the process. I did their virtual consult in November and was supposed to go for an in person consult in December and January (both on their Saturday appt days!) but had to cancel on my end because of big snow storms. After the second cancellation I asked if I could just come in for a same day consult and treatment if I qualified and they said yes :) A week…

This was the greatest gift I ever bought for myself. You are laying in the exam table for 5 minutes, that is what it really all comes down to, 5 minutes and you’re done. You life will literally change in 5 quick minutes. zero pain. Heck, the dilation drops were worse than the actual procedure. Every single person is so very nice and encouraging = 10 stars on professionalism. Watch a Youtube video of a…

100% satisfied! My only regret is not getting lasik done years ago! It was so much easier and wayyyy faster than I expected. Monday I had a consultation and the following Thursday I was in for my procedure. My vision is perfect the very next day after the procedure and it doesn't even feel like I've had anything done. If youre on the fence about doing it I would recommend you bite the bullet and…

If you're unsure about getting Lasik, I say go for it! As soon as I walked in the door I was met with kindness. The staff is wonderful and were so patient with me and all my nerves. The procedure itself was so fast, and no pain. You do feel pressure at one point but it's literally seconds. For me the "worst " part was after. Once I got home I couldn't fall asleep so…

Very kind, caring, and professional from my first appointment to my last. I had the LASIK in my one eye and PRK in the other eye. I was nervous about the PRK, but the recovery was not that bad in my opinion. The LASIK recovery was a breeze. I would do it again.Thank you for such a wonderful experience and for my amazing vision! You all are wonderful!

To see all of our reviews, please look at our Google My Business or Yelp reviews. Reviews reflect individual experiences. As with all medical procedures, individual results will vary, and anyone considering LASIK should speak with a doctor. A review of scientific articles published between 2008 and 2015 published in the Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery found that 99.5% (59,503/59,833) of LASIK treated eyes addressed in the literature achieved post-operative acuity better than 20/40
