Frequently Asked questions

Rochester LASIK Eye Surgery FAQ

How Much Does LASIK Cost in Rochester?

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 Rochester?

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 Rochester?

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 Rochester

The staff at The LASIK Vision Institute are amazing and so helpful in the process. Surgery is quick, painless, and easy. For the first time since kindergarten I can finally see!! My eye doctor has recommended it for years and my old regret is that I should have done it sooner.

So far so good, I'm on day 1, my procedure yesterday went well, the isn't any reason to be nervous! At all, it's such an easy thing to go through, I got mono vision, it is a bit strange but I absolutely love being able to read again and see small things without glasses on.

I’ve been wearing glasses since I was 7 years old and been talking about lasik since my mom told me about her experience. I’ve been dreaming of being able to see clearly without glasses or contacts since I was about 16 years old. It has only been a day since my surgery, but waking up this morning without searching for my glasses or putting contacts in, seems so surreal. Thankful I was able to do…

They are amazing and I’m happy I went with them for my procedure! They were very informative, very kind, and very comforting throughout the entire process. With a referral, they were able to knock down the price a little bit. The follow up process was nice as well. If I had questions before the procedure, I was able to text the number that I got reminders on and they were very quick with responding and…

I cannot say enough good things about this LASIK surgery center! From start to finish, the experience was amazing. The staff was incredibly kind, professional, and made me feel completely at ease every step of the way. The surgery itself was quick and painless, and the results? Life-changing. I woke up the next day seeing 20/20 after being basically blind without glasses or contacts for most of my life. It feels like a miracle! If…

It has been 7 months since my procedure, and everything is going extremely well. The procedure itself, although nerve-wracking because I'm a nervous Nelly, was quick, easy, and painless. Within minutes, I could read signs posted around the waiting room--something I had not been able to do without glasses or contacts for 30+ years. The initial recovery was uncomfortable, but sleeping helped it pass by very quickly. Now, 7 months later, my eyes are great.…

My Excellent Experience with LASIK Surgery Three days ago, I underwent LASIK surgery, and my experience was outstanding in every way. From the beginning, the medical staff was very professional, explaining every detail about the procedure, which gave me a sense of comfort and reassurance. The initial examinations were thorough, and the doctor clearly outlined what to expect during and after the surgery. During the procedure, everything was quick and painless—just slight pressure for a…

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
