Frequently Asked questions

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

How Much Does LASIK Cost in Rochester?

The average price of LASIK Eye Surgery in Rochester 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?

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

Everything was super easy! I was able to do my consultation and my surgery on the same day! The only mistake I made was thinking that I took enough meds before the surgery. I should have taken that Tylenol PM like they said, right after the surgery. That parts on me. Everything has been great since and I see 20/20! Everyone is very nice and they will answer ALL of you questions! So grateful I…

This was my 2nd time having procedures done at lasik vision institute and both times the experience has been wonderful. The whole team was very helpful with any questions I had about the procedure and the recovery, they informed me of what to expect and did not lead me to any false expectations for recovery. I am extremely happy with my results and look forward to the final results. Thank you again to the whole…

The LASIK Institute was the second place I visited when considering correction. With my insurance discount, it came out under $4K for both eyes, which was cheaper than my first option and close to what I'd been paying every decade for contacts and solutions. I am nearly 50 and have developed presbyopia. Because I got tired of taking my glasses on and off to read, I opted for monovision (dominant eye for distance). One day…

Staff was incredibly friendly, helpful and supportive throughout the process. Doctors were both thorough, friendly and able to answer all of my questions. As someone who was incredibly nervous for this procedure, they answered all of my questions, put me at ease. Overall, they were a joy to deal with. Day after surgery and already have 20/20 vision and will continue to heal and improve for next 30 days! Procedure was quick, pain-free and far…

Last Saturday, I did something just for me — and I’m so glad I did. About 18 years ago, I was told I wasn’t a candidate for LASIK. A few weeks ago, while talking with my family, they encouraged me to try again since technology has come a long way. So I made an appointment at The LASIK Vision Institute, and to my surprise (and almost tears), I was a candidate — and had the…

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
