Does Insurance Cover LASIK Eye Surgery in North Carolina?

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 North Carolina?

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.

My experience at The LASIK Vision Institute was amazing from start to finish. The front staff were so welcoming and friendly. The doctors were also knowledgeable and explained everything from the positives to the negatives. Dr. Machat made me feel so comfortable during the procedure. We were done in less than 10 mins. I couldn’t believe when i opened my eyes and saw the clock! Tears of joy! Truly a life changing experience.

I had LASIK done recently and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From the first consultation to the follow-up appointments, the entire team made me feel comfortable and informed. The procedure itself was incredibly quick and completely painless—honestly easier than I expected. The staff explained everything step by step and answered every question I had, which really helped calm my nerves. My vision improvement was almost immediate, and waking up the…

Came for a consult 2 weeks, got the all clear, had LASIK last Friday (2/6/26) and it was amazing. Staff is great. Procedure took 10 mins for both eyes. Financial commitment was clear, transparent and easy. Gave a discount with my vision insurance as well. The doctor talked thru every step of the procedure and eased my nerves. I woke up the next morning with near perfect vision. I'm still stunned! I've had glasses since…

I had an amazing experience with Dr. Machhat and the entire LASIK team. From start to finish, I felt informed and prepared. Before my procedure, they conducted several thorough tests to make sure I was a good candidate, which made me feel very confident in their process. I had already done my own research, but after my consultation, I felt completely reassured and excited to move forward. I scheduled my surgery just two weeks later.…

The LASIK Vision Institute was phenomenal! I did the same day appointment and procedure. The entire staff was friendly and very reassuring. Any and all questions were answered. The process was very thorough. The procedure was quick and painless. The doctor explained everything before each step as well as during each step. My post procedure instructions were also very thorough. My vision improved tremendously before I ever left the office, but it was near perfect…

For as long as I can remember, my world depended on glasses and contacts. I started wearing glasses at 12, and my vision only continued to get worse. By the time I reached a -6 prescription, being nearsighted felt less like an inconvenience and more like a vulnerability. Without my glasses or contacts, I was essentially blind—and that fear stayed with me. I hated how dependent I felt, especially knowing that if something unexpected happened…

LASIK was easy to get through, and the entire staff was knowledgeable and friendly. I felt extremely comfortable in my doctor’s hands, and everyone was very supportive throughout the entire process. I had the procedure yesterday and am already able to walk around seeing without glasses or contacts. After wearing contacts for 25+ years, I needed freedom from the strain they caused. I’m very thankful for this place and would highly recommend them.

I came in from the Caribbean expecting a wait. I was asked able to have my diagnosis and surgery the same day with a follow-up a few days after. From the beginning everyone in the office was pleasant and knowledgeable. The surgeon was great and explained everything through the process. Definitely recommend. No long waiting. It was like in a blink of an eye and there, no more glasses or contacts. Thank you

🌟 **Life-Changing Experience with LASIK!** 🌟 Yesterday I had LASIK eye surgery at the LASIK Vision Institute, and I can't express how thrilled I am with the results! From the moment I walked into the clinic, the staff was welcoming and professional, making me feel comfortable and informed about the entire process. They took extra time with me to work through my anxiety and fear about the process. The procedure itself was quick and surprisingly…

I can SEE!!! 😆. After years of wearing glasses and prescription sunglasses I can finally wake up and see. No more squinting or cleaning off my glasses. I’m amazed!!! The whole team is amazing and so sweet! Dr. Strange is the BEST of the Best. He talked me through the whole procedure and let me know what to expect. Dr. Machat was so precise and calmed my anxiety during the procedure. 10/10 recommend. I will…

I had my LASIK operation back in March of 2020 just prior to COVID and, even going on 5 years later, it was one of the best decisions I've made. I paid $4k at the time for both eyes and looking back now it's amazing how such a massive increase in quality of life can be so relatively cheap. From a prescription of -6 bilaterally to now being 20/10 in my left eye and 20/15…

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
