Can you get lasik without healthvision insurance?Phillip
I don't have health or vision insurance, but would like to get Lasik, and would be willing to pay the full amount.Do these places offer some form of insurance to cover potential problems with the operation, since I'm uninsured?

Many Lasik providers will allow you to make payments should you choose to use their services. You will need to discuss any follow up care with them before you decide to use them.Follow up care should be included in the initial cost of the procedure. At times you may need a minor adjustment to obtain the best results. When shopping around, make a list of questions, read on line about the procedure both benefits and problems with lasik. This way you make an informed decision. Use your judgment and their responses to gage if you want to use them or not. Do not go with the first one, shop around ask people who have used their services. Your vision is way too important to take chances with. There are people who have had it done and it has changed their lives. Some have had many problems.Should you have it done, DO WHAT YOU ARE TOLD TO DO ON YOUR PART! It can make the difference between success and a huge mistake.Good luck!

Most health insurances including Vision - does't pay for it. It's elective surgery.If you're a candidate for it - go for it. It's been very successful. Talk to people about it first. Good luck. You'll see clear as a bell!

LASIK is an elective procedure and most insurances won't cover it anyway. Some insurance companies have negotiated discounts with surgeons though. In any case, most reputable surgeons offer a package that includes post operative care for 1 or 2 years after the surgery. I co-manage LASIK and would suggest you get only the latest technology, which is custom wave front with the all laser procedure (Intra-LASIK). It runs about $2000 per eye in the Midwest.
