Here's the bad news: since lasik is considered a cosmetic procedure and therefore elective, it is not normally covered by health insurance plans. Exceptions might be coverage plans that offer a "conversion" that will allow you to use part of your benefits for such a procedure; if you work for a major corporation such as Microsoft, this may be an option for you.

The Cost of Lasik Eye Surgery is less than that of other procedures, but can still be costly. The bad news is that nationwide, the cost of lasik eye surgery can be as much as $4000 per eye when performed by a highly qualified surgeon in a state-of-the-art facility. The good news is that in Denver, Loveland, Aurora and other Front Range communities, the cost of lasik eye surgery ranges from $500 to $1500 per eye. That's not cheap, mind you - but it is far less than you would pay in other parts of the country.
