Wow, I don’t know where you guys are getting your quotes at or where you live, but…

I just had mine done January 2, 2007, in Omaha, Nebraska. The cost was $4200 for Custom LASIK, no blades. Standard no blade LASIK was $3600. I received a 10% discount on the Custom, so my net cost was about $3800.

I’d priced out 3 other places in Omaha prior to booking where I went. Those prices were $4000 (Custom, no blade), $3200 (no Custom blade for flap removal), and $3000 (no Custom, blade for flap removal).

If you are planning on doing it, I would definitely check to see if any health plans at your employer offer discounts or anything. Also, if you have a flex benefits program, set that money aside in that account so you can pay with tax-free dollars.

Hope that helps. It ain’t cheap, but it’s worth it. And I would stay away from anyone that says $250 per eye. You don’t want to end up looking like a pirate.

I know of an individual that had Lasik in the early 1990s, and as far as I know, the aftereffects have been nil. I didn’t have mine that long ago, but I can tell you my near vision is worse, but only with very small text. Unfortunately, even with Lasik, age is going to work on our eyes. As for finding a doctor – I asked friends. The doctor I went to was one of the first in the area to do the procedure. Doing the most doesn’t make a doctor the best, but I would think they have most of the kinks worked out. Yow! BTW: The one thing I missed in all my discussions was the fact that the flap that was sliced on my eye would never heal. That sounds pretty sick, but when I asked for more info, I was told it took a lot, a WHOLE lot, to rip the flap.
