Will My Insurance Cover LASIK?

Most medical and vision insurance plans consider LASIK to be elective and therefore do not cover it. However, you can use a flexible spending account (FSA) or a health savings account (HSA) to pay for LASIK, or you can take advantage of our financing options.

General Information

It is our policy to collect any payments at the time of your appointment. We accept payment via cash, check, credit card, and money order.

Paying for Care with FSA, HSA, and HRA Accounts

Patients can use funds from medical spending accounts like FSA (Flexible Spending Account), HSA (Health Savings Account, and HRA (Health Reimbursement Account) to cover the cost of care. These funds are specifically designated for healthcare expenses, and are employer-sponsored and tax-deferred. Funds from medical spending accounts may not carry over to the next calendar year, so it’s wise to use them before you lose them.

Financing Options

We accept the CareCredit credit card for out-of-pocket expenses. If approved, patients can take advantage of promotional financing options with convenient monthly payments. Explore promotional financing options using the Payment Calculator below.
