I had PRK a little over a month ago. I researched my surgeon thoroughly...started with three in my area where I had recommendations from my optometrist and a corneal specialist I work for. I mean, I looked up EVERYTHING I could about them...price for me was not as important as education, experience, their failure/ complication rates. The national average is about $1300 to $2100 per eye, depending on the technology. My hubby had LASIK a couple of weeks before I did and he did finance his. I used my credit card. Funny part...they would not accept CASH! My husband and I attribute our success to the education and experience of our surgeon...and he wasn't the cheapest, but not the most expensive either. $3400 for him and $4000 for me before our vision insurance discount. The link below has a lot of information about vision correction procedures...and I put the link from their site to surgeons in Boston. That is most likely NOT the only ones there, but it's a place to start. For my hubby and I, having our surgeries was a great experience with wonderful results....all due to our surgeon and following our postop instructions very carefully. |
