01 - Written estimates
No guessing. Different eyes, different plans.
We're neverthe cheapest LASIK in Dallas-Fort Worth. We're also never the most expensive. Here's what most patients actually plan for, and how we structure financing around it.
The exact number is confirmed after a thorough pre-op diagnostic evaluation, so the plan matches your eyes, never a default. Your written estimate explains the procedure, technology or lens choice, follow-up plan, insurance status, financing options, and any current promotion that may apply.
Individual results vary. All estimates are confirmed after a thorough pre-op diagnostic evaluation.
Procedure estimate guides

These are planning categories, not a substitute for measurements. Your written estimate shows the procedure, lens or laser plan, follow-up, financing path, and what insurance may or may not cover.

View cataract optionsLooking for a discount?
Looking for a LASIK discount? You're going to be disappointed.
Here's why: discount LASIK is almost always bait-and-switch. You see a low per-eye ad, walk in the door, and the fine print starts: astigmatism correction, topography-guided treatment, a premium laser platform, each one an add-on. The final plan is often very different from the headline.
See, all LASIK is not the same. We give you one clear plan up front, with the technology your eyes need included. No bait. No switch.

Standard cataract surgery is covered by most medical insurance plans, including Medicare, when it's deemed medically necessary. We verify benefits before you commit and walk you through your out-of-pocket estimate.

LASIK, SMILE, EVO ICL, ASA/PRK, custom lens replacement, and premium-lens upgrades for cataract surgery are considered elective. They aren't covered by insurance - but they are eligible for FSA, HSA, and financing.
Payment tracksMost popular
How most of our patients structure their plan.
Below are two of the most common payment structures we see. Each one assumes a complete care package - diagnostics, surgery, and the full follow-up cycle. The exact number depends on your eyes and the technology that fits.
Pay in full
The simplest path: one payment at the time of surgery, often using FSA/HSA funds.
- No financing fees when paying in full
- FSA / HSA fully eligible
- Includes all diagnostics + follow-ups
- Best when surgery is already in your budget

- 0% options up to 24 months for qualified applicants
- Cherry: pre-qualify with no hard pull
- Pay-as-you-go installments
- Extended low-interest plans
