01 - Clear pricing
Less than your car payment. 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.
LASIK financing starts as low as $165 / month. Custom lens replacement ranges from $15,000-$30,000 total, also financeable. The exact number is confirmed after a thorough pre-op diagnostic evaluation, so the plan matches your eyes, never a default.
Individual results vary. All pricing is confirmed after a thorough pre-op diagnostic evaluation.
Looking 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. See an ad for $500 / eye, walk in the door, and the fine print starts.
The math you don't see in the ad
- Advertised LASIK starting price$500 / eye
- + Astigmatism correction+ $500
- + Topography-guided treatment+ $500
- + Premium laser platform+ varies
- Actual out-the-door$1,500-$2,000 / eye
See, all LASIK is not the same. We quote the real number up front, one price, every technology your eyes need included. No bait. No switch.

Typically covered
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.
Typically elective
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.

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.
- Lowest total cost - no financing fees
- FSA / HSA fully eligible
- Includes all diagnostics + follow-ups
- Best when surgery is already in your budget
Financed monthly
Structure financing through CareCredit or Alphaeon around the plan that fits your budget.
- 0% APR plans for qualified applicants
- Pay-as-you-go installments
- Extended low-interest plans
- Apply online before your consultation
