Chicago Lasik Cost
How much does lasik without any insurance?
Actually I have to (lasik) my Pres. is very high but I do not have insurance, how much it cost me? I have $ 4000 do u think it s enough? Besides, I do not know where I can go to do it, I live in Chicago and sometimes I saw the commercial television LASIK more, what u suggest?
$ 4,000 is about right for most places. The best thing to do is call some of their local clinics of Ophthalmology, it's practices to MD, and can offer options to surgery. Many places are not free lasik consultation, and let you know if you still have a candidate. Also, if you wear contact lenses, usually want you to wear glasses for several weeks before surgery with no contact lenses in order to adequately reform the cornea.

You should defiantly do it. My cost $4000, but was the best money I ever spent. Would the military pay? My vision was really bad(coke bottle lens) I went in for the surgery it took maybe an hour. First you need to find out if your a candidate. The exam should be free. Then if you can do it pick a day make sure you have someone to drive you home. It took me an hour or 45 min. When they were done it felt like I had sandpaper in my eyes and they were real sensitive to the light. I went home took a nap and when I woke up it could see it was a little blurry. Then the next day I woke up and could see perfectly in fact I was able to drive to work. I had to sleep with goggles on because you cant rub your eyes for a while and I also used a lot of eye drops. Docs orders.
