Interested in doing a laser surgery? If you are then there are a few things you should know about this surgery and how much does it cost?
Laser surgery is surgery using a laser to cut tissue instead of a scalpel. Examples include the use of a laser scalpel in otherwise conventional surgery, and soft tissue laser surgery, in which the laser beam vaporizes soft tissue with high water content. Laser resurfacing is a technique in which molecular bonds of a material are dissolved by a laser.
For many people, laser eye surgery can correct their vision so they no longer need glasses or contact lenses. Laser eye surgery reshapes the cornea, the clear front part of the eye. This changes its focusing power.
There are 2 main methods of laser eye surgery used today:
1. LASIK Laser Eye Surgery
2. PRK Laser Eye Surgery

The major difference between the two surgeries is the way that the stroma, the middle layer of the cornea, is exposed before it is vaporized with the laser. In PRK, the top layer of the cornea, called the epithelium, is scraped away to expose the stromal layer underneath. In LASIK, a flap is cut in the stromal layer and the flap is folded back.
ALaser surgery would cost $2,000 to $2,500 per eye for LASIK by a reputable surgeon.
You may have seen add for the LASIK as low as $299 per eye. Don’t trust them. There are a number of unscrupulous LASIK provider who use ‘bait and switch’ tactics by advertise prices for packages that are designed to exclude almost all cases. In fact, this is issue had gotten so bad several years ago that it warranted a congressional investigation.

* Royalties owed to laser manufacturers.
