@PeachySummer I remember some horror stories when the technology first came out decades ago, but it's been perfected at this point. Just shop around for the best price because insurance often doesn't pay for it.
@PeachySummer Just call around to the different providers in your area and get quotes. There may be discounts or payment plans though: https://www.goodrx.com/insurance/fsa-hsa/is-lasik-covered-by-insurance
