For many people considering LASIK the question of cost is a major factor in their decision. While it is true that if one has one old pair of glasses and does not get regular eye-care, the costs can sound prohibitive, for most people it is actually quite affordable. Let us take a look at what most people spend at the eye doctor over a five to ten year span, and we can see that LASIK is a breakeven proposition over this time horizon. When the additional considerations of designer glasses, special coatings, and bifocals are considered, this can be covered in three years. And if flexible spending accounts are utilized, the time to break even can be as little as two years. This is coincidentally the time of no interest financing that is offered which makes LASIK, from a cost perspective, even more inviting.
