With these hotter-than-hot LASIK savings, you’ll be ready to enjoy all that Oklahoma has to offer without the hassle of glasses or contacts. But before we get into Oklahoma’s top 10 summer activities to experience with clear vision, here are some important questions to ask about LASIK.

What is the cost of LASIK in Oklahoma City?

The cost of LASIK can range from $1,000 to $3,000 per eye, depending on several factors, including location, provider, and technology used. According to a 2021 report in Clinical Ophthalmology, the average cost of LASIK in the United States in 2020 was $2,632 per eye.

At nJoy Vision, we’re proud to say our price for advanced, all-laser LASIK in Oklahoma City is well below the national average. We also strive to make the cost of LASIK more affordable for our patients with special financing and savings options.

Does LASIK hurt?

LASIK is generally not painful. Most patients experience little to no discomfort during the procedure.

Before the surgery begins, numbing eye drops are applied to ensure you don’t feel any pain. You might feel slight pressure during the procedure, but it is typically brief and manageable. 

After the surgery, it’s common to experience some mild discomfort, such as a gritty sensation, dryness, or light sensitivity. These symptoms usually resolve within a few days.

What is the recovery time for LASIK?

One of the great benefits of LASIK is the quick recovery time. After sleeping to rest their eyes, most LASIK patients fully recover within 12 hours and can see 20/20 or better in 24 hours.

How long does LASIK last?

LASIK permanently changes the vision of patients with myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism by reshaping the cornea. Many patients experience 20/20 vision or better for decades but may encounter typical age-related vision problems in their 40s, requiring reading glasses.

Carved into the Cookson Hills, the Illinois River is a sparkling 60-mile scenic waterway in northeastern Oklahoma. Every summer, thousands of people flock to this picture-perfect river to navigate its gently flowing waters, admire its steep rocky bluffs, and enjoy the breathtaking scenery.

Or, worse yet, you plunge into the cool, clear water next to your raft, and the current steals your glasses away.
