LASIK is a laser vision correction procedure that corrects nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism in qualified patients. LASIK permanently reshapes the cornea to correct refractive errors. The result? You’ll experience improved vision and no longer have to depend on glasses or contact lenses to see the world around you!
Clemson Eye offers patients a multitude of vision correction options. We are committed to providing a solution that is right for you. Our eye doctors always take the time to discuss with you the very best options for your specific situation and long-term eye health. Consultations for any vision correction procedures are free and take just 60 minutes!
At Clemson Eye, our team specializes in various vision correction options, ensuring you get the best vision correction procedure for your needs and lifestyle.

While the average cost of LASIK for both eyes is $4,600 as a one-time expense, it's important to consider the long-term financial benefits. When compared to the lifetime costs of prescription eyewear and contact lenses, LASIK proves to be the more cost-effective choice by a significant margin.
The average annual cost of wearing glasses and contacts is estimated at $935 per year. In addition to tax-deferred Health Savings or Flexible Spending Accounts, 0% financing can make your LASIK more affordable than ever.
