Lasik
We have contracted with many well-known facilities and eye doctors to offer Lasik procedures at substantially reduced fees. You can take advantage of these low fees when procedures are done by network providers. Participants receive a 25 percent discount off the usual and customary price or a five percent off advertised promotions or specials for LASIK services provided by in-network providers, whichever discount is greater. The discount includes consultations, laser procedure, follow-up visits and any additional necessary corrective procedures.
