We Offer Flexibility and Affordability

Many of our patients have compared the cost of glasses and contact lenses over a ten-year period to the cost of LASIK surgery in Los Angeles and many have found that their LASIK surgery and other procedures are a more economical option. Designer frames, contacts, lens solutions, eye doctor visits and high tech lenses can exceed thousands of dollars in only a few years. Financing cataract or LASIK eye surgery can be arranged just as you would finance a home improvement or a new car.

        Tax Free Flexible Spending Accounts

        Flexible Spending Accounts, or FSAs, utilize the tax codes to allow pre-tax income to be set aside to pay for medical costs, typically between $3,000 and $4,000. 

        Your tax advisor will set it up if you meet the requirements. The FSAs are an option if you have a job based health plan. If not, there may be other Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) that are a better option for you.

        Lines of Credit in Los Angeles

        For many patients who own their home, arranging a line of credit is another way of financing your eye care procedures. In this case, the interest on your loan may be tax deductible, making the cost of financing your procedure more affordable.

        Cost vs. Value An Investment in Your Vision

        When considering vision correction, it’s natural to focus on the upfront cost. But for many of our patients, LASIK and other procedures are more than just medical expenses—they’re life-changing investments.

        Think of the years spent buying prescription glasses, replacing lost contact lenses, stocking up on solutions and cases. Those recurring costs add up quickly. In fact, the average person spends over $500 a year just to maintain their current level of vision. Over 10 years, that’s more than the cost of LASIK. But the value of clear vision goes far beyond the numbers.

        If you’ve been researching LASIK eye surgery cost in Los Angeles, you’ve probably noticed a wide range of pricing—and it can be overwhelming. But when you choose a practice that combines surgical excellence with the latest technology, you're not just paying for a procedure. You're investing in your long-term vision and quality of life.

        Our patients tell us the decision to invest in vision correction is one of the best they've ever made. It’s not just about saving money over time—it’s about gaining confidence, comfort, and a better quality of life.

        Patient Testimonails

        Go to Maloney-Shamie-Hura, they are so wonderful. Every member of the team is lovely. The procedure, payment, and care is clear and upfront (the cost is also amazing for the best work in the state.) Exactly seven days later now, writing this, I can see 20/20. Hallelujah!

        M.R.

        Dr. Maloney was friendly, answered all my questions, and inspired confidence. Everyone in his office was friendly and treated me respectfully. My surgery went perfectly. I had 20/20 vision by the next day. No pain. A+, 10/10, would highly recommend. And it was affordable!

        U.

        I had LASIK back in mid-October with Dr. Maloney and I'm really happy with the results. I used a discount coupon through my optometrist, so the procedure was slightly more affordable. The staff was lovely and kind, and Dr. Maloney himself was very calm and thoughtful. 3 months later, my dry eye is nearly gone and I have 20/20 vision.

        Taylor M.

        Dr. Maloney did and exceptional job before, during and after my surgery to ensure I was comfortable every step of the way. The procedure was very fast and he communicates everything he is doing, I felt extremely safe during the process. My recovery went well with no complications. I went to a couple other consults that were more affordable, but there is no comparison to Dr. Maloney.

        Does insurance cover LASIK?

        Most insurance plans consider LASIK and other vision correction procedures elective, meaning they are not typically covered. However, we’re happy to provide you with the necessary documentation if your plan offers any type of vision reimbursement or discount program. You can also use FSA and HSA funds to pay for your procedure tax-free.

        How much does LASIK cost in Los Angeles?

        The LASIK eye surgery cost in Los Angeles can vary based on technology used, surgeon experience, and the specific needs of your eyes. At Maloney-Shamie Vision Institute, our pricing reflects the highest level of care, technology, and results. We’ll provide you with a precise cost breakdown at your free consultation.

        What if I can’t afford to pay all at once?

        We offer multiple financing options through trusted partners like CareCredit and Alphaeon Credit. Many patients qualify for 0% interest promotional plans or low monthly payments that make LASIK surprisingly affordable.

        Can I use my FSA or HSA to pay for LASIK?

        Yes! Both Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) and Health Savings Accounts (HSA) can be used toward LASIK and other qualifying vision correction procedures. It’s a great way to save on taxes while investing in your eyesight.

        Is LASIK really worth the cost?

        Absolutely. Many patients find that LASIK pays for itself within just a few years by eliminating the ongoing expenses of glasses, contacts, and related supplies. Beyond the financial benefits, it’s an investment in comfort, confidence, and quality of life.

        Are there hidden fees I should know about?

        No. We believe in complete transparency. During your consultation, we’ll provide a personalized quote that includes everything—pre-operative testing, the procedure itself, and all necessary follow-up visits. No surprise charges. Ever.
