What is LASIK?
LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) reshapes the cornea using an excimer laser to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. The procedure takes about 15 minutes for both eyes and most patients achieve 20/20 vision within 24 hours. LASIK is elective and not covered by most insurance plans.
Medicare Coverage
Medicare coverage for lasik is determined by National Coverage Determinations (NCDs). Coverage status shown above reflects national policy. Local Coverage Determinations (LCDs) from your regional Medicare Administrative Contractor may have additional requirements.
