How much does laser eye surgery cost?

If you're thinking about laser eye surgery, one of the first questions you might ask is, “How much does it cost?” That’s a smart question. And the answer depends on a few things.

At Blink Vision Clinic we want you to feel informed and confident. So let’s break it down.

The short answer:

Laser eye surgery usually costs between $3,500 and $4,500 per eye.

That price depends on the type of laser procedure you choose and what your eyes need.

Why the price varies:

Not all laser treatments are the same. At Blink Vision Clinic, we offer:

1. LASIK: This is the most well-known option. It's fast and safe. Most people see clearly the very next day.
2. TransPRK (also called SmartSurface): This is a ‘no touch’ laser method. It’s great for people with thin corneas or active lifestyles. The recovery takes a little longer, but the long-term results are excellent.
3. PresbyMAX: This is designed for people over 45 who want to see clearly up close and far away—without needing reading glasses. It’s a laser-blended vision solution.

Each of these options uses high-tech lasers and is personalised to your eyes. That customisation is one reason for the price difference.

What’s included in the cost?

At Blink Vision Clinic, the cost covers everything you need:

• Your full eye assessment
• Your personalised treatment plan
• The laser eye procedure itself
• All post-op check-ups.

There are no hidden extras. You get full care from start to finish.

Is laser eye surgery worth the cost?

We get it. It’s a big decision. But here’s something to think about.

If you spend $500 a year on glasses, contact lenses, or solutions, that’s $5,000 over 10 years. Laser eye surgery can be a one-time cost that saves you all that hassle—plus gives you freedom.

And that freedom is priceless:

• No more foggy glasses
• No more forgetting your lenses
• No more packing spares for travel.

Just clear, comfortable vision.

Can I claim anything back?

Laser eye surgery isn’t covered by Medicare. But some private health insurers may give you a rebate, depending on your level of cover and provider.
