RE: As far as I understand it, LASIK is one of the sectors of the health industry run mostly on consumer-driven free market principles since it is not usually covered by insurance.


From its early commercialization over 10 years ago, the price of LASIK procedure per eye has DROPPED by over 100% because of increasing competition.

If only we had something similar for other medical procedures...

“the price of LASIK procedure per eye has DROPPED by over 100%”
