Join over 40 million people worldwide who now live free of glasses and corrective lenses thanks to LASIK laser eye surgery and other advanced procedures.
Please ask our staff regarding payment options. This surgical procedure is ideal for treating refractive errors and offers precise corneal flap creation using the latest technology.
PRK eye surgery is recommended for many patients who may not qualify for LASIK. It reshapes the corneal tissue without cutting a flap, making it a safer option for some.
CLEAR is a cutting-edge surgical technique that corrects vision while preserving more of the natural lens structure.
ICL surgery enhances focusing power and is ideal for severe refractive errors not suitable for traditional laser eye treatments.
This laser treatment replaces the natural lens to treat high refractive errors, much like cataract treatment.
Cataract surgery fees range from $2,500–$5,500 per eye, depending on your private health insurance policies and lens selection. Due to Medicare and health fund regulations, cataract treatment pricing is not bundled. A transparent quote, including theatre fees, will be provided during your free assessment.

Even though LASIK is a quick surgical procedure, lasting about 15 minutes, many wonder how much does laser eye surgery really cost. Below are the key factors that influence the overall price.
A modern laser eye clinic like Focus Vision invests heavily in advanced diagnostic tools to protect your eye health. Our diagnostic equipment alone is valued at over $700,000, ensuring we deliver the safest and most accurate laser eye procedures. We also include follow up care after eye surgery.
LASIK and PRK eye surgery require multiple lasers. A femtosecond laser can cost up to $1 million and incurs use fees of $450–$600 per eye. Excimer lasers used for reshaping corneal tissue add another $400,000–$800,000 in equipment costs. We use the latest technology to ensure premium results and no hidden costs.
Maintaining these devices requires a stable operating environment. Our purpose-built theatre, in a private day hospital, ensures the correct humidity and temperature. This investment in the right environment and theatre fees plays a crucial role in ensuring optimal outcomes for your eye laser surgery.
Becoming a qualified laser eye surgeon in Australia involves about 15 years of training. Our team includes corneal subspecialists who have undergone overseas fellowships. Surgeon experience and surgeon's skill directly impact the results of your laser treatment.
Running a world-class laser refractive surgery clinic involves ongoing expenses, including premises, highly trained staff, insurance, and more.
Focus Vision is committed to transparent pricing and clarity. Whether you choose LASIK, PRK, or cataract treatment, our packages include all consultations, eye drops, surgical techniques, and follow-up care. With interest free payment plans and various payment options available, we help you invest in lasting eye health with confidence tailored to your particular circumstances and needs.

Please speak to our team at your free assessment for details on financing options and eligibility.
Standard elective laser vision correction (LASIK, TransPRK, CLEAR/SMILE, ICL for refractive purposes) is not covered by Medicare. However, some private health fund extras policies may contribute to laser vision correction — particularly BUPA, Medibank Private, Navy Health, and Defence Health. For cataract surgery and clinically indicated pterygium removal, Medicare and private health hospital cover do apply. Our team will check your specific entitlements as part of your free assessment.
Focus Vision's prices are fully all-inclusive. Your quoted price covers: all pre-operative assessments and eye measurements, the surgical procedure itself, the intraocular or corneal lens where applicable, hospital and theatre fees, anaesthetist fees (for ICL, RLE, and cataract surgery), all prescribed eye drops for the post-operative period, and all follow-up appointments for one full year. We do not charge more for higher prescriptions, and we do not charge more for choosing the most advanced technology within a procedure category.
The average Australian spends $500–$1,000 or more annually on glasses, contact lenses, and solutions — $10,000 to $20,000 over 20 years. Laser eye surgery eliminates or dramatically reduces this ongoing cost. Most patients also report significant improvements in quality of life, confidence, and daily freedom beyond the financial calculation.
With a shared commitment to exceptional care, we specialise in advanced corneal surgery techniques, ensuring that every patient receives personalised treatment of the highest standard. Our extensive training and experience in corneal surgery enable us to address a wide range of eye conditions with precision and care.

That's why we are passionate about helping our patients achieve the best possible vision correction results, whether through LASIK, premium cataract surgery, or other advanced procedures. We are here to guide you through every step of the process, providing professional and reassuring care along the way.
