To know more about Lasik can find out more at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LASIK. Let me know if I miss out any. And those listed price are for your reference. As there are many kind of Lasik, so need to find out what clinic provide what kind of operation, and what is the price. And what is included in the price, e.g. checkout before operation, the treatment after operation etc... The price also depend on the condition of your eyes also.

Presently, Medisave unfortunately cannot be used, except in cases where the patient suffers from very severe myopia (over -10.0D / -1000 degrees) or imbalanced vision of more than 300 degrees between the two eyes. In such selected cases, you can use your Medisave to pay up to $1,200 of the surgery cost.

Also ALWAYS ask for more info and check with a few more clinics before making a decision, just like buying vegetables in the PASAR!
