Looking for LASIK in Los Angeles? CCRS is a refractive surgery center led by Dr. Paul C. Lee — board-certified, 25+ years, more than 50,000 procedures. LASIK is $4,000 for both eyes, all-inclusive, and because we also perform SMILE, EVO ICL, PRK and lens surgery under one roof, the recommendation you get fits your eyes rather than our equipment.
A center that owns only an excimer laser has exactly one recommendation to give you. That is where CCRS stands apart. As a full-service vision correction center we also offer SMILE, EVO ICL and lens-based procedures, so the recommendation you get is based on what is truly best for your eyes, not the only procedure on the menu.
Every LASIK procedure here is 100% blade-free and fully customized on the ALCON WaveLight® EX500 and ZEISS VisuMax® platforms, guided by Vario Topolyzer corneal mapping and iTrace visual function analysis. CCRS led the first center in Los Angeles to offer fully bladeless, all-laser LASIK.
At CCRS we go above and beyond to deliver the highest level of customized eye care and advanced vision correction surgery, across three convenient locations in Los Angeles, Sherman Oaks and Pasadena.
The best LASIK surgeon for you is board-certified, has high surgical volume, uses current laser platforms, and offers every vision correction procedure — so the recommendation fits your eyes, not the practice’s menu. Dr. Lee has performed over 50,000 procedures across 25+ years, is fellowship-trained in cornea at Tulane, and personally conducts every exam and every surgery. There is no rotating panel.
Patients choose CCRS for LASIK in Los Angeles for surgeon-led care from evaluation through follow-up, the latest ZEISS and ALCON platforms, transparent all-inclusive pricing, and a 25-year track record that includes professional athletes and performers.
Your evaluation determines which procedure is safest and most effective for your eyes. Here is what each one does, who it suits, and what it costs at CCRS — every price a complete both-eyes package.
$4,000 both eyes — all-inclusive
LASIK in Los Angeles at CCRS reshapes the cornea with a laser to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. At CCRS every case is 100% blade-free: the ZEISS VisuMax® femtosecond laser creates the flap, then the ALCON WaveLight® EX500 reshapes the cornea. You are in the suite about 15 minutes for both eyes, with numbing drops only.
Vision begins clearing within 4–6 hours. Most patients are seeing well enough to drive and work by the next day. Over 98% of our LASIK patients reach 20/20 or better.
Topography-guided Contoura® LASIK is available as an upgrade for patients whose corneal maps show irregularity, quoted at your consultation.
$4,000 both eyes — all-inclusive
SMILE corrects vision through a tiny incision instead of a corneal flap, using the ZEISS VisuMax®. Because no flap is created and more corneal nerve tissue is preserved, SMILE is often the better choice for patients with dry eye tendencies or who play contact sports. More than 90% of our SMILE patients reached 20/20 or better across 250 consecutive eyes.
From $6,000 both eyes
EVO ICL places a soft, biocompatible lens inside the eye, in front of your natural lens. Nothing is removed and no corneal tissue is reshaped, so it is the safest option for very high prescriptions and for thin or irregular corneas that rule out laser surgery. It corrects myopia to −20 diopters, well beyond LASIK’s safe range, and it is removable.
CCRS has performed more than 2,500 ICL procedures. Dr. Mania Asadourian, the first optometrist in the United States to receive EVO ICL, had hers here.
$5,000 both eyes — all-inclusive
PRK reshapes the cornea without creating any flap at all. Recovery takes longer than LASIK — several days of blurred vision rather than hours — but with no flap there is nothing that can ever be displaced. That makes PRK the standard recommendation for boxers, martial artists, military and law-enforcement candidates, and anyone whose corneas are too thin for LASIK.
From $7,000 both eyes
Laser vision correction reshapes the cornea, which does nothing about the natural lens stiffening with age. Refractive lens exchange replaces that lens with a premium intraocular lens, correcting distance vision and reading vision together. For patients in their mid-40s and older, this is often the better long-term answer than LASIK — and it means you will never develop a cataract in that eye.
Quoted at consultation
If a cataract has already begun forming, refractive cataract surgery treats the cataract and corrects your vision in the same procedure, using premium lens implants and the ALCON ARGOS® biometer and ORA® intraoperative guidance for lens-power accuracy. Most patients see clearly without glasses for distance afterwards.
About 60–90 minutes. Monday to Friday, 8:00am–5:00pm, free parking at all three locations.
Stop wearing soft contacts for at least 3 days, rigid gas-permeable lenses for at least 3 weeks — contacts temporarily reshape the cornea and distort the measurements. Bring your glasses, lens details, medications and any prior surgery records.
Corneal topography · pachymetry · refraction · slit-lamp examination · dilated retinal exam · intraocular pressure · tear film and dry eye assessment.
A recommendation from Dr. Lee across every option, the reasoning explained, and your exact all-inclusive price. No obligation.
0% interest financing through CareCredit — a $4,000 package is $66.67 a month over 60 months. FSA and HSA pre-tax dollars accepted, and many vision plans provide member discounts.
Every price covers the surgeon-led evaluation, the procedure itself, all medications, every post-operative visit and any future enhancement. Many Los Angeles practices advertise low teaser rates that climb once wavefront or topography-guided upgrades are added. CCRS has no hidden fees and backs its pricing with a price match guarantee — find a comparable all-inclusive quote in Los Angeles and we will match it. Most health insurance plans do not cover LASIK because it is elective, but starting at $4,000 both eyes all-inclusive, LASIK in Los Angeles at CCRS often costs less than a decade of contact lenses.

Most people who want LASIK can have it. Not everyone should — and knowing the difference is what a real evaluation is for. Your free consultation includes advanced corneal imaging with a personalized recommendation reviewed by Dr. Lee across every option.

LASIK is one of the most studied elective procedures in medicine, with more than 30 years of outcome data and FDA-reported satisfaction above 95%. That does not make it risk-free, and any surgeon who tells you it is should worry you.
Common and temporary: dry eye for weeks to a few months, glare and halos at night that typically fade, and fluctuating vision in the first weeks.
Rare: under- or overcorrection needing an enhancement (included in your package), flap complications, and infection — all well under 1% in experienced hands on current platforms.
What genuinely reduces risk: careful screening, current-generation lasers, high surgeon volume, and a practice willing to say no. When LASIK is not the safest option for a patient, we do not perform LASIK on them. That is the single biggest reason our outcomes hold up.
Laser vision correction does not prevent presbyopia. If you are in your mid-40s or older you will likely still need reading glasses eventually, and refractive lens exchange may be the better long-term answer. We will tell you that at the consultation rather than after.

At CCRS, LASIK is $4,000 for both eyes, all-inclusive — that covers the surgeon-led evaluation, the procedure, all medications, every post-operative visit and any future enhancement. Across Los Angeles, advertised LASIK prices often exclude those items or apply only to the mildest prescriptions. CCRS has no hidden fees and offers a price match guarantee.
The right surgeon is board-certified, has high surgical volume, uses current laser platforms, and offers every vision correction procedure — so the recommendation fits your eyes, not the practice’s menu. Dr. Paul C. Lee has performed more than 50,000 procedures across 25+ years, is fellowship-trained in cornea at Tulane, and was named one of Newsweek’s best eye doctors in America.
You still have excellent options. CCRS offers every major vision correction procedure under one roof — SMILE, EVO ICL for high prescriptions or thin corneas, PRK for thin corneas and contact sports, and refractive lens exchange for patients 45+. Your evaluation determines which is safest and most effective for your eyes.
Most health plans do not cover LASIK because it is elective. CCRS offers monthly financing including zero-interest options through CareCredit — a $4,000 package is $66.67 a month over 60 months — accepts FSA and HSA pre-tax dollars, and many vision plans provide member discounts.
Yes. Consultations at CCRS are completely free and include advanced corneal imaging with a personalized recommendation reviewed by Dr. Paul C. Lee across all options — LASIK, SMILE, EVO ICL, PRK and lens exchange. You can also start from home with the free online vision assessment.
It is a fair all-inclusive price for Los Angeles, and the word all-inclusive is what matters. Advertised prices from $1,500 to $2,500 per eye typically cover the mildest prescriptions only, and bill separately for the pre-operative workup, enhancements and follow-up visits. At CCRS $4,000 is the total for both eyes at any prescription we can treat, including the surgeon-led evaluation, all medications, every post-operative visit and any future enhancement. Compare the total, not the headline.
For most patients the corneal correction itself is permanent and holds at 10 years. What changes is the rest of the eye as it ages: from the mid-40s the natural lens stiffens and reading glasses become likely with or without LASIK, and a cataract may eventually form. Neither is LASIK wearing off. A small number of patients see a mild return of nearsightedness and can be re-treated. At CCRS any future enhancement is included in the original price.
CCRS has three locations: Mid-Wilshire Los Angeles, Sherman Oaks serving the San Fernando Valley, and Pasadena serving the San Gabriel Valley. All are open Monday through Friday, 8 to 5, with free parking.
