5 Best Lasik Surgery Clinics in New York (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

By Elara Kestrel, Health and Medical Expert · ✓ Data verified August 2026 · 9 min read

Between them, the lasik surgery clinics in New York on this page have logged nearly 4,900 Google reviews, and every one holds a rating of 4.7 or better, which is a remarkably tight cluster for elective surgery. What separates them isn't outcomes on paper, since none publish comparable clinical data, but scale, technology, and the surgeon-patient relationship reviewers describe from consultation through follow-up.

Short answer: The LASIK Vision Institute and LasikPlus are essentially tied at the top with 4.9 stars each, backed by 1,264 and 1,247 reviews respectively. Dello Russo Laser Vision is the independent, non-chain option on this list, also at 4.9. None of these providers post fixed public pricing, so a consultation is needed for an actual quote.

Health information disclaimer: This directory is informational only and not medical advice. Rankings reflect publicly available Google ratings and review volume, not clinical outcomes. Verify any practitioner’s credentials and registration with the relevant medical board before booking.

How we score

Every number on this page comes from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the practice’s live Google star average. Review volume tracks how many patients have rated them, ranked against other New York LASIK providers. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 built on over a thousand reviews carries more weight than one built on a few hundred. Recency reflects how recently patients are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

What does LASIK cost in New York? (2026)

None of the providers on this page publish a fixed public price per eye, since LASIK pricing depends on prescription strength, the specific procedure (traditional LASIK, PRK, or SMILE), and any financing or insurance discounts applied. Several providers, including LasikPlus and LASIK Vision Institute, offer financing and price-matching programs, so ask each practice for a written quote at your consultation before deciding.

Serving Brooklyn and Manhattan

These LASIK providers are concentrated in Brooklyn and Manhattan, with several offering additional locations across the wider New York metro area. Searching for LASIK surgery near me in New York? Every listing above shows a live phone number and directions so you can find the closest consultation.

What to ask before booking LASIK surgery

  • Am I a candidate for LASIK, or would PRK or SMILE be recommended instead?
  • Who performs the actual surgery, and will I meet them before the procedure?
  • What’s included in the price: the consultation, the procedure, and follow-up visits?
  • What financing or insurance options are available?
  • What’s the typical recovery timeline, and what symptoms should prompt a follow-up call?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these LASIK providers?

We started from every LASIK surgery provider in New York with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

What’s the difference between LASIK and SMILE?

SMILE is a newer, minimally invasive laser vision correction procedure that doesn’t require the corneal flap used in traditional LASIK. Manhattan LASIK Center is the provider on this list most frequently cited by reviewers specifically for SMILE and SMILE Pro.

Is it better to choose a chain or an independent LASIK practice?

Both formats appear on this list with strong ratings. Chains like LasikPlus and TLC often offer same-day scheduling and financing programs, while an independent practice like Dello Russo Laser Vision offers continuity with a single named surgeon throughout the process.

The bottom line

The LASIK Vision Institute and LasikPlus are the safest defaults given their review depth and top ratings, while Dello Russo Laser Vision is worth a close look if you’d rather work with an independent, named surgeon from consultation through follow-up.
