LASIK and other vision correction procedures can cost thousands of dollars and are often not covered by insurance. Point-of-sale (POS) financing empowers vision care providers to offer flexible monthly payment options, making procedures more affordable for patients while increasing conversion rates. SuperMoney’s platform helps clinics streamline financing and get paid upfront—without taking on financial risk.

Why Vision Centers Should Offer Patient Financing
Vision correction procedures like LASIK and PRK are typically considered elective and not reimbursed by insurance. This leaves patients with a major financial hurdle, especially when multiple family members are seeking care.
Here’s a snapshot of typical costs:
- LASIK surgery: $2,000 to $3,500 per eye (Vision Center)
- PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy): $1,500 to $3,000 per eye (NVISION Eye Centers)
- Refractive lens exchange or implantable lenses: $4,000 to $6,000 per eye (WebMD)
With these costs often paid out of pocket, many patients delay or forgo treatment altogether. Offering patient financing gives them a path forward—while helping your practice improve patient flow and case acceptance.
What Is POS Financing for Vision Correction Clinics?
Point-of-sale (POS) financing allows patients to apply for financing during their consultation or immediately after receiving a quote. If approved, the patient pays over time while your clinic gets paid upfront by the financing provider.
Benefits for your clinic:
- Get paid in full without delay
- Reduce treatment drop-offs due to cost
- Avoid in-house billing and collections
- Offer a seamless, modern experience
Benefits for your patients:
- No large upfront payment
- Fixed, affordable monthly payments
- Quick, soft-credit application process
- Higher likelihood of moving forward with care
