Lasik Vision is charging $999 per procedure. The price was set when they had agreed to pay $250 per procedure to VISX. They charge $599 per eye in Canada. They may now price the procedure lower than $999 in the US, closer to the Canadian pricing schedule where procedure fees are $0.

If demand is elastic, the lower fee corporate centers will push growth instead of the higher priced doctors.
