I’m an NYPD Officer. Do You Accept PBA Insurance for LASIK or LASEK?

/ Ask Dr Chynn / By

I'm interested in getting LASIK or LASEK. I work for the NYPD and was wondering if you accept our PBA insurance. I'm not even sure if it covers the procedure.

A: Yes, and I have a personal reason for making this possible.

I was the only MD who went down to Ground Zero on 9/11, and that experience left me with a deep and lasting respect for police officers. That’s why I’m the only eye surgeon in NYC who will accept medical insurance as partial payment toward your procedure.

Every insurance plan is different, so the best next step is to call my office directly. My team can walk you through exactly how your PBA insurance applies and what portion, if any, it covers toward LASIK or LASEK. From there, we’ll get you booked for a free consultation.

I look forward to helping you out. I like working with cops.
