Can I use medical insurance card to reimburse for eye surgery?
Myopia surgery cannot be reimbursed by medical insurance. Myopia surgery can improve the face value of girls to a certain extent, and can also avoid the trouble of boys wearing glasses when exercising. Although myopia surgery has brought great benefits to myopia, myopia surgery itself is not a cure, so it is not covered by medical insurance reimbursement.

So you don't need to be hospitalized after myopia surgery, you can go home after a rest.

2. Myopia surgery is not covered by medical insurance reimbursement.

In any place, all myopia operations are not covered by medical insurance reimbursement, which belongs to ultra-minimally invasive surgery in outpatient department. Although China's medical security system has been gradually improved, laser myopia surgery is similar to eye plastic surgery, and not every myopic friend needs it, so myopia surgery is not within the scope of medical insurance reimbursement stipulated by the state.
