There are a number of factors that can contribute to the cost of cataract surgery. These can include the type of procedure used, the severity of the cataract, and where the surgery is performed.
The type of procedure used is one of the most important factors in determining the cost of cataract surgery. There are two main types of procedures, traditional cataract surgery and laser-assisted cataract surgery. Traditional cataract surgery is the more common type of procedure, and typically costs less than laser-assisted surgery.
The severity of the cataract can also affect the cost of surgery. More severe cataracts will usually require more extensive surgery, and thus will be more expensive.
Finally, where the surgery is performed can also impact the cost. Surgery performed in a hospital or surgical center will typically be more expensive than surgery performed in an outpatient setting.
The cost of lenses used for Cataract Surgery can vary depending on the type of lens and the location of the surgery. In South City, the average cost of a standard monofocal lens is $1,500. This type of lens is typically used for patients who do not have any other vision problems. For patients who require a more specialized lens, the cost can range from Rs. 20,000 to Rs. 40,000. The most expensive type of lens is the intraocular lens, which can cost up to Rs. 50,000.
