What the starting figure means
₹12,000 per eye is the starting charge. It is not a fixed price for everyone. It is a base from which the final charge is worked out after examination.
What changes the final charge
The intraocular lens (IOL): monofocal, toric, multifocal and EDOF lenses differ in design, brand and price. We work with all lens brands.
Eye findings: some eyes need additional steps.
Other conditions: diabetes, glaucoma or other eye disease may need extra care or tests.
Tests before surgery, such as eye measurements and blood tests.
Lens types in plain words
A monofocal lens is set for one distance, usually far, so reading glasses may be needed. A toric lens helps correct astigmatism. A multifocal lens is designed for distance and near vision. An EDOF lens covers distance and intermediate vision, and a premium EDOF lens covers distance, intermediate and near. No lens suits everybody, and glasses may still be needed after any of them. The surgeon explains which fits your eye and routine, and the choice is yours.

Cataract surgery can be covered by eligible health insurance, CGHS and ECHS, subject to approval. The Insurance and cashless team, 96251 54575, can check your policy before the day. Please carry the card or policy and photo ID.
