Paying for Cataract Surgery
The cost of cataract surgery will vary depending on a number of factors. Where you
live, your choice of surgeon and your choice of lens will all affect how much your
surgery costs.
At least a portion of the cost to implant traditional IOLs, such as AcrySof® IQ
Aspheric IOLs, is often covered by private insurance or Medicare. However, advanced
technology lenses, such as AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® IOL and AcrySof® Toric IQ IOL, are
typically not fully covered. Many doctors offer payment plans, but out-of-pocket
costs will vary.
