The cost of intraocular lens implantation surgery generally ranges from 10,000 to 30,000 RMB per procedure, with specific pricing depending on individual circumstances. Intraocular lens implantation can be categorized into posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation, anterior chamber intraocular lens implantation, and iris-claw intraocular lens implantation. Posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation typically costs between 15,000 and 30,000 RMB per procedure; anterior chamber implantation also ranges from 15,000 to 30,000 RMB per procedure; iris-claw intraocular lens implantation usually costs between 10,000 and 20,000 RMB per procedure. Factors influencing the cost include lens type, surgeon experience, and regional differences.

Principle

The haptics and optical portion of the artificial lens are placed behind the iris, with the haptics positioned in the ciliary sulcus or within the capsular bag of the lens.

The artificial lens is implanted in front of the iris, with its haptics supported in the anterior chamber angle.

The artificial lens is fixed onto the iris using a specially designed structure.

Factors affecting cost:

1. Lens Type: Imported lenses or those made from advanced materials often offer superior quality and performance, and thus typically come at a higher price.

2. Surgeon Experience: Surgeons with extensive experience and high reputation possess greater surgical expertise and technical proficiency, enabling them to deliver more precise and safer procedures, which usually results in higher fees.

3. Regional Differences: Medical resources and technical standards are generally higher in first-tier cities, leading to relatively higher surgical costs.

It is recommended to consult at a正规 medical institution and have the procedure performed by an experienced surgeon to effectively reduce the risk of complications.
