Introduction
The price of intraocular lenses generally ranges from 800 to 12,000 yuan per piece, depending on the specific type. Intraocular lenses can be classified into single-focus, dual-focus, and trifocal lenses. Single-focus intraocular lenses typically cost between 800 and 1,000 yuan per piece; dual-focus intraocular lenses usually range from 2,500 to 5,000 yuan per piece.
Artificial intraocular lenses generally cost between 800 and 12,000 yuan per piece, with specific prices depending on the type. Artificial intraocular lenses can be categorized into single-focus, dual-focus, and trifocal types. Single-focus intraocular lenses typically cost 800–1,000 yuan per piece; dual-focus lenses range from 2,500 to 5,000 yuan per piece; and trifocal lenses usually cost 10,000–12,000 yuan per piece. Factors influencing price include brand quality, complexity, and regional differences.

Factors affecting price:
1. Brand Quality: Well-known brands typically employ more advanced manufacturing technologies and stricter quality control standards, resulting in more stable performance and longer service life, hence higher prices.
2. Complexity: High-end lenses such as multifocal or astigmatism-correcting (toric) lenses have more complex designs, requiring higher technical expertise and more precise manufacturing processes, thus commanding higher prices.
3. Regional Differences: In economically developed regions, where medical resources are abundant and healthcare technology is advanced, the prices of artificial intraocular lenses tend to be relatively higher.
It is recommended to consult at a正规 medical institution and have the procedure performed by an experienced physician to effectively reduce the risk of complications.
