LASIK is very different from implantable contact lenses (ICL). There is only 1 price for LASIK regardless of your degree, and regardlass of whether you are treating myopia alone or together with presbyopia and astigmastism.

ICL is very different because there is only one company in the world that manufactures it. For ICL, it will be cheaper for lower degree myopia and more expensive for higher degree myopia. Addition of astigmatism degree would make the cost even more expensive.

To put it simply, ICL varies according to the power of your degree but LASIK doesn’t.
