Currently, our prices are:

  • 40 million VND (approximately US$1,650) Femto-LASIK for both eyes
  • 60 million VND (approximatelyUS$2,500) SMILE surgery for both eyes 
 

Additionally, the standard intake consultation fee of 1.65 million VND (~US$68) will be deducted from the overall surgery cost when you decide to proceed.

For individuals aged 45 and above, we strongly advise considering PRELEX eye surgery as a preferred option over LASIK procedures such as Femto-LASIK or SMILE.

Cataract surgery in Vietnam

The cost of cataract surgery depends on the type of lens selected to replace your natural lens. We use top-quality equipment and either European or USA lenses. You have the option to choose a monofocal lens, which will give you excellent distance vision after surgery, but you will need reading glasses. Alternatively, a multifocal lens eliminates the need for glasses, offering clear vision for both near and far distances. 

Our pricing begins at VND 37 million (approximately US$1500) per eye, ensuring top-quality care. We strictly employ new, sterile disposable materials for each patient, coupled with premium European or American lenses, to guarantee optimal outcomes.

For further details, we invite you to share your phone number, allowing us to connect with you and provide a more comprehensive explanation personally.
