Daily Cost Comparison of Lenses for Astigmatism
The daily cost for wearing toric contact lenses can range from as low as 22 cents per day and per eye to $1.50. The difference is in the replacement modality as monthly replaceable lenses are much cheaper than daily disposable lenses.
This table shows the daily cost per eye for some of the most popular toric lenses on the market.
How we calculated the daily cost: we took an average retail price and used the typical replacement schedule for the lens. For example a daily disposable lens might cost $33 per box, containing 30 lenses, so the daily cost per eye is $1.10. To keep it simple we did not include the cost for other items, such as cleaning solutions that are required for weekly or monthly lenses.
