LASIK cost in India is driven mainly by the surgical technique rather than your eye power. This guide compares the main options for both eyes.
LASIK Cost by Technique (Both Eyes)
- Conventional LASIK — Rs 30,000 - 70,000
- Femtosecond / bladeless LASIK — Rs 80,000 - 1,20,000
- SMILE LASIK — Rs 1,20,000 - 1,60,000
Rates shown are as per the typical clinic ranges compiled from Indian eye-care sources (2025) and are subject to periodic revision. Always verify the latest approved rates on the official source.
What Changes With the Technique
Newer techniques such as Femto and SMILE use more advanced equipment and a bladeless approach, which raises the cost. The right technique depends on your eyes; an eye specialist can advise which suits you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which LASIK technique should I choose?
It depends on your corneal thickness, refractive error and the surgeon’s assessment rather than cost alone. An eye specialist will recommend the suitable technique.
