ICL Surgery Cost in Busan, Korea
ICL corrects high prescriptions without removing corneal tissue. Its cost depends mainly on the lens type, such as EVO, toric or presbyopia (Viva) ICL, and on precise sizing. Here is what shapes the price at BGSS Busan.
How much does ICL surgery cost in Busan?
ICL surgery cost at BGSS Busan depends on the lens type (EVO, toric or Viva presbyopia ICL), whether astigmatism correction is needed, and whether one or both eyes are treated. Because each lens is ordered to your measurements, the price is confirmed after a comprehensive eye exam.
ICL generally costs more than laser vision correction because it includes a custom implantable lens. In return it can correct very high prescriptions and leaves the cornea untouched.
Lens ordering can add time to your schedule. Ask your coordinator how lens availability affects your travel dates.
ICL options and what affects their cost
| Lens | Corrects | Cost factors |
|---|---|---|
| EVO ICL | Myopia | Lens power, sizing |

| Viva ICL | Myopia with presbyopia | Extended-depth-of-focus optic |
| Revision ICL | Regression after LASIK/LASEK | Lens type, assessment needs |
