LASIK cost in Mumbai isn't one fixed number — it shifts with the technology your eyes actually need. Standard LASIK sits at the lower end; a fully customised Contoura correction costs more. Here's how to think about it.
Let's start where most people start: the price. LASIK surgery in Mumbai typically runs between roughly ₹30,000 and ₹1,50,000 for both eyes. That's a wide range, and the reason is simple. The cost depends almost entirely on which technology your eyes need, not on some arbitrary tier of luxury. At Dr. Simandhar's Eye Care Centre, the price you're quoted is tied to what your corneal tests actually indicate.
So before you compare two numbers from two clinics, know what each number is buying. A cheap quote for the wrong procedure is not a saving. This page is here to make the cost make sense.
Standard LASIK sits at the more affordable end. It's the well-established choice for most regular candidates with adequate corneal thickness. PRK is used when the cornea is thinner, working on the surface instead of creating a flap, and it's priced in a similar practical range depending on your case. Contoura Vision is the premium option. It's topography-guided, mapping the individual contours of your cornea for a customised, refined correction, and it sits at the higher end of the range for that reason.
The jump in price from standard to Contoura reflects the technology and the customisation, not a markup for the sake of it. Whether that jump is worth it for you depends on your eyes and your visual demands, which is a conversation, not a default.
Here's the honest bit clinics rarely say out loud. The most expensive procedure is not automatically the best one for you. Contoura Vision is superb, but if your corneal thickness or shape points to standard LASIK or PRK, then that is the right surgery, full stop, and paying more for the fancier name buys you nothing extra. Sometimes the correct answer is even that LASIK isn't advisable at all.
Dr. Simandhar Baban Sable, practising in Mumbai since 2004, decides the procedure from your tests, not from your budget ceiling. That's the difference between a clinic selling you the top of the menu and a surgeon prescribing what your eyes need. It's also why our patients trust us enough to leave nearly three thousand reviews at 4.9 stars.
We'll be straight about this too, because being surprised at the counter is the worst feeling. Elective LASIK is usually not covered by health insurance. It's classed as a lifestyle or cosmetic procedure by most insurers, so you should plan to pay for it yourself rather than expecting a claim to absorb it.
That's exactly why we offer 0% EMI, so the cost spreads into comfortable monthly amounts instead of one lump sum. We're also CGHS empanelled. When you come in, we lay out the full figure for your specific case, EMI options included, with no vague estimates and no hidden add-ons appearing later.
The single best money you spend on LASIK is on getting screened properly first. Corneal topography maps your cornea's shape, pachymetry measures its thickness, and together they decide which procedure is safe and which price band you actually fall into. Skip or rush this, and you risk paying for a surgery your eyes shouldn't have had.
Think of the screening as the thing that makes the whole cost worthwhile. A correctly chosen ₹40,000 procedure that suits your eyes is a far better buy than a ₹1,20,000 one that was oversold. Good screening is what protects both your vision and your wallet, and we won't cut corners on it.
Detailed corneal scans decide if LASIK, PRK or Contoura is right for you.
Anaesthetic drops only — the eye is completely numb, you stay awake.
A precise flap is lifted on the corneal surface.
A cool excimer laser reshapes the cornea to correct your number — seconds per eye.
The flap is repositioned and self-seals; vision starts clearing within hours.
Broadly ₹30,000 to ₹1,50,000 for both eyes, depending on the technology your eyes need. After your corneal tests we give you an exact figure for your case, with no surprises added later.
Because it's topography-guided and customised to the individual map of your cornea, which is more advanced technology. It's excellent, but it's only worth the extra cost if your eyes actually call for it. We tell you honestly either way.
Usually no. Most insurers treat elective LASIK as a lifestyle procedure, so it isn't covered. That's why we offer 0% EMI and are CGHS empanelled, to make paying for it manageable.
Not necessarily, but ask what procedure it's for. A low price for the wrong technique on your eyes isn't a bargain. The right question is whether the procedure fits your corneal tests, not just which quote is smallest.
Yes, we offer 0% EMI so you can spread the cost over comfortable monthly payments. We'll explain the full amount and the EMI plan clearly before you commit to anything.
