The Ocumetics™ Technology Corporation, according to its official website, was established to help achieve the goal of creating an intraocular lens suited to restore your eyesight at all distances.
Using advanced materials and production techniques, the corporation, today, is currently in the processing stages of developing an advanced intraocular lens, known as the Bionic Lens™, that is able to restore clear vision at any and all distances, without the need of any contact lenses or eyeglasses and without any vision quality problems often associated with current accommodative and multifocal intraocular lens designs.
As of today, the Bionic Lens™ is a trademark applying to an array of patented intraocular lens designs, relating to intraocular lenses that have the capability to auto-regulate inside of the eye, helping it focus at a variety of ranges — distance, intermediate, near and very near.
The cost of the Ocumetics™ bionic lens
At the time of this publishing (2018), the company is currently in the clinical testing stages, according to BigThink.com, and if everything were to go according to plan, then the lens could be available in the next few years. The early adopters, according to the article, will have to pay about $3,200 per lens, excluding the costs of the surgery. As the lens will use a cataract surgery technique, with the average cost of this surgery being $3,000 per eye, our estimates, when the lens releases, could be in the $6,000 per eye range, including surgery, without any insurance coverage. This is just an estimate, and seeing the lens is not available just yet, we can update the costs posted by other patients in the future once the information is readily available. For now, this is an estimate based on guesstimates from other publications that were able to talk with the company.
Like any surgery, other factors can affect this cost, including the geographical region, your surgeon, the facility, the bill inclusions, your insurance and if any complications were to arise.
