Planning the Cost

How Much Does
Myopia Control Cost?

Myopia control is a plan that runs for several years, so the useful question is not the price of one item. It is which costs come once, which repeat, and how often. Build a plan below to see the shape of it.

Quick Answer

How much does myopia control cost?

The cost of myopia control depends on the treatment chosen and how long it runs. Every plan has an assessment and six-monthly reviews. Control glasses are replaced when the power changes, atropine drops are a small monthly cost, orthokeratology lenses are replaced about once a year, and daily control contact lenses are an ongoing supply.

Why Two Families Pay Different Amounts

The same treatment can cost different amounts for different children.

  • The power and any astigmatism, which decide the lens design
  • How fast it is changing, since fast change means more frequent lens updates
  • Whether one treatment is enough or two are combined
  • The age at starting, which sets how many years the plan runs
  • Frames, coatings and spare pairs chosen on top of the lenses

The cost of the lenses or programme itself depends on what the assessment finds, so it is quoted in writing after the evaluation, before you commit to anything. Ask us for the yearly figure as well as the starting figure, so there are no surprises.

What matters most

General guidance from published research. Suitability is confirmed at an assessment.

Weighing Cost Against Benefit

The return is a lower final power: thinner lenses for life, a wider choice of correction as an adult, and a lower risk of the retinal problems that come with high myopia. The low-cost parts of a plan are also the most reliable. Outdoor time is free, and attending every review makes sure money is not spent on a treatment that is not working.

Common Questions

Questions Families Ask

Is myopia control covered by insurance in India?
Most health policies in India do not cover glasses, contact lenses or myopia control. Check with your insurer. We provide itemised receipts and clinical reports for any claim you make.
Which myopia control option costs the least?
Outdoor time is free. Among treatments, low-dose atropine usually has the lowest running cost, though glasses are still needed alongside it. Lens-based options cost more but combine correction and control in one.
Are myopia control glasses worth the extra cost?
For a child whose power is rising, they are the only spectacles shown to slow it. For a stable adult power there is no benefit over standard lenses.
How often will the lenses need replacing?
Control glasses are updated when the power changes or the frame no longer fits, often every 12 to 18 months. Orthokeratology lenses are usually replaced yearly.
