Laser vision correction will rise in price by at least 15% by the fall. Due to expensive imported consumables and parts for lasers. Housing and communal services tariffs will add problems.
The most important consumable is the disposable pack. It is responsible for focusing the beam on the cornea. Only the Germans have it, and prices directly depend on the exchange rate and logistics. Due to this alone, the cost of the operation increases.
In addition to packs, cannulas, napkins, gloves and other consumables, you also need a license for the laser. The set of numbers is also unique; it is entered each time for accounting purposes. Otherwise, the installation will not start at all. Clinics spend an average of 25 thousand rubles on all this.
The second cost item is imported parts for the lasers themselves. The devices are entirely foreign, the upgrade costs a significant amount. Again, taking into account the course and logistics. And if you order a new laser, it’s at least 45 thousand dollars.
By September, the price for a simple operation will be 5-10 thousand higher. Some clinics managed to purchase everything they needed in 2022, even before the rise in prices, but they will not escape the increase in housing and communal services tariffs. Experts predict their growth in the capital by about 11% from July 1, 2024. The clinics told us that these figures would be carefully included in the cost of operations.
