Patients can wear contacts that are designed to be changed and replaced every day. These are the so-called âdaily wearâ contacts and they are the most popular option. Another type of contacts is the âextended wearâ contact lens that can be worn continuously for a week. This means that patients can wear them even overnight with no problems what so ever and they only have to replace them once a week.
If your eye doctor recommends and prescribes disposable bifocal contact lenses, an estimated per-box cost for these lenses is $50 to $70 (similar to the cost of disposable toric contacts). So again, an annual lens cost of $500 to $700 is not unusual if you wear the lenses daily and replace them every two weeks. number of factors can change this estimate, including: Astigmatism. Contact lenses that correct astigmatism cost more than soft contacts that only correct nearsightedness or farsightedness. Soft contact lenses for astigmatism, called toric contacts, frequently retail for $50 to $70 for a box of six lenses.
