What exactly are contact lens professional fees?
Depending on the type of lenses you require and the complexity of your case, fees range anywhere from $35 to $165 annually for the contact lens evaluation fee. This charge is in addition to your regular exam fee of $119. For example, if you have been wearing lenses for many years and the doctor feels it is safe for you to continue to wear your current lenses, your contact lens evaluation fee will be lower, usually around $35-55.

Some patients may be charged between $95-165.00 for more involved cases, such as patients with keratoconus, corneal transplants, corneal distortion or high astigmatism.
