In the Chicago suburbs I had it done for $1500 an eye. When I told my Dr what they were charging in Fl he laughed and said I'm living in the wrong state. These Dr's in TV definitely are gouging the seniors for the toric lens (you won't need reading glasses) because they can! I was with a friend at Ocala eye and he tried talking a friend of mine into these lens even tho it was not necessary as standard lens would be fine. He didn't even wear reading glasses! After the Dr at Ocala Eye finished his promotion, I asked if I could say something. I told my friend, who was not aware of the situation, that standard lens would be fine for him. The Dr stared at me in amazement. My friend saved $3K. Also these lens are all made by the same company, so no price difference,
