Think about your fees. While I can't tell anyone what fee to
charge for laser cataracts, I can share what went into my deci-
sion. I wanted my laser cataracts fees to cover my costs and reflect
the value of the procedure, but also to result in me using the laser
for as many patients
as possible. Even
though I have the
most laser cataracts
experience in my
area, my fee is just
below the area's aver-
age. Also, for
patients who choose
laser cataracts and a
premium IOL, I don't
charge A (for laser) +
B (for IOL). Instead, I
charge a blended fee
that's lower than A +
B. I take a bit of a
loss with that strate-
gy, but I don't want
to use a premium
IOL without also
using the laser, which
in my opinion gives
me the best pre-
dictability, effective
lens position and
astigmatism control.
