In terms of price, multifocal lenses are the most expensive. Because these lenses are able to overcome blurring due to cataracts and help patients see objects at near, medium, to far distances.
This type of toric lens has the function of helping our eyes return to having clear vision, it can also overcome cylinder eyes (astigmatism).
While monofocal lenses can only help see within a certain distance and have not been able to overcome cylinder eyes.
