Everything priced is cheaper than at home, by a wide margin for refraction, cataract surgery and a simple pair of glasses, and barely for a Ray-Ban frame. The page is thin: contact lenses, progressive glasses and laser eye surgery are listed without a Hanoi price. Check what each figure is. The glasses price is a shop combo with a budget lens, so it is not like for like with a branded Dutch pair. Vinmec's examination prices are for a booked visit, and its tariff charges more without an appointment. The tariff does not say whether the cataract price is per eye or includes the lens, and the measurements before surgery are billed separately. The Ray-Ban figure is the list price; the shop shows a lower price. The flight is yours to add. Providers in Hoi An are included and marked with their city. ## Providers | Provider | Priced items | Cheapest on | Phone | Hours | Note | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | Bệnh viện Đa khoa Quốc tế Vinmec Times City | 5 | 5 | | | Private international hospital in Hanoi that publishes one dated PDF tariff (effective 03.04.2026) with a rehabilitation group of single physiotherapy modalities, ENT consultations and procedures; the tariff says it also applies to the clinic. | | Bello Hà Nội | 1 | 1 | 024.6686.9898 | 8:30 - 21:30 | Hanoi optician and watch shop (Bello Lê Thái Tổ) that prints list prices for Ray-Ban frames on its product pages. | | Kính Mắt Nhung Hiếu | 1 | 1 | 0985.051.760 | | Hanoi optician with a published price for a frame plus coated lens combo and a free eye measurement process. | | Bệnh viện Đa khoa Quốc tế Thu Cúc | 1 | 0 | 1900 558 892 | | Private hospital group with its first hospital on Thụy Khuê; one list price table for the system with service and BHYT columns.
