What does Acular LS cost (and what affects the price)?
“Acular LS” is the brand name of ketorolac ophthalmic solution 0.4% (liquid drops). Drug costs can vary a lot by:
- Strength and formulation (Acular vs Acular LS can differ)
- Bottle size (commonly supplied as a small ophthalmic unit)
- Pharmacy and location (retail price vs negotiated pricing)
- Insurance coverage (copay vs cash price)
- Whether a generic is available at your pharmacy
Because you didn’t specify your country, zip code, bottle size, or whether you need cash price vs insured copay, I can’t give a single accurate number yet.
Is there a generic option that’s cheaper than Acular LS?
If an equivalent generic (ketorolac ophthalmic) is available where you are, it is often cheaper than the brand. The exact availability depends on your market and pharmacy formulary. If you share your location (or at least country + whether you want cash price), I can narrow down likely options.
Can I find the current listed price online?

3) Do you want cash price or an insured copay?
Quick clarification: did you mean “Acular LS” eye drops?
Sometimes people mean similar-sounding products. If you confirm it’s ketorolac ophthalmic 0.4% (Acular LS), I’ll make the price guidance match that exact product.
