how much does a capsulotomy using YAG laser to treat secondary cataract costs?

it's been less than a year and my vision has blurred after removing my cataract from one of my eye. seems like it could be a case of secondary cataract (I have not consulted the surgeon yet).

secondary cataract is due to residue cells, so is it possible the surgeon did not do a good job of removing the cataract?

    YAG capsulotomies are pretty cheap at about $300 each. Better surgeons have fewer patients that need YAGs but all surgeons will have some patients the need them.
