a Base case 2: Cost-effectiveness acceptability curve. The graph gives the probability that HL/S (100 %) or EVLT (1 %) would be considered cost effective for a €50000 threshold of willingness to pay b Monte Carlo simulation of EVLT vs. HL/S A 10,000-iteration Monte Carlo simulation of a patient undergoing EVLT. The incremental cost and incremental effectiveness of EVLT compared with HL/S is plotted for each iteration. Of 10000.00 iterations, 8972.00 showed HL/S to dominate EVLT by possessing ICERs below the €50,000/QALY threshold (northwest quadrant)
