Is cataract surgery expensive? Will the cost be covered by insurance?

I'm looking into the price of cataract surgery!

My grandmother said she had cataracts ㅠㅠㅠ

 

My grandmother said that it would be difficult for her to come all the way to Seoul since she lives in Incheon.

So I was looking for a good ophthalmologist in Incheon.

 

 

I was wondering if Cashdoc was holding an event as well.

Oh...! They're also having a cataract surgery event?

So is it a good place and is the price of cataract surgery average?

I'm curious, so I'm writing this in a hurry on the Cashdoc community :)

 

There are two places in Incheon that hold cataract events.

So, I will leave you with the prices of cataract surgery at both places!

 

If anyone needs the information, I'll include a link!!

 

Gangnam Brand Eye Clinic and Incheon branch are located in Bupyeong!

I thought it would be the best because my grandmother's house is in Bupyeong.

 

Here, the price of cataract surgery is said to be 1.5 million won for a single eye.

So, does that mean I need 3 million won to get both eyes done?

Fortunately, they said the price includes the cost of surgery.

The price of cataract surgery varies depending on the multifocal lens.

 

iHance is 1.5 million won!

Bestin Panoptics, Vivit, and Synergy are 2.5 million won.

Clareon Panoptics costs 3.5 million won... lol

 

Wow... the cost of cataract surgery is outrageous...?

I had no idea, but I was really surprised when I saw the price range.

My mom told me to check if I could get health insurance.

I guess I'll have to ask about health insurance during the consultation, right?

 

First of all, I would like to have the consultation done over the phone.

I'll have to apply for a consultation and then decide!

 

Another place is Ain Hospital in Michuhol-gu.

The price of cataract surgery was listed as 3.9 million won.

The price here using Synthesis Plus was 3.9 million won.

Of course, this amount includes anesthesia fees, aftercare fees, and VAT!

 

And they say that actual cost insurance can also be applied.

I should try getting counseling since they said they would give me guidance during the consultation!

 

I was surprised that the cost of cataract surgery was higher than I thought.

I need to think about what would happen if I got health insurance coverage!

 

First, I'm going to tell my mom what I've organized.

Both places seem like good eye clinics, but if there's a better one, please recommend it!!
