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

I'm looking into the cost of cataract surgery!

My grandmother has been diagnosed with cataractsㅠㅠㅠ

 

My grandmother lives in Incheon, so it's difficult for her to come all the way to Seoul.

So, I was looking for a good ophthalmology clinic in Incheon.

 

 

I was wondering if Cashdoc is also holding any events.

Oh...! Are they also holding an event for cataract surgery?

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

I'm curious, so I'm hurriedly writing on the Cashdoc community :)

 

There are two places in Incheon hosting cataract events.

So, I will organize and leave the cataract surgery prices for both places!

 

If anyone needs information, I will include the link as well!!

 

Gangnam Brand Eye Clinic Incheon Branch is located in Bupyeong!

Because my grandmother's place is in Bupyeong, I think it would be the best.

 

The price for cataract surgery here is 1.5 million won per eye.

So, you're saying it would cost 3 million won to do both eyes?

Fortunately, they said the price includes the surgery fee.

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

 

iHands costs 1.5 million won!

Bestin Fanoptics, VBT, and Synergy are 2,500,000 won.

Clareon Panoptics costs 3.5 million won... haha

 

Wow... the cost of cataract surgery is incredible...

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

My mom asked me to check if it's also covered by the insurance.

Should I ask about the actual expense insurance during the consultation?

 

I would prefer to have the consultation over the phone first.

I think I should try applying for a consultation before making a decision!

 

Another place is Ain Hospital located in Michuhol-gu.

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

The price here using Synthisis Plus was 3,900,000 won.

Of course, the amount includes anesthesia fees, post-care costs, and VAT!

 

And it is also possible to apply for actual cost insurance.

Since they said they would guide me during the consultation, I think I should go for the consultation!

 

I was surprised that the cost of cataract surgery was higher than I expected, but

I need to think about what will happen if I file for insurance reimbursement!

 

First, I plan to inform my mom according to what I have organized.

Both places seem to be good ophthalmology clinics, but if you know of a better one, please recommend it!!
