Having journeyed with many pet patients through the process of cataract surgery for numerous years, there are 6 areas of potential expenditure that we think are important to highlight:

Contingency Funds

£1800*

The majority of our patients reach a successful conclusion within the costs of their surgical package. Where complications occur, a minority* of patients may require additional expenditure

Initial Cataract Assessment

£255

A initial 30 minute detailed examination and discussion to evaluate a patient's cataract status, their needs and options

Long term medications

£20-60 per month

Approximately 40% of patients will benefit from long term eye drops to optimise their eye health and vision. We can provide written prescriptions to minimise this expenditure

Surgery Packages

£3600 - single eye

£4500 - both eyes

Costs from day of surgery to month three for a single cataract correction and for both eyes undergoing cataract surgery

Electroretinography (ERG)

£400

Having undergone an initial cataract correction, we will recommend that a small percentage of patients undergo ERG testing to determine if surgery is in their best interests

Long term follow up checks

£133 per review

Having completed their surgical recovery, we typically encourage long term follow-up to guard against any eye health issues with checks at 6-12 month intervals
