What changes the cost of retina treatment
The medicine
For injections, the medicine is most of the bill: bevacizumab is the lowest cost, newer long-acting medicines the highest. Ask about the total for the year, not just one dose.
Gas, silicone oil and instruments
In vitrectomy, silicone oil (and its later removal), long-acting gas, dyes and single-use cutters add to the base price.
Combined cataract surgery
Doing cataract and retina surgery together adds the lens cost but avoids a second operation later.
Follow-up
Ask whether post-operative visits, OCTs and drops are included. At Spectra the estimate lists them.
Pay less out of pocket
Retina surgery, laser and injections are covered as day-care procedures by most insurance policies and by CGHS, WBHS and ESI. How cashless treatment works
