Just seeing if anyone has proceeded with cataract procedure privately without insurance to help pay for it. If so, what did you pay?
I need to have a cataract procedure in my left eye and I have quoted approx $5000 all up. Will get about $800 back with Medicare.
I have insurance but no cataract coverage but just weighing whether to up my health insurance to cover cataracts and waiting 12 months due to waiting period. Or go private uninsured to get it done sooner.
$5k for eye surgery sounds pretty fair?
