How much does laser eye surgery cost?
An eye laser treatment at CARE Vision costs about 1.150 euros per eye. Depending on the visual defect and the individual condition of your eyes, we use the extensively tested treatment methods LASIK, Femto-LASIK, PRK/LASEK as well as Trans-PRK.
1The exact billing is done according to the German Gebührenordnung für Ärzte (GOÄ).
Eye laser surgery saves future costs
After their eye laser surgery, most patients are not only happy about their new attitude to life, but also about the end of the cost spiral for glasses and/or contact lenses. After only a short period of time, saying goodbye to visual aids is also financially worthwhile.
With fair, transparent prices, we make it possible for our patients to benefit from the advantages of laser eye surgery – naturally with optimal treatment quality and first-class service at all times.
Reimbursement
by the health insurance
The costs of eye laser surgery are covered in whole or in part by some private health insurance companies. Please inquire about the exact conditions directly with your health insurance company.
Unfortunately, the statutory health insurance companies do not generally cover the costs of eye laser surgery.
Laser eye surgery: tax deductibility
In its ruling “Expenses for eye surgery by means of laser” of 22.6.2006, the Higher Tax Authority Koblenz determined the following:
“In the case of taxpayers who undergo laser eye surgery, there is always a defective vision and thus a medical condition. The operation therefore represents a curative treatment. The surgical method is also scientifically recognized. Therefore, the representatives of the states decided to recognize the expenses as an extraordinary burden according to § 33 EstG without submission of a medical certificate. ”
For you as a patient, this means that laser eye treatment is tax deductible as an extraordinary burden according to §33 EStG. The amount of the reasonable extraordinary burden depends on your income and your individual circumstances.
The attending physician at CARE Vision will bill the laser eye surgery according to GOÄ. CARE Vision cannot guarantee the actual tax deductibility.
