Private macular degeneration treatment costs from £945 at Eye Surgery Clinic. That is the price of a dry-AMD photobiomodulation (red light) outpatient session. Wet-AMD anti-VEGF injection packages — whether Eylea, Faricimab (Vabysmo) or an Ozurdex steroid implant — are £2,405 per package, and an initial consultation with OCT imaging is £340. Most wet-AMD patients need a course of injections, which your consultant will outline after assessment.

What’s included in the price

Our wet-AMD injection packages are fixed and all-inclusive. Each £2,405 package covers:

  • Your consultant retina specialist’s fees for the assessment and procedure
  • OCT scanning to assess the macula in detail
  • The anti-VEGF injection or implant and all consumables
  • A follow-up review to check your response
  • A clear, written treatment plan for any ongoing course

The dry-AMD photobiomodulation session is £945, and the initial consultation with OCT is £340 — quoted separately so you only pay for what you need.

0% finance options

You don’t have to pay for a course of treatment all at once. We offer interest-free (0% APR) finance that lets you spread the cost over manageable monthly instalments, typically from 10 to 24 months, subject to status. Full details and an application are on our finance page.

Using private medical insurance

Wet-AMD anti-VEGF treatment is covered by most private medical insurers when it is clinically indicated — you simply need pre-authorisation and a referral. We work with all major insurers. See our guidance for insured patients for how to arrange cover.
