Our partner Sapphire Eye Care lists private cataract surgery from £2,900 per eye for a monofocal lens in 2026, with EDOF lenses from £3,796 and multifocal lenses from £4,300, all-inclusive. Sapphire prices by lens choice rather than location; its clinics are across the South of England, so prices near Plymouth vary by clinic. Each all-inclusive fee covers the consultant surgeon, theatre and hospital fees, the intraocular lens, post-op drops and your follow-up reviews.

Skipping the NHS wait
NHS cataract waiting times vary widely by region and can run to many months. Going private means you are usually assessed and treated within a few weeks, you choose your consultant and your lens, and you can have both eyes treated promptly. Read more about current waits in our guide to the NHS cataract surgery waiting list in 2026, and about the procedure itself on our cataract surgery page.
