The cost of vitrectomy in Germany generally ranges from $4,000 to $7,000. Prices vary depending on the clinic, the surgeon’s expertise, the complexity of the retinal condition, and whether it’s combined with procedures like membrane peeling or retinal detachment repair. In the United States, the average cost is $9,800 (according to the American Academy of Ophthalmology). Vitrectomy in Germany is typically about 44% less than in the U.S.
German clinics usually include preoperative assessments, the vitrectomy procedure itself (using advanced systems like 23/25/27-gauge), surgical materials, anesthesia, and scheduled follow-up visits. In the U.S., the listed price often covers only the surgeon’s fee, with additional charges for anesthesia, facility use, and post-op care. Always confirm exactly what’s included with your chosen clinic.
