The cost of keratoplasty (corneal transplant) in Ukraine typically ranges from $3,200 to $5,000. Prices vary depending on the type of procedure (penetrating or lamellar), the clinic, the surgeon’s experience, and the source of donor tissue. In the United States, the average cost is $22,500 (per AAO). This means keratoplasty in Ukraine is about 82% less than in the U.S.
Ukrainian clinics usually include pre-op screening, surgery, high-quality donor cornea, anesthesia, one hospital night, medications, and follow-up visits. In the U.S., the base price often covers only the surgeon’s fee; donor tissue, hospital stay, and medications are billed separately. Always confirm what’s covered at each clinic before booking.
