Prices for surgery with Mr Dimitri Kazakos

These are indicative prices of the market in London and vary greatly from a high street provider to smaller and more private centre. As I am working in more that one centre and more than one country, the cost will be relevant to that individual treatment centre that you would be attending. However, consultations are relatively the same and any post treatment appointments are £150 (follow up assessment) that are not included in your self-pay package or aftercare period. Prices are correct at the time of writing and are subject to annual review, location and country variations.

Initial consultations

Routine assessments for treatment

Laser refractive £150
Refractive lens £220
Cataract £220
Corneal £200 to £350

Please be advised that if you require additional scans or more in-depth assessment on the day additional fees will apply.

Private health insurance: General assessment and main measurements for Cataract is usually covered. Please check with your insurer as extend of cover may differ between different insurers. Usually consultations for refractive procedures are not covered by insurers.
