The surgical correction of a defective vision is generally not a compulsory benefit of the health insurance fund. These listed flat rates can therefore not be broken down further into Tarmed positions.
Please note:
The treatment costs of eye diseases such as cataract or corneal transplants, etc. are billed according to TARMED positions or TARMED flat rates and are covered by the health insurance funds. Material costs, follow-up examinations, etc. are also billed via Tarmed in connection with the eye diseases mentioned. Special artificial lenses and laser-assisted lens surgery (Femto Phako) are not covered by the health insurance funds and are charged to the patients.
