Before you book: three questions that change the price
- Is this the self-pay price, and does it include the doctor, anesthesia and any lab or pathology? Those are often billed separately.
- Can you give me the price in writing, with the billing codes it covers?
- What happens to the price if something extra is needed during the procedure?

How where you go changes what you pay for glaucoma laser surgery
The same glaucoma laser surgery bundles different services depending on the setting - facility fee, surgeon fee, and anesthesia each arrive as separate bills. Estimated ranges below reflect the typical full bundled cost, including all expected charges.
- Facility fee $191–$4,681
- Professional fee $302–$804

Indiana has one of the most concentrated hospital markets in the Midwest, which the FTC has previously flagged as insufficiently competitive. Indiana University Health and Ascension St. Vincent hold significant combined market share in Indianapolis. The lack of robust competition is reflected in commercial reimbursement rates that run above the Midwest average.

Why prices vary - and what it means for your coverage
A small number of hospitals (12) report prices above $1,064, including Community Health Network, Inc. at $2,439, which drives most of the overall spread - excluding them, most facilities cluster in a much tighter band. Setting matters too: the median outpatient price is $578 versus $4,681 inpatient (about 8.1× more), so where a procedure happens often matters more than which hospital you pick.
None of the prices above are what you'll necessarily owe: your deductible, out-of-pocket maximum, and each provider's network status all still apply.
| Your situation | Estimated out-of-pocket |
|---|---|
| Deductible not yet met | ~$578 |
| Deductible met - 20% coinsurance | ~$116 |
| Out-of-network provider | $1,272+ |
Frequently asked questions: glaucoma laser surgery costs in Indiana
How much does a glaucoma laser surgery cost in Indiana?
The typical insurer-negotiated rate is $504, with most facilities between $69 and $584 (based on 50 hospitals reporting negotiated rates). Posted cash prices at the middle 80% of Indiana hospitals run $312–$1,283; outlier facilities above and below that range are left out. What you pay depends on the facility, your insurance, and whether you have met your deductible.
Where is the cheapest place to get a glaucoma laser surgery in Indiana?
Based on declared prices, the lowest posted price in our Indiana data is St. Mary's Warrick Hospital, Inc. at about $320. By metro, Newburgh has the lowest median ($199).
Why is a glaucoma laser surgery so much cheaper at some Indiana hospitals?
Typical prices vary about 8.5× (25th to 70th percentile of negotiated rates) because each hospital sets its own list price, cash discount, and insurer-negotiated rates. In Indiana, the median cash (self-pay) price is $574 versus a median negotiated rate of $845 - cash is the lower number at many hospitals. Asking for the cash price as well as your insurer's negotiated rate is often the single biggest lever on what you pay.
How much will I actually pay out of pocket for a glaucoma laser surgery in Indiana?
Your out-of-pocket cost depends on your deductible, coinsurance, out-of-pocket maximum, and whether the facility is in-network - not just the sticker price. If you have not met your deductible, you will typically pay the negotiated rate in full until you do. Use the CostKits cost forecaster to estimate your specific out-of-pocket amount before you go.
