Japan, South Korea, and the United Kingdom (notably Moorfields Eye Hospital and other major research centres) are leading in human retinal cell-therapy trials. Switzerland offers private treatment at premium cost (€12,000–20,000). The United States has active research programmes but limited commercial availability.
Cell therapy for macular degeneration remains expensive and largely experimental. Treatment costs range from €6,000 to €15,000+ per eye, reflecting iPSC derivation, long-term cell expansion, quality-control testing, and the technical complexity of subretinal or intravitreal injection. Baseline and follow-up imaging (optical coherence tomography [OCT], visual field testing, electroretinography) adds €2,000–4,000. The condition typically affects both eyes, so bilateral treatment approaches €15,000–30,000.
