Conjunctivitis surgery cost

    I have a Persian cat that I think has an eye infection (probably conjunctivitis). She is on a course of eye droplets for it (with almost two weeks now) and it has improved a bit but has not cleared up completely. I have taken her to the vet (he put her on the drops) and I took her back today. He said to keep her on the drops but if they don't clear it surgery is an option. Just wondering does anyone know how much this will cost? I know it can vary depending on where you go but I'd like to have a rough idea.
    I'd be prepared to pay it (well no choice I suppose) if it was guaranteed to cure the infection.

    Depends entirely on what the surgery is - I would want an ophthalmologist to see the cat before I scheduled any surgery

    Thanks, she has got a bit better so maybe she won't need surgery I am hoping.

    It is almost cleared, there is still a bit of grey there but hopefully it will go away.
    I don't have the cat anymore now, I had to give her away (long story) but she is gone to an excellent home with an owner who is an animal-lover and knows about the eye.
