Cataract business is much less profitable for the hospital then retina surgery on a per case basis (this according to my hospital CEO whom I was discussing this about a week ago)
Very true doc. Retina cases are generally more complicated and labor intensive, hence more $$$ for everyone involved, including the hospital.
I was referring simply to volume, in which case cataract >> any retina procedure.
