I had my eye laser surgery performed by Prof. Dr. Adem Anil Kubaloglu and I am very satisfied with the outcome. The professor is an extremely competent, experienced, and successful doctor who carried out the surgery excellently and guided me very well throughout the entire process. A big thank you also to Onur, our driver. He is also a very kind and friendly person. I would also like to especially mention Sabrine, the case manager. She helped us with translation, made communication much easier, and took care of many organizational tasks. Thanks to her support, everything went very smoothly and stress-free. Overall, the entire staff was very friendly, everything was well organized, the appointments were well scheduled, and the whole process was seamless. I can highly recommend Dünyagöz!

I had an excellent experience at Dünyagöz Istanbul. From the very beginning, the staff were welcoming and their communication skills were great. As I travelled from the UK, it was very reassuring to have highly fluent English-speaking staff to guide me through the process. Although there was a slight miscommunication with the contact service team prior to my arrival, Banu stepped in and immediately took matters into her own hands. She arranged my travel to the hotel and supported me throughout my treatment. Banu was absolutely fantastic — she translated everything clearly, made me feel extremely comfortable, and went above and beyond to ensure I was looked after. After my PKR laser treatment, she even gave me her number in case I needed anything. Even now that I am back in the UK, she continues to respond to any questions I have, which shows her incredible dedication and care. I would also like to give my deepest gratitude to Dr. Sezer Hacıağaoğlu. He is truly an outstanding doctor — highly knowledgeable, professional, and kind. From the very first consultation, he explained every step of the process with clarity and patience, which immediately gave me confidence and reassurance. During the procedure, he was calm, efficient, and precise, and I could feel that I was in the very best hands. What impressed me most was how he combined professionalism with genuine care — he made me feel completely comfortable and safe throughout the entire journey. Thanks to his exceptional skill, I can now see clearly without glasses or contact lenses for the first time in 18 years. It is honestly life-changing, and I cannot thank him enough. I highly recommend Dünyagöz Istanbul, especially with Dr. Sezer and the amazing support from Banu. Together, they made the whole experience smooth, comfortable, and successful, and I am so grateful for the excellent care I received.

I had a great time at the hospital, I had a vision correction surgery. The transfer from/to the airport was good, the stay at the hospital was also great, the staff is friendly, the food is delicious. Thank you to the translator for all the work, she accompanied me all the time, during all the examinations, which gave a complete understanding of my situation. Thank you Prof.Dr.Anil Kubaloğlu for the surgery, everything was clear. I was offered three treatment methods, I did the Relex Pro method. The surgery went great, painless. I am satisfied with the result.

I had my laser eye correction done at Dünyagöz Hospital Etiler and I’m very happy with the whole experience. The staff were friendly and professional, and the hospital itself is clean and well-organized. One of the things I really appreciated was that they have Russian-speaking coordinator, which made communication much easier. The rooms are also very comfortable and well-equipped. Overall, I felt very well taken care of and would definitely recommend this hospital to others.

To start, the driver assigned to pick us up in the morning arrived 30 minutes late, which created a stressful start to the day. Upon arriving at the hospital, there was a significant amount of waiting—all day morning till end afternoon. This was frustrating, especially considering that the actual test took less than 30 minutes. Also haven't ate anything because no one told me what was happening but just to "wait" What added to the confusion was the lack of communication from the staff. According to the brochure, the first day was supposed to be dedicated to consultation. However, everything—including the surgery—was suddenly scheduled for the same day, without any prior notice. No one explained what was going on; I was simply told to wait in the lobby without any updates or clear instructions. Overall, the experience felt disorganized and poorly managed. Clear communication and better time management would have made a huge difference. I hope the clinic takes this feedback seriously to improve the patient experience for others in the future.
