About the clinic
Hisar Hospital Intercontinental in Istanbul, Turkey offers full-scope cataract care. Diagnostics like OCT imaging may cost around $210, while a basic consultation is about $130. Surgical options with a monofocal lens start at approximately $1,000 per eye, and premium trifocal lens surgery can be around $2,600. The clinic's 31-year lead surgeon performs over 1,000 cataract procedures.
Precise diagnostics determine the best treatment plan. The process includes several key tests:
- Ophthalmologist consultation for a thorough eye exam.
- OCT (Optical coherence tomography) for detailed retina imaging.
- Pentacam and Biometry to map the cornea and calculate the correct lens power.
- Blood tests and advanced imaging like brain MRI when needed.
Surgical Treatment Options
The standard method is phacoemulsification. This is a minimally invasive procedure. It uses ultrasound to break up the cloudy lens. The surgeon then replaces it with a new artificial lens. All surgeries typically use local anesthesia and allow same-day discharge.
Patients can choose from different intraocular lens (IOL) types:
- Standard Cataract Surgery with a monofocal IOL. This restores clear distance vision. Patients often need glasses for reading.
- Premium Cataract Surgery with a trifocal or multifocal IOL. This option can reduce dependence on glasses. It improves vision for near, intermediate, and far distances.

I can confirm that this part of my medical journey was managed with thorough competence
My primary concern before traveling for a PET-CT with Gallium 68 was the logistical side of things and whether every step would be clearly explained and executed in a new medical system. These worries proved to be entirely unfounded. The entire process was managed with clear and direct communication from the staff and the surgeon, which made a significant difference. The clinic's organization was evident. Everything was handled systematically, and each stage of the diagnostic procedure was laid out for me beforehand, so there were no surprises. The approach was very professional. but I can confirm that this part of my medical journey was managed with thorough competence.

The care I received on-site was excellent
The most important thing for future patients to know is to be prepared for new realities. I came ready for a laser enucleation operation for my medium-sized prostate, but I ended up undergoing a steam ablation procedure instead after my consultation. My surgeon was very good. He clearly explained the urination improvement timeline, which was quite reassuring as I begin my recovery. Although there has been little contact from the clinic since I left, the care I received on-site was excellent. My main advice is to go in with an open mind, as your final treatment plan might be different from what you initially expected.

My journey felt "perfect"
What stood out most was the surgeon's personal approach. He showed me exactly what would be removed and set very realistic expectations for weight loss, which built a lot of trust. He even visited me personally after my sleeve gastrectomy. My journey felt "perfect". The care was solid. The main challenge was communication, as the "language could improve" among some team members. From a practical standpoint, the final bill had no surprises or additional expenses. I stayed in the hospital for more than six nights, and the clinic has remained easy to reach since I left, which is a great support during this recovery phase.
