Cataract Treatment in MML Medical Center
About the clinic
MML Medical Center provides cataract diagnosis and treatment in Warsaw, Poland. Phacoemulsification may cost around $1,300 with a basic lens or $2,500 with a premium lens. The clinic performs this surgery with local drop anesthesia and does not require an overnight stay.
Eye tests at MML
An ophthalmologist can assess cataracts and check eye health using these diagnostic tests:
- Eye consultation and examination: Includes assessment by an ophthalmologist.
- Computerized refraction: Measures how the eye focuses light.
- Visual acuity test: Checks near and distance vision.
- Applanation tonometry: Measures pressure inside the eye.
- Slit-lamp examination: Checks the front part of the eye.
- Fundus examination: Uses Volk 90D or 78D lenses to view the back of the eye.
- OCT scan: Uses optical coherence tomography to image eye structures.
Cataract procedures at MML
- Phacoemulsification: Ultrasound breaks up the cloudy natural lens, and the fragments are removed. A foldable intraocular lens is placed inside the remaining lens capsule. Its optical features are selected for the patient. The procedure takes 10–20 minutes through an incision of about 2.5 mm. The incision seals under pressure inside the eye. Patients can usually go home 1–2 hours later. Surgery is also available through Poland’s National Health Fund (NFZ).
- Posterior laser capsulotomy: This short laser procedure treats secondary cataract, which can develop when the capsule behind the implanted lens becomes cloudy. The laser makes an opening in the capsule so light can pass through.
MML is a multi-specialty day-surgery center with 2 operating rooms, 11 hospital beds, and 9 diagnostic-treatment rooms. Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss the available cataract care.

Medical Specialties and Surgical Expertise
The clinic focuses on procedure-based surgical specialties and diagnostics. Its surgical team includes 15 doctors working across several departments.
Otorhinolaryngology (ENT)
ENT specialists treat diseases of the ears, nose, throat, and larynx. The department leads in functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) performed through the nostrils. Dr. Michał Michalik, a pioneer in the field, introduced balloon sinuplasty to the clinic.
For tonsil or adenoid issues, the clinic uses several methods:
- Diode laser for precise tissue reduction
- Celon bipolar RFITT thermoablation for snoring and apnea
- Harmonic scalpel to minimize bleeding during surgery
The clinic also offers balloon sinuplasty (Balonoplastyka). This method uses flexible catheters to clear blocked sinuses without incisions. Surgeons also correct deviated septums and remove polyps causing nasal congestion.
Ophthalmology and Diagnostics
The ophthalmology department performs phacoemulsification for cataract treatment. Ultrasound breaks up the cloudy lens, which is then replaced with an intraocular implant. If cloudiness develops after surgery, posterior laser capsulotomy can restore clear vision.
Diagnostic tests support these treatments:
- Gonioscopy for glaucoma assessment
- Videonystagmography for balance disorders
- Tonal and impedance audiometry for hearing loss
- Computerized rhinomanometry for nasal airway testing
Specialists also manage chronic sinusitis linked to allergies. Testing includes skin prick tests and IgE antibody screenings.
Breast Surgery and Aesthetic Medicine
The breast surgery program offers oncoplastic tumor removal and risk-reducing mastectomies. Reconstruction options include implants, expanders, or LD flaps using tissue from the back. Surgeons also restore breast symmetry and reconstruct the nipple-areola complex.
Aesthetic medicine focuses on non-surgical facial rejuvenation. Dr. Marcin Repetowski performs botulinum therapy and wrinkle filling. These treatments target forehead lines and crow's feet.
Advanced Diagnostic Laboratory
The center runs a full-profile laboratory to support surgical planning. This means patients get accurate pre-treatment assessments in one location. Services include:
- Microbiological and bacteriological testing
- Histopathological analysis of tissue samples
- Tumor marker screenings
- Advanced sinus microbiome studies using nanopore sequencing
The clinic also participates in research to improve sinus treatment outcomes.
Services for International Patients
MML Medical Center operates within the Medicover network. This partnership enables collaboration with Medicover Hospital in Warsaw Wilanów for expanded care. Patients who need overnight medical supervision can stay at the clinic's ward. Staff monitor recovery and confirm readiness before discharge. The center's personnel speak Polish and English.
