About the clinic

Diagnostic Expertise
Accurate diagnosis guides effective treatment. The clinic provides a thorough examination.
- Initial Consultation with Examination: This eye check-up typically costs around EUR 200. This fee is deducted if you proceed with surgery.
- Corneal Pachymetry: This key test measures corneal thickness. It is critical for keratoconus assessment and costs around $200.
- Ophthalmoscopy: This exam allows the doctor to view the back of the eye. The price may range from $88 to $141.
These tests help determine the stage of keratoconus.
Advanced Treatment Options
The clinic provides two primary treatment paths. Both aim to halt disease progression and improve vision.
Corneal Cross Linking (CCL)
This is the gold-standard therapy to stop keratoconus. It involves applying riboflavin (Vitamin B2) drops to the cornea. Then UV light is applied to strengthen the corneal fibers. The procedure is a single session with a one-day hospital stay. A package for one eye may cost around $3,280-$5,250. It includes corneal pachymetry and airport transfers.
Hybrid Treatment for Keratoconus
This is a combined, "NO TOUCH" approach. It first uses an excimer laser to correct vision irregularities. Then it applies the cross-linking therapy to stabilize the cornea. This method can help avoid the need for a corneal transplant. A single-session package typically runs between $3,300 and $3,500 USD. It includes the laser correction, vitamin B2 therapy, and UV exposure.

Аlihon Mamatov • Keratoconus Tajikistan

Verified review.
Overall, we are pleased with both the trip and the attitude of the medical staff towards us
I really liked the entire organization of my treatment, starting with the search and offer of a clinic, the organization and coordination of the trip itself. The coordinator from Bookimed, Tatyana, was always in touch and answered all our questions on time. Upon arrival at the airport, we missed (through no fault of our own) the taxi that was supposed to take us to our already reserved hotel. But Tatyana was able to coordinate all the actions so that we easily got to the hotel. Later we called our medical coordinator from the “Veni Vidi” clinic, Olga, who was in touch with us all the time, both during the consultation with Dr. Firat HELVACIOGLU, and during treatment (keratoconus). Olga was ready to translate our conversation (Turkish-Russian languages) with the doctor, but since Doctor Firat speaks excellent English, in which it was more convenient for me to communicate, there was no need for translation. Overall, we are pleased with both the trip and the attitude of the medical staff towards us. We express our gratitude for all this to both Tatyana and Olga. But, as the Doctor informed us, the final results of the treatment will be clear in approximately three months, Alikhon Mamatov
Kind attitude and explanation of Doctor Firat HELVACIOGLU, and coordinator of the Veni Vidi clinic, Olga.
This didn't happen
