Everything was fine
Everything was fine. Bookimed was very kind to find me an appointment pretty short notice in Vienna. The surgent was very professional. The only thing I would have preferred was to pay with a credit card. I had to go to an ATM and pay cash.

I was very pleased with everything at the clinic and the coordinator Mariana Zaiarna. The overall good impression was ruined by mr. Roman.

I liked the doctor
I didn’t like the moment that we were eventually recorded to another doctor. I liked the doctor, but we did not have an examination, that is, only a consultation, in general I did not get exactly what I wanted. Lor did not like it at all, did not receive any new information from him, was not happy with the translator, most of what we said he did not know and did not translate

Fast Facts about Cataract surgery (one eye)

Cataract surgery (one eye)

Cons: Possible vision imbalance if the other eye also has a cataract. May require a second surgery for the other eye if needed.
Effectiveness: 98% success rate in achieving clear vision post-surgery.
Duration: 1-2 hours.
Recovery: 1-2 weeks.
Best for: Individuals with cataracts in one eye or those preferring staged surgeries. Suitable for patients with presbyopia needing vision correction.
