Ahmet Satici

33 years of experience • 20000+ treatments performed
Clinic is certified

Cataract surgery at Bilge Hospital in Istanbul, Turkey, costs from $1965. This price includes a monofocal IOL. Prof. Dr. Ahmet Satici performs the surgery, bringing over 19 years of experience to each case.

Cataracts cause blurry vision. They happen when the natural lens inside your eye becomes cloudy. Cataract surgery is a common way to restore clear sight. At Bilge Hospital, surgery usually takes only one day.

What to Expect

The most common method used is phacoemulsification. It’s a gentle technique to remove the cloudy lens. A new, clear lens – called an IOL – is then implanted. You'll have a comprehensive eye exam before surgery. This includes measurements to help choose the right IOL for you.

The hospital stay is just one day. Most patients are discharged on the same day as their surgery. A follow-up appointment is scheduled five days after the procedure to monitor your progress. We recommend staying in Istanbul for around 5 days.

The Package Includes

  • Cataract surgery
  • Pre-op evaluation
  • Monofocal IOL implantation
  • Follow-up consultation
  • Language assistance

Please note that hotel stays and airport transfers are not included in the price. A cash payment is preferred, but card payments are accepted with a 20% surcharge.

Thank you very much and I will recommend this clinic to everyone I know
I was very satisfied with the result of my treatment at the clinic. Everything was done well, starting with the pick-up from the airport, the escort and the very polite attitude towards me. Any of my needs were well met, the translation was clear and the communication with the doctor was very informative. The doctor and his whole team did their job very professionally. I am very impressed and pleased with the outcome. My treatment was very quick, professional and comfortable. Thank you very much and I will recommend this clinic to everyone I know.

I was blown away by how professional and eager to assist the staff were
I had lens replacement and cataract surgery and was blown away by how professional and eager to assist the staff were. It was followed up by Bookimed a week later since Id returned home. They even refunded me some of my original payment even though I hadn't requested it as they found an error on the calculations. I know it's concerning to travel and have operations but from my experience you truly have nothing to worry about. I will definitely look at further surgery via this company and hospital.

And of course, a big thank you to Anastasia, an employee of the Bookimed website ❤️
I am very pleased that I made my choice and trusted the doctor, Professor Abdullah Ozkaya. It was this doctor who inspired confidence at our first meeting, was attentive, and answered all questions clearly and correctly. The clinic did not play any significance for me when choosing. Before that I was in 3 other clinics. But the doctors in those clinics did not inspire confidence in me. I think every person should find their own doctor. And a lot depends on the translator, how correctly he will translate everything. In other clinics, translators were incompetent. And of course, a big thank you to Anastasia, an employee of the Bookimed website ❤️

"Thank you Anastasia from Bookimed
I contacted the clinic via Bookimed.com before arrival and supplied them with my medical reports. They picked me up from the airport and sent me to my hotel. I requested having eye lens laser replacement asap so I can go back home a week after the operation. I arrived at the clinic early morning and was received by Anastasia, a health assistant supporting the patients and helping with the translation. I did all the pre operations test and then met with Dr. Remzi Karadag. He checked my test results and performed more tests, then confirmed my suitability for the operation. I had one eye operated on same day and the other eye the next day. I was issued with eye drops and information on how to look after my eyes during convalescence. A week on, so far so good. I am not using glasses anymore but full restoration of vision will take a month or maybe more. Thank you Anastasia from Bookimed.com and Anastasia and Dr. Remzi from Veni Vedi for the treatment and proffesionality
