How Much Does Cataract surgery with IOL replacement Cost in İzmir?
Cataract surgery with IOL replacement in İzmir typically costs from $900 depending on the lens technology and surgical technique. In the US, similar procedures cost around $5,300 on average. Patients save around 62% compared to the US. Most packages in İzmir include pre-operative biometry, local anesthesia, the intraocular lens, and post-operative follow-up exams.
- Monofocal IOL: Typically the most affordable option for clearing distance vision.
- Multifocal or trifocal IOL: Includes premium "smart lenses" that provide vision at several distances.
- Toric IOL: Used for patients needing astigmatism correction alongside cataract removal.
- Laser-assisted technology: Often adds 15-25% to the base cost of traditional manual surgery.
Bookimed Expert Insight: İzmir clinics often provide a calmer, more personalized patient journey compared to high-volume Istanbul hubs. Medicalpoint International Hospital and Dunyagoz Eye Hospital Izmır highlight this with JCI accreditation and specialized ophthalmology departments. Investing in doctors like Erkan Unsal or Deniz Kilic makes sense, as they each bring over 10,000 surgical cases of experience to complex premium lens fittings.

It’s so world changing to be able to see clearly again!
Overall, the experience was very much worth. It’s so world changing to be able to see clearly again! The cost was so much better than in the US, and I was also able to get the lens I wanted that is not available in the US yet. Other than a false assumption about where my hotel was located, and the drivers having difficulty finding me, the only perimeter went pretty smoothly. I’m happy with the outcome. I would only suggest that there be at least one nurse or medical staff besides the doctor who speaks English. Many more paranoid, or less traveled Americans would have a hard time going through that honestly. I feel the service is very worth iit overall, those are just some recommendations to make the service excellent and a no-brainer for Americans who need medical procedures.

I recommend it to everyone!
Everything was great! Accessible and high quality counselling from the coordinator Tatiana at Bookmed!
Tatiana put me in touch with the interpreter Olga from Special Veni Vidi Eye Health Centre Veni Vidi Göz Caddebostan
On the first day I had a quality examination and on the same day I had a lens replacement surgery in one eye.
The operation was performed by a wonderful doctor with many years of experience, a professional in her field - Sultan Kaya Unsal.
The operation lasted about 6 minutes (for the 1st eye), the 2nd eye was done the next day in 4 minutes 32 seconds!
The process was painless and stress free.
Today, more than a week after the operation, I can see perfectly, read and write small print! No discomfort ! The recovery process is ongoing!
Thank you very much for your labour and competence!
I recommend it to everyone!
Everything is very high level!
Loved it all!

What really stood out was how my doctor took the time to show me what to expect with each lens type after testing my eyes thoroughly, which helped me confidently choose the multifocal option
What really stood out was how my doctor took the time to show me what to expect with each lens type after testing my eyes thoroughly, which helped me confidently choose the multifocal option. He performed the surgery personally on both of my eyes the same day. My recovery is going about as expected, and the clinic provided a clear aftercare guide. Just be prepared for the other costs. Of course, I had to pay for my flight, a two-week hotel stay, and also a required $150 medical insurance policy on top of the clinic's price.
