I had an extremely frustrating experience at the hospital . None of the staff spoke English, which made it nearly impossible to communicate my concerns and questions. To make matters worse, they refused to accept card payments, and instead, they provided third-party payment details, which raised a huge financial red flag for me. To add insult to injury, I was required to pay a deposit of $200 in cash, which I later found out was non-refundable. This is completely unfair and unacceptable. It left me feeling both financially and emotionally distressed, and I wouldn't recommend this hospital to anyone. Clear communication and fair payment practices are fundamental aspects of any healthcare facility, and this hospital failed miserably in both regards. In addition to the communication and payment issues, I must mention that the hospital was located in a completely unsuitable area for tourists. This made the overall experience even more distressing. Visitors to a foreign country expect medical facilities to be accessible and accommodating, but this hospital was situated in a place that made it extremely inconvenient and uncomfortable for travelers. It's an important factor to consider for anyone planning to visit the area and needing medical care. Read more less

I planned the trip on my own, buying into advertising, and specially came from another country. There were few patients, but the service was very slow; I waited for an hour at each office. I went in at 10 am, left at 4:30 pm, and had an appointment with the doctors in advance + I adjusted to their schedule due to their travel. The service is disgusting, the staff is indifferent and I had to raise my voice several times to get attention. I paid over $1000 to wait for hours (!) and left with mixed feelings

Everything went at the highest level. In the beginning, there were inconsistencies in the organization, which were immediately resolved for the benefit of the client, that is, me. Doctor of the aphthalmologist Belma Karini, I can only recommend, golden pens! The result of the operation exceeded all expectations not only of mine, but also of the doctor. Special thanks to the translator Dinara, she will not forget anything, she will organize everything, everything is clear and harmonious with her. The clinic is new, the wards are very clean and comfortable. I would say the Chambers are more like a luxury hotel suite. Everything in the shower glistens with towels, shampoos, etc. I RECOMMEND UNIFORMALLY !!!

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 ❤️

FAQ about LASIK eye surgery in Turkey

  1. What is the cost of LASIK eye surgery in Turkey?
    The cost of LASIK eye surgery in Turkey varies depending on the clinic and the type of procedure you choose. Generally, the cost of a basic LASIK procedure starts from $1,000 and can go up to $3,000. Some clinics may offer packages that include additional tests and follow-up visits for a higher price.
  2. What is the average healing time for eye surgery in Turkey?
    The average healing time for LASIK eye surgery in Turkey is typically three to four weeks. During this time, your vision will improve gradually and you may experience some discomfort or sensitivity to light. Your doctor will advise you on how to care for your eyes during the healing period.
  3. What is the success rate in Turkey?
    The success rate of LASIK eye surgery in Turkey is very high, with most patients achieving 20/20 vision or better. The success rate depends on the type of procedure you choose and the doctor's experience performing the surgery. Generally, the success rate is 95-98% for those with mild to moderate levels of nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
  4. What qualifications should I look for in an eye surgeon in Turkey?
    When selecting an eye surgeon in Turkey, it is vital to ensure they are qualified and experienced in LASIK eye surgery. The doctor should be board certified and have a good record of providing successful outcomes. You should also ask about the types of technology they use and the protocols they follow to ensure patient safety.
  5. What are the risks associated with surgery?
    Although LASIK eye surgery is generally a safe procedure, some risks are associated with it. These include dry eyes, halos or glare around lights, and under- or over-correction of vision. In rare cases, complications such as infection, scarring, and retina damage can occur. It is important to discuss the risks and possible complications with your doctor before undergoing the procedure.
  6. What type of aftercare is required following LASIK eye surgery in Turkey?
    Aftercare is an essential part of the LASIK eye surgery process in Turkey. Your doctor will provide detailed instructions on how to care for your eyes following the procedure. This may include taking antibiotics and eye drops to reduce the risk of infection, and wearing sunglasses to protect your eyes from the sun. Additionally, your doctor may recommend regular follow-up visits to monitor your progress.
  7. How long do the results last?
    The results of LASIK eye surgery in Turkey typically last a lifetime. However, this can vary depending on your age, health, and lifestyle. If you experience any changes in your vision or any other symptoms, it is important to consult your doctor right away.
  8. What is the recovery time?
    The recovery time for LASIK eye surgery in Turkey is typically quick. Most patients experience improved vision within a day or two and can resume normal activities within a few days. However, it is important to follow your doctor’s instructions for aftercare and follow-up visits to ensure the best results.
  9. Are there any alternatives to LASIK in Turkey?
    There are other options for correcting vision in Turkey such as PRK, LASEK, and ICL. These procedures are similar to LASIK but may better suit specific individuals. Your doctor can advise you on which procedure is best for you.
  10. What is the age limit for LASIK eye surgery in Turkey?
    The age limit for LASIK eye surgery in Turkey is typically 18 years old, although some clinics may accept younger patients. Generally, the best candidates are those between 18 and 40 who have had a stable vision for at least one year. It is essential to discuss your eligibility with your doctor before undergoing the procedure.
