Verified review.

Vision diagnostics for 120 €, which can be done free of charge in almost any optician. The offered price for the operation is 2 times higher than the price in February. The feeling that everyone needs to sell treatment and as expensive as possible.

Qualifications

Prof. Dr. Aykan emphasizes the importance of regular eye examinations for early detection of glaucoma, a condition that can progress without symptoms and cause irreversible damage. He utilizes multidiode laser treatments to effectively manage glaucoma, minimizing infection risks and eliminating the need for direct eye intervention, which is particularly advantageous for patients who cannot use medication.
