LASIK Eye Surgery in Turkey
LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is the most popular vision correction surgery worldwide. Turkey offers cutting-edge LASIK technology with experienced ophthalmologists at a fraction of Western prices.
How LASIK Works
A femtosecond laser creates a thin flap in the cornea. An excimer laser then reshapes the underlying corneal tissue to correct refractive errors. The flap is repositioned and heals naturally without stitches.
Conditions Treated
- Myopia (nearsightedness) up to -12 dioptres
- Hyperopia (farsightedness) up to +6 dioptres
- Astigmatism up to 6 dioptres
