Eye Diseases & Treatments

Eyes are our window to the world, so good vision is critical to our happiness and well-being. Istanbul Med Assist mediates treatments for several eye diseases that can lead to vision loss, such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, and cataracts. We also provide treatments for refractive errors, the most common vision disorders. These cause blurred vision due to the eye’s shape or aging effects, including myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. Refractive errors can be corrected by wearing eyeglasses or contact lenses or by refractive surgery, whereas vision loss cannot be restored. Laser procedures can also help correct refractive errors. LASIK (laser in-situ keratomileusis) is the most popular laser procedure. LASIK is an outpatient procedure and is blade-free. It works by permanently changing the shape of the cornea so that light focuses more clearly on your retina.

Istanbul Med Assist works with medically accredited partner hospitals and clinics with Turkey’s leading experts in ophthalmology, pediatric ophthalmology, oculoplastic surgery, and laser eye surgery. Our oculoplastic surgeons perform cosmetic and reconstructive surgery. We also mediate laser surgery in outpatient settings, which takes only 15 minutes for both eyes. We are confident that we can meet all your eye care needs.
