Eye Treatments: LASIK & Laser Vision Correction
Correcting myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism with LASIK and other laser methods; the process, eligibility and choosing a clinic.

Laser eye treatments are effective at reducing dependence on glasses and lenses. Turkey stands out with modern equipment and experience in this field.
Methods
- LASIK: reshaping the cornea to correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism.
- No-touch / surface ablation: alternatives for patients with thin corneas.
- Cataract surgery: replacing the clouded lens with an artificial one.
Who qualifies?
Eligibility depends on your prescription, corneal thickness and overall eye health. A detailed exam is essential.
The process
The procedure usually takes minutes and same-day discharge is possible. Vision improves noticeably within a few days; full stabilization may take weeks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the procedure painful?
Anesthetic drops mean no pain; brief mild discomfort may follow.
Are the results permanent?
LASIK results are usually permanent; age-related changes are assessed separately.
