Frequently asked questions

Cataract and premium lens surgery, laser eye surgery, ICL, eyelid surgery, squint and glaucoma. His university career also covered dry eye, cornea and glaucoma research.

Yes. He reviews your prescription and eye reports before you book and can speak to you by video call, with an interpreter if needed. He then examines you in person in Istanbul before any decision is final.

Keratoconus and other corneal diseases are usually treated by Doç. Dr. Muhammet Derda Özer, who specialises in the cornea. If you have keratoconus, your case goes to Doç. Dr. Özer first; tell us if you are also interested in lens or eyelid surgery.
