The Turkish Advantage: Quality, Affordability, and Expertise
The surge in medical tourists choosing Turkey for eye care is no coincidence. The country has cultivated an environment of excellence built on several key pillars.
- World-Class Medical Professionals: Turkish ophthalmologists undergo rigorous training in highly competitive medical schools. Many pursue further specialization and fellowships in Europe and the United States, bringing back a wealth of international experience. Their high patient volume ensures a level of practical expertise that is among the best in the world.
- State-of-the-Art Facilities: Turkey is home to a vast network of JCI (Joint Commission International) accredited hospitals. These eye clinics are equipped with the latest diagnostic and surgical technologies, including advanced femtosecond and excimer lasers, 3D imaging systems, and cutting-edge intraocular lenses (IOLs).
- Significant Cost Savings: The cost of eye treatments in Turkey can be 50-70% lower than in the UK, Europe, or North America. This affordability is due to lower operational costs and favorable exchange rates, not a compromise on quality. You receive premium care without the premium price tag.
- A Unique Travel Experience: Combine your treatment with an unforgettable trip. Recover in the comfort of a luxury hotel in a city like Istanbul, rich with culture, history, and renowned Turkish hospitality. Fibohealth ensures your medical journey feels like a restorative holiday.
Our Eye Treatments Services at Fibohealth
Fibohealth provides access to a comprehensive portfolio of eye care services, connecting you with specialist surgeons for a wide range of conditions. Our most sought-after procedures include:
TransPRK (Transepithelial Photorefractive Keratectomy)
TransPRK is a modern, 'no-touch' laser eye surgery technique. It's an excellent alternative to LASIK, especially for patients with thinner corneas or those involved in contact sports. The procedure reshapes the cornea directly on the surface without creating a flap, offering a high degree of safety and excellent visual outcomes.
Retinal Disorders Treatment
Our network of hospitals specializes in diagnosing and treating complex conditions affecting the retina, such as diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and retinal detachment. Treatments range from intravitreal injections and laser photocoagulation to advanced vitreoretinal surgery, aiming to preserve and restore sight.
Lasik Eye Surgery
LASIK is the world's most popular laser vision correction procedure. Ideal candidates are those with myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), or astigmatism. A thin flap is created on the cornea, which is then reshaped by an excimer laser to correct the refractive error, providing clear vision often within 24 hours.
Color Blindness Treatment
While there is no definitive cure for congenital color blindness, we offer advanced solutions to manage the condition. This includes specialized diagnostic testing and prescription of innovative corrective lenses and glasses (like EnChroma) that enhance color perception and differentiation, dramatically improving quality of life.
Laser Trabeculoplasty
This is a minimally invasive laser procedure for patients with open-angle glaucoma. The laser targets the eye's drainage system (the trabecular meshwork) to improve the outflow of fluid, thereby lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) and preventing damage to the optic nerve. It's a quick, safe, and effective treatment.
Strabismus Surgery
Also known as surgery to correct 'crossed eyes,' this procedure adjusts the eye muscles to improve alignment. It can be performed on both children and adults to restore normal binocular vision, improve depth perception, and enhance cosmetic appearance. Turkish surgeons are highly experienced in these delicate procedures.
Glaucoma Treatment
We facilitate comprehensive glaucoma management, a condition that can lead to irreversible blindness if untreated. Our specialists offer a full spectrum of care, from medication and laser therapies like Trabeculoplasty to surgical interventions such as trabeculectomy or the implantation of drainage devices (shunts).
Cataract Surgery in Turkey
This common and highly successful procedure involves removing the eye's cloudy natural lens (the cataract) and replacing it with a sophisticated artificial intraocular lens (IOL). We offer a range of premium IOLs, including multifocal and toric lenses, to correct other vision issues simultaneously, often eliminating the need for glasses post-surgery.
