Vision correction procedures like LASIK have transformed the lives of millions of people worldwide, allowing them to see clearly without glasses or contact lenses. Turkey offers these advanced procedures at a fraction of the cost you would pay in Canada, without compromising on quality or safety.

Turkish eye care facilities are equipped with the latest diagnostic and surgical equipment. The ophthalmologists have extensive experience in procedures like LASIK, cataract surgery, and retinal treatments. Many have received training internationally and are fluent in English.

LASIK is one of the safest and most commonly performed elective procedures. It involves reshaping the cornea using a laser to correct refractive errors. The procedure is quick, typically taking 10-15 minutes per eye, and most patients notice improved vision within 24 hours.

Other vision correction procedures available include PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy), cataract removal with premium lens implants, retinal treatments, and glaucoma management. All procedures are performed in accredited facilities with strict safety protocols.

The cost of LASIK in Turkey is typically 50-60% lower than in Canada. For example, a procedure that might cost $2,000-$3,000 per eye in Canada can often be completed in Turkey for $800-$1,200 per eye, including pre and post-operative care.

Most patients can return to normal activities within a day or two after LASIK, though it's recommended to avoid strenuous activities for a week. Vision continues to stabilize over the following weeks, with full recovery typically taking 3-6 months.
