Laser Eye Surgery (LASIK)

Laser eye surgery (LASIK) from €1,390

LASIK remains the most requested laser vision correction procedure worldwide, reshaping the cornea under a thin protective flap — iLASIK / wavefront-guided PRK for both eyes starts from €1,390 at our partner ophthalmology hospitals across Turkey.

Package details

• Corneal mapping and wavefront aberrometry
• iLASIK or wavefront-guided PRK, both eyes
• Surgeon and hospital fees
• Post-operative check-ups and medication

What "wavefront-guided" actually adds

Standard LASIK corrects your prescription; wavefront-guided LASIK also maps and corrects smaller, irregular distortions in your cornea that a standard glasses prescription doesn't capture — patients often report sharper contrast and fewer night-vision glare issues as a result, compared with older, non-wavefront techniques.

LASIK or PRK — the same laser, a different first step

Both use the same excimer laser to reshape the cornea; the difference is how the surface is accessed. LASIK creates a thin corneal flap that's lifted and repositioned after treatment, giving faster visual recovery. PRK removes the surface layer instead of cutting a flap, which takes longer to heal but avoids any flap-related risk — often preferred for thinner corneas or certain professions where flap trauma is a concern. MedAgent coordinates your corneal mapping appointment, procedure and stay with a laser eye center in Turkey.

Steps to book

1. Send your current prescription and any contact lens details
2. Get a quote once corneal thickness confirms LASIK or PRK suitability
3. Travel to Turkey for pre-op mapping and the procedure
4. Stay for the next-day check before flying home

Questions patients ask

Do I have to stop wearing contact lenses before the consultation? Yes — soft lenses for about a week, rigid lenses longer, since lenses temporarily change corneal shape and can skew the measurements.

Can LASIK correct both short and long sight in the same eye? No, but it can correct different prescriptions in each eye if needed, and astigmatism alongside either.

What if my prescription changes again later? A touch-up procedure is possible years later in eyes with enough remaining corneal thickness, assessed at the time.
