lazer eye treatment

[sonic008]

i have  also looked into this, and although they say from £395 an eye, it always turns out to be over £1000 per eye!!! Maybe it can be done in Fethiye , at one of the private hospitals, with no risk of mrsa or c-dificil ,as in U.K!
The price then, may well be under £400 per eye? does anyone know if it can be done or have had it done in Fethiye?

Optical express wanted £3500 for a certain treatment then came down to £2500 and £1600 depending on the treatment, i asked about the £395 per eye and the reply was it depends on how bad your eyes are, so the £395 treatment will be if you dont need glasses in the first place.

She who must be obeyed went to the eye hospital in Karaçulha to-day & was informed that she had cattaracts on both eyes and she needed an operation & has been advised that laser would be the best move for her.   This would have to be done in Istanbul and the cost per eye is 2500TL.  l think this is a bit excessive, can anyone enlighten me as to whether or not this is the case, also if there is an alternative place nearer to Fethiye?. all input would be gratefully recieved

I too want my eyes lazered, mentioned it to my turkish partner and he said that i wud have to go to Istanbul, so that tells me that there isnt any where nearer, not sure of price etc, but it has to be cheaper than contact lenses and glasses every time,, + its too hot to wear glasses in Summer, which is why i wear the C/L, they are much cheaper in Calis as i looked into it last year, (lol) will def enquire into having laser treatment done though , hate wearing glasses as i have been wearing them since i was 5 - now 38// time for a change..

my wife went to Kartel Guz eye hospital in Fethiye to try & get lazer surgery.  After the eye test they said they could arrange for her to go to istanbul for the operation which would cost her 2,500TL per eye, on top of that would be the flight & both eyes could be done in 40 mins.The total would be nearer 5,500TL.
We went to the Esnaf & she was told it was cattaracts on both eyes & the cost for each eye was 1,000TL & the op done at the Esnaf. The total was 2,050TL The Esnaf did one eye & 3 days later the other eye, the eye ointments were finnished after 4 weeks & she now only wears sunglasses just like anyone else.  Are you sure it is lazer surgery & not cattaract treatment you need?

Did you find it easy to communicate with the eye specialist at the Esnaf? I would like to find out about some treatment for my eye sight.

My wife and I both had vision correction treatment with
Ultralase, UK. I had problems with both sort and long vision,
the wife had problems reading. we are in our second year now
and are over the moon with the results
The cost was £2600 each for both eyes, treatment takes 20 minuts
both eyes,

My daughter had hers done years ago at Optimax in Glasgow, £395 per eye. She has had excellent vision since.

As regards Esnaf, the doctors I know who work there speak excellent english, don't know about them all though

Daffodil, the eye specialist speaks perfect English, he obviously was taught in one of the English speaking countries
