Technology Matters
Look for clinics with wavefront-guided or topography-guided LASIK. Germany and Turkey lead in adopting latest femtosecond laser technology.
Surgeon Experience
Choose surgeons who have performed 5,000+ procedures. Many Turkish ophthalmologists trained in Germany or the US.
Post-Op Care
Confirm follow-up schedule. Most clinics require a 1-day and 1-week check. You can do 1-month check with a local optometrist.
