RLE - Refractive Lens Exchange Turkey

I decided to have Lens Replacement surgery with Dr. Selim Güldiken after struggling with poor vision for many years. From the very first moment, both Dr. Selim and Batuhan, the coordinator, made me feel at ease. Dr. Selim took the time to explain every detail of the procedure, the risks, and the expected recovery. The day of the surgery, everything was so well-organised that I didn’t feel anxious at all. The procedure itself was quick and completely painless. What impressed me the most was the follow-up care. Batuhan stayed in touch with me every single day during the first week, asking how I felt and reminding me about my eye drops and recovery instructions. Dr. Selim checked my eyes carefully in each follow-up and explained how my vision was improving. Now I can read, work, and drive without glasses for the first time in years. This experience has truly changed my life.

I believe in giving credit where it is due and Risus Clinic truly deserves this support. From the moment I arrived at Istanbul Airport, I felt cared for and comfortable. My doctor is a very friendly and professional doctor, as is the entire Risus Clinic team. I am very careful, but his experience and the way he explained the operation gave me confidence in his ability to carry out the work safely and efficiently. I had Mommy makeover done From the nurses to the hotel staff to the drivers, everyone was professional, friendly, supportive and friendly; They really made me feel at home and I'm grateful. Thank you Risus Clinic for a really nice experience. It's a place I wouldn't hesitate to return to one day and I would recommend it to anyone.

I had Smart Lens treatment and the results are incredible! My vision is crystal clear, and the whole process was smooth and professional. Truly life-changing experience!

I had lens replacement surgery with Associate Professor of ophthalmology Dr Derda Oder at BHT clinic in Istanbul. From the initial contact with him to the end he was very down to earth, transparent, friendly, knowledgeable and compassionate. I had researched and contacted many surgeons. He suggested lenses that would be suitable for each eye and on examining me when I got there, decided one eye needed a different lens which was £150 less. He immediately informed me. He is an excellent surgeon and Hasan, his lovely, capable interpreter was there for me at all times. All the staff are very professional and attentive. The surgery went well and the aftercare was very good. On my last visit, Dr Derda said to contact them at any time if I have any questions or concerns, gave me lifetime lens passports and told me any time I was in Turkey I was to come and have a free assessment. Dr Derda is also very well priced and I’m absolutely thrilled to throw away glasses that I’ve been wearing for many decades. I highly recommend Dr Derda and his team. You can see his work on his Instagram page, including various eye surgeries. He has been involved in many studies in the past and ongoing.

5-Star Review for Dr. Bahadır Akkoç – The Best Ophthalmologist in Antalya I had the absolute pleasure of being treated by Dr. Bahadır Akkoç, and I can confidently say he is the best ophthalmologist in Antalya — and one of the best I’ve ever met! I visited his clinic on the 8th of May for trifocal lens surgery, and from start to finish, the experience was exceptional. Dr. Akkoç provided clear, professional guidance throughout the entire process, answering all my questions and making me feel completely at ease. The surgery itself was smooth and completely painless. Amazingly, just two days after the procedure, I had 100% vision — no pain, no discomfort, just perfect clarity! His expertise, calm demeanor, and genuine care for his patients truly stand out. I’m incredibly grateful for the results and for the outstanding level of care I received. If you're considering eye surgery or need an eye specialist in Antalya, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Bahadır Akkoç. He is, without a doubt, the best of the best!

I recently had an incredible experience with Dr. Osman Tuğrul Güzeldir and the team at Koru Private Hospital. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized by Mehmet Emin Karagöz, who ensured every detail was taken care of – from pick-up to scheduling appointments with the doctors, addressing my concerns, and making sure I was comfortable throughout the process. Dr. Osman Tuğrul Güzeldir was exceptional. He was well-spoken, straightforward, and took the time to clearly explain the procedure and what to expect. His professionalism and skill gave me complete confidence, and I am very happy with the results. The staff and facilities at Koru Private Hospital were equally impressive. The professionalism and care I received exceeded my expectations, making this a truly positive and seamless experience. Highly recommended!

I have toiled with the idea of lens replacement surgery for the past few years. I attended a consultation at a clinic in Glasgow and was quoted £7000 but after reading a lot of poor reviews, I decided against it. I did my research on lens replacement surgery in Antalya and was drawn to Dr Emir Dogan, and seeing as the reviews and price were so affordable, I made contact. The initial contact is through WhatsApp (the same goes for any work you'll get done in Turkey) which made me feel a bit uneasy at first but I knew I was in good hands from the minute I arrived in Antalya. Dr Dogan, appointed an English speaking colleague who drove me to and from the hospital and stayed with me to translate and ensure I was comfortable and understood everything. The hospital is immaculate and modern, I was given a lovely relaxing room to myself which I used pre and post-surgery. The staff were so attentive, one of the girls literally held my hand on my way surgery. Dr Dogan was amazing, I knew I was in good hands from the minute I met him. The surgery was painless and took around 20 minutes, he spoke me through the whole process and constantly reassured me and checked to make sure I was feeling ok throughout the procedure. I remember after the surgery, I stood up and he cleaned my eyes exactly the way you'd expect a caring family member to look after you. This small but attentive gesture made me feel safe. I returned to have my second eye done and the experience was exactly the same, the whole team are so nice. I would recommend Dr Dogan to anyone who is considering lens replacement surgery. My eyesight is pretty much perfect and I love life without my specs.

I contacted the hospital at night requesting a possible surgery the next day so I could still catch my flight the day after. The Doctor and his team were extremely organized, and very detailed and ensured I had a successful surgery. I was able to catch my flight the next day out of Istanbul without any medical issues. I was booked for a free eye check during my next visit to Istanbul to confirm that my eyes were in perfect condition. Special thanks to Abdurahym who made our English-Turkish communication easy and to Prof. Dr. Ahmet Satici for diligently explaining and handling the process efficiently. Your team remains the best!

I booked flights and hotel myself. staying Close To the practice. I was there a little early for my appointment. But not to worry Burak was there immediately to greet me. He took me in the lift to Get my examination Done. which was very thorough. I then went in to see Dr Sitki Eren. who check my eyes for distance. I thought I would then leave and come back the following day. But No having then sign a consent Form. I was taken down for surgery. it all happened so Quickly. I now have new Lenses. and I'm very pleased I've started to see things now without glasses and contact lenses. I now it will take some time to adjust. but im so Happy. and can't Thank Dr Eser and his team. especially Burak who has gone out of his way to look after Me. even driving me back to my hotel after Surgery.
