How Much Does Laser trabeculoplasty Cost in Turkey?

Laser trabeculoplasty in Turkey typically costs from $500 to $600. The final price depends on the specific laser technique, clinic accreditation, and the surgeon's expertise. In the US, similar procedures cost around $2,500 on average. Turkey offers savings of around 80%. Patients usually receive a package that includes the procedure, pre-operative eye examinations, and follow-up consultations.

  • Procedure technique: Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) often costs 15-20% more than Argon Laser Trabeculoplasty (ALT).
  • Medical hubs: Major cities for treatment include Istanbul, Izmir, and Antalya.
  • Premium packages: High-end options range from $1,500 to $2,700 for both eyes.
  • Clinical tier: Prices at JCI-accredited hospitals in Istanbul typically carry a 10-15% premium.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Choosing a high-volume network provides significant value and security. For example, Dunyagoz Eye Hospital Istanbul Etiler treats 66,000 patients annually. Its specialized glaucoma packages can start around $300 per eye. This high volume often translates to lower costs for advanced laser tech. Hospitals like Memorial Şişli offer JCI-accredited care for complex cases. They employ experts like Dr. Ahmet Satici with over 20,000 surgeries. This combination of experience and accreditation ensures top-tier safety at competitive rates.

We've booked an appointment with Dr. İbrahim Gökhan Gülkılık a month before arrival. Yet when we came he was on a vacation and we were offered a replacement. We are very dissatisfied with the organization!

FAQ about Laser trabeculoplasty in Turkey

These FAQs come from real patients seeking medical assistance through Bookimed. Answers are given by experienced medical coordinators and trusted clinic representatives.

What is the level of medicine in Turkey?

Healthcare is the key development sector of the Turkish government. The Turkish authorities are convinced that care for the citizens' health should be an absolute priority of state policy and spend about 77 billion liras for healthcare annually.

As a result, 28,000 medical facilities provide excellent medical care in the country. About 50 centers have certificate of JCI (Joint Commission International), the international improver of healthcare quality and safety across the globe. The index of certificates obtained is the largest. To compare, Israel has 20 JCI-accredited facilities, and Germany — only 10 clinics of this type.

What hotel services are provided here?

In Turkey, hotels of different price ranges and service levels are presented. The level of Turkish hotels is comparable to hotels in Tunisia, Morocco or Egypt. Most tourists choose 4 and 5 star hotels with all-inclusive meals. Such hotels have everything for a comfortable stay: varied food, a large well-groomed territory, animation for children and adults. Some hotels have their own water park, which guests can use for free. Budget travelers can afford to book an economical 3-star hotel with half board or no meals at all.

When is the best time to travel to Turkey?

The main advantage of Turkish resorts is the long beach season. On the Mediterranean coast, it starts in April and lasts until November. In the resorts of the Aegean Sea — from May to October. The most comfortable time for swimming is from mid-June to the end of October. A large influx of tourists is in July-August, when the air temperature is +38°C, and the water warms up to +27°C.

Do I need a visa?

In 2020, the Republic of Turkey has visa-free agreements with 89 states. Some foreigners are exempted from obtaining entry visas, others are required to receive an electronic visa (e-Visa), and still others must apply for a visa at Turkish missions abroad.
