If you’ve been thinking about getting rid of your glasses or contact lenses for good, LASIK eye surgery in Turkey might be exactly what you’re looking for. Combining advanced laser technology, experienced surgeons, and affordable prices, Turkey has become one of the top destinations in the world for vision correction treatments.
At MOI Health, we work with highly skilled ophthalmologists who specialize in laser eye procedures and provide international patients with a safe, comfortable, and results-driven experience from start to finish.
🔹 What Is LASIK Eye Surgery?
LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is a modern laser procedure designed to correct refractive vision problems such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism.
During the operation, a thin flap is created on the cornea using a femtosecond laser. The underlying corneal tissue is then reshaped with an excimer laser to correct how light enters your eye — resulting in sharper, clearer vision. The procedure takes only about 10–15 minutes per eye and is completely pain-free under local anesthesia.

🔹 Who Is a Good Candidate for LASIK?
Not everyone is suitable for laser eye surgery. The ideal LASIK candidate is someone who:
Is 18 years or older
Has stable vision for at least 12 months
Has a healthy cornea and sufficient corneal thickness
Does not have severe dry eye or other eye diseases
Is not pregnant or breastfeeding
Before the surgery, your doctor will perform a detailed eye examination, including corneal mapping and vision tests, to determine if you are eligible for the procedure.
🔹 Step-by-Step LASIK Procedure
Consultation & Eye TestsYour journey begins with a full eye evaluation by our expert ophthalmologist. Measurements of corneal thickness, pupil size, and refractive error are taken to create your personalized treatment plan.
PreparationBefore the surgery, numbing eye drops are applied. The entire procedure is completed while you are awake but comfortable.
Creating the Corneal FlapA femtosecond laser gently creates a thin flap on the cornea.
Laser ReshapingThe excimer laser precisely reshapes the cornea in seconds. This correction allows light to focus correctly on the retina.
Flap RepositioningThe corneal flap is carefully placed back — no stitches are required. Healing begins immediately.
🔹 Aftercare & Recovery
Most patients notice improved vision within 24 hours. Some may experience mild dryness or sensitivity to light for a few days, which is completely normal.
Aftercare tips:
Use prescribed eye drops regularly (antibiotic and moisturizing drops)
Avoid touching or rubbing your eyes for the first week
Do not swim or wear eye makeup for at least 10 days
Attend your follow-up check-ups as scheduled
You can usually return to work within 2–3 days, depending on your comfort level.
