Femto-LASIK is an advanced laser eye surgery that uses femtosecond laser technology to create a precise corneal flap, eliminating the need for a surgical blade. This technique offers greater accuracy and safety compared to traditional LASIK, making it an increasingly popular choice for vision correction in Turkey and worldwide.

Risks and Side Effects

  • Dry eye.
  • Visual blurs.
  • Corneal ectasia.

How much does Femto-LASIK cost in Turkey

The cost of Femto-LASIK in Turkey generally ranges between $1,200 and $1,400 for both eyes, depending on the complexity of the refractive error, the technology used, and the individual characteristics of each patient’s vision.

What is Femto-LASIK?

Femto-LASIK, based on femtosecond laser technology, is the most advanced and safest refractive surgery available today. This cutting-edge technique can effectively correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and even presbyopia, offering a modern alternative to glasses and contact lenses.

LASIK (Laser in Situ Keratomileusis) is based on precise remodeling of the cornea, performed directly within its thickness (corneal stroma). Thanks to the femtosecond laser, this procedure is 100% computer-assisted, guaranteeing optimal precision and long-lasting results.

Very popular in Turkey, Femto-LASIK is attracting more and more patients due to its many advantages: fast recovery, painless procedure and immediate results.

Say goodbye to glasses! Discover Femto-LASIK in Turkey and enjoy clear, unlimited vision.

Femto Lasik eye procedure in Turkey

Femto-LASIK is an advanced refractive surgery technique that offers ultra-precise, safe visual correction. Unlike traditional LASIK, which uses a mechanical blade (microkeratome),this method relies entirely on a femtosecond laser, guaranteeing blade-free cutting for greater safety and more predictable results.

The Femto-LASIK procedure is as follows:

  • Create the corneal flap: A femtosecond laser creates an ultra-thin flap in the cornea without blades or mechanical incisions.
  • Correcting the vision defect: An excimer laser deeply reshapes the cornea to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism.
  • Natural repositioning: The flap is immediately repositioned and adheres in seconds without stitches.

Why Choose Femto-LASIK?

Femto-LASIK allows for completely personalized vision correction, tailored to the unique characteristics of each patient. The ultra-precise femtosecond laser cut preserves more corneal tissue, making the procedure safer and reducing the risk of complications.

In addition to greater precision, Femto-LASIK offers rapid recovery. Most patients see a significant improvement in vision within the first few hours of surgery, with rapid healing and minimal discomfort. The absence of a mechanical blade also reduces the risk of corneal irregularities, ensuring more predictable, longer-lasting results.

Risks and contraindications of Femto-LASIK

Femto-LASIK is one of the most advanced and safe techniques available today for correcting vision defects. However, like any surgical procedure, it does not guarantee a perfect result or a complete absence of complications. That's why a thorough preoperative evaluation is essential. During this consultation, the ophthalmic surgeon will assess your suitability and inform you of any risks or limitations specific to your case.

This procedure is not recommended for patients with certain eye conditions such as keratoconus, corneal degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts, or proliferative diabetic retinopathy. These conditions can affect the results and increase the risk of complications.

Age is also an important factor. Femto-LASIK is not recommended for people under the age of 18 because their eyes are still developing, which can lead to changes in the correction over time.

Your safety comes first! Before any procedure, our specialists in Turkey will perform a comprehensive evaluation to ensure that Femto-LASIK is right for you. Book an appointment today for a personalized evaluation!

Femto-LASIK FAQ

Which ametropias (refractive error) can be corrected with Femto-LASIK and Presbyond laser in Turkey?

The refractive errors that can be treated with Femto-LASIK and the Presbyond laser with our ophthalmology clinics in Turkey are:

  • Myopia (nearsightedness): when a patient cannot see well from a distance
  • Hyperopia (farsightedness): when a patient cannot see well up close
  • Astigmatism: when the patient has blurred vision of the contours of objects. This is due to the presence of several focal points in the eye, due to an abnormality in the cornea
  • Presbyopia: hyperopia due to loss of accommodation, caused by aging of the crystallin
  • Two or more combined ametropias.
What is the difference between Lasik and Femto-LASIK?
The main difference between standard LASIK and Femto-LASIK is how the corneal flap is created. In standard LASIK, the flap is cut with a microkeratome (a small oscillating blade). In Femto-LASIK, it is created with a femtosecond laser (bladeless). The femtosecond laser offers more precise and predictable flap thickness and reduces certain flap-related complications, such as incomplete or irregular flaps and "buttonhole" flaps. Visual outcomes and overall safety are generally comparable between the two methods, and each has its own possible side effects (for example, temporary light sensitivity after femtosecond flaps). Your surgeon will recommend the technique that suits your eyes.
What are the contraindications for this treatment?

LASIK may be contraindicated, or recommended only after careful evaluation, in the following cases. Some are absolute contraindications and others are relative, so the decision belongs to the surgeon after a full examination:

  • Keratoconus or other corneal ectasia, or a suspicion of it.
  • Cornea that is too thin for the planned correction.
  • Unstable vision: a prescription that has changed in the past year, or an age under 18.
  • Glaucoma or unstable intraocular pressure.
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding, because hormonal changes can alter vision.
  • Autoimmune or connective tissue diseases (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, lupus) and immunodeficiency disorders.
  • Uncontrolled diabetes.
  • Severe dry eye syndrome.
  • Certain medications (e.g., isotretinoin, amiodarone) that may affect healing or vision.
  • Other corneal abnormalities (scarring, edema, or extensive neovascularization).
  • Visually significant cataracts and retinal disorders (e.g., retinal detachment, macular degeneration).
  • Active eye infection or inflammation, including active herpes simplex eye disease.
  • A refractive error outside the range that can be treated safely, or very large pupils in some cases.

A complete pre-operative examination is essential to determine whether LASIK or another technique is suitable for you.

What is the success rate of Femto-LASIK and Presbyond laser in Turkey?
Success rates depend on the refractive error treated, the patient's age and eye characteristics, and how success is defined. In published studies of Femto-LASIK, the large majority of patients reach good functional vision without glasses and report high satisfaction, with the best results in low to moderate myopia; a small proportion may need an enhancement or still need glasses for some activities. Presbyond (laser blended vision) aims to reduce dependence on reading glasses in presbyopic patients: most patients adapt well, but it is a compromise, and some may still need glasses for fine close work or in low light, and adaptation can take weeks to months. No result can be guaranteed. A thorough pre-operative examination determines whether you are a good candidate and what outcome you can realistically expect.
