Eye Surgery in Turkey Cost (2026 Guide) Turkey is one of the world’s leading destinations for ophthalmic surgery, offering experienced surgeons, modern laser platforms, and significantly lower prices than the UK, Western Europe, or the United States. Typical price ranges in 2026 are: Procedure Typical Cost (Both Eyes) PRK \/ TransPRK (No-Touch) \u20ac900\u20131,600 Femto-LASIK \u20ac1,200\u20132,800 SMILE \/ SMILE Pro \u20ac2,000\u20133,400 EVO ICL (implantable lenses) \u20ac3,500\u20136,500 Refractive Lens Exchange (Premium IOLs) \u20ac3,500\u20137,000+ Cataract surgery (standard lens) \u20ac1,500\u20133,000 Cataract surgery with premium multifocal or EDOF lenses \u20ac3,500\u20137,500+ Why is eye surgery cheaper in Turkey? Lower prices are mainly due to: Lower operating and staffing costs. High patient volume. Strong competition among specialized eye hospitals. All-inclusive packages for international patients. Lower cost does not necessarily mean lower quality. Many Turkish eye surgeons use the same technology found in Europe and North America, including Zeiss VisuMax, SCHWIND, WaveLight, Alcon, and Johnson & Johnson platforms. (DoctorVi) What is usually included? Many clinics include: Comprehensive eye examination Surgery Medications Post-operative check-ups Airport transfers Hotel accommodation (at some clinics) Interpreter services when needed Always ask for a written quotation so you know exactly what is included before making travel arrangements. Don’t choose based on price alone When considering eye surgery abroad, look at: The surgeon’s experience. The technology being used. Whether the clinic performs a full retinal and corneal assessment. What happens if an enhancement or complication occurs. Long-term follow-up arrangements. The cheapest option is not always the best value.
