Lasik Surgery Istanbul

Lasik stands for laser in-situ keratomileusis and is the most common form of refractive laser eye surgery – that is surgery performed to correct refractive errors to reduce dependence on glasses and contact lenses. Lasik is a two-step process using the Intralase method. The first step is the creation of the corneal flap using a specialised laser called the Intralase, and the second step is the vision correction using a second laser called an Excimer laser to smoothly reshape the surface beneath the flap. Once the laser treatment is complete the delicate corneal flap is precisely replaced and seals in place with no stitches required. The flap becomes adherent within a few minutes as the healing begins. Most individuals can return to normal activities within 24 hours. LASIK can be used to correct myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.

Local atraction

The Golden Horn, also known by its modern Turkish name as Haliç is a major urban waterway and the primary inlet of the Bosphorus in Istanbul. This prominent body of water is a horn-shaped estuary that joins Bosphorus Strait at the immediate point where the strait meets the Sea of Marmara. The Golden Horn geographically separates the historic center of Istanbul from the rest of the city, and forms a natural, sheltered harbor that has historically protected Greek, Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman and other maritime trade ships for thousands years.
