Why Consider Turkey for Your Smart Lens Procedure?

Choosing the right location for any medical procedure is a significant decision, and Turkey has emerged as a prominent destination for individuals seeking high-quality eye care. Several compelling factors contribute to this growing popularity.

Firstly, Turkey boasts a wealth of highly skilled and experienced ophthalmologists. Many Turkish eye surgeons have received international training and are proficient in the latest surgical techniques, including the implantation of advanced technology intraocular lenses, commonly known as smart lenses. AZPO Health partners with a network of reputable clinics that are home to these accomplished professionals.

Secondly, the healthcare infrastructure in Turkey is modern and well-equipped. Hospitals and eye clinics that AZPO Health collaborates with utilize state-of-the-art diagnostic and surgical equipment, ensuring that patients receive care that meets international standards. This commitment to technology allows for precise procedures and optimal patient outcomes. Besides Turkey ranks among the top countries worldwide in terms of the number of JCI-accredited healthcare institutions. As of March 2025, there are 30 JCI-accredited medical facilities in the country.

Thirdly, for many international patients, the cost of medical procedures in Turkey can be more accessible compared to countries in North America or Western Europe (Up to 70% lower in cost). This potential for cost-effectiveness, combined with the high quality of care, makes Turkey an attractive option for those considering smart lens implantation. By connecting with AZPO Health, you can explore options that align with your budget without compromising on quality.

Finally, combining your vision correction procedure with a visit to Turkey can be an appealing prospect. Turkey is a country rich in history, culture, and natural beauty, offering a wide array of experiences for accompanying family members or for your own recovery period. AZPO Health can assist with logistical aspects, making your medical journey smoother and more convenient.

Understanding Smart Lens Technology

Smart lens surgery involves replacing the natural lens of your eye with an artificial lens designed to improve your vision. These advanced intraocular lenses (IOLs) go beyond traditional monofocal lenses, which typically correct vision for only one distance (near, intermediate, or far). Smart lenses aim to provide a broader range of vision, reducing or eliminating the need for glasses for various activities.

There are primarily two main types of smart lenses:

  • Multifocal IOLs: These lenses have multiple focusing zones built into their design, allowing you to see clearly at near, intermediate, and far distances. The brain learns to select the appropriate focal zone depending on what you are looking at. Multifocal IOLs can significantly reduce dependence on reading glasses and bifocals.

  • Toric IOLs: These lenses are designed to correct astigmatism, a common condition where the cornea or lens is irregularly shaped, causing blurred or distorted vision at all distances. Toric IOLs have different powers in different meridians to counteract the irregular shape of the eye, resulting in sharper and clearer vision for individuals with astigmatism. Toric lenses can be combined with multifocal technology to address both astigmatism and the need for vision correction at multiple distances.

The selection of the most suitable type of smart lens depends on your individual visual needs, the health of your eyes, and your lifestyle. The experienced ophthalmologists that AZPO Health can connect you with will conduct a thorough eye examination and discuss your options in detail to determine the best lens for you.

The smart lens implantation procedure is similar to modern cataract surgery. It is typically performed on an outpatient basis and involves a small incision in the eye. The natural lens is removed, and the chosen smart lens is carefully inserted in its place. The procedure is generally quick and well-tolerated, with most patients experiencing significant vision improvement shortly after surgery.

The benefits of smart lens surgery can be substantial. Many individuals achieve clearer vision at various distances, leading to greater independence from glasses and contact lenses. This can enhance participation in hobbies, make everyday tasks easier, and improve overall quality of life.
