I had an extremely frustrating experience at the hospital . None of the staff spoke English, which made it nearly impossible to communicate my concerns and questions. To make matters worse, they refused to accept card payments, and instead, they provided third-party payment details, which raised a huge financial red flag for me. To add insult to injury, I was required to pay a deposit of $200 in cash, which I later found out was non-refundable. This is completely unfair and unacceptable. It left me feeling both financially and emotionally distressed, and I wouldn't recommend this hospital to anyone. Clear communication and fair payment practices are fundamental aspects of any healthcare facility, and this hospital failed miserably in both regards. In addition to the communication and payment issues, I must mention that the hospital was located in a completely unsuitable area for tourists. This made the overall experience even more distressing. Visitors to a foreign country expect medical facilities to be accessible and accommodating, but this hospital was situated in a place that made it extremely inconvenient and uncomfortable for travelers. It's an important factor to consider for anyone planning to visit the area and needing medical care.

FAQ

What is LASIK?

LASIK (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis) is a type of the vision correction procedures. The operation is performed to improve the common eye problems (myopia, hyperopia, presbyopia, astigmatism).

The procedure lasts 10 minutes per eye. A patient may return home in a few minutes after the LASIK operation. The vision is stabilized completely from a few days to several weeks.

100% of the patients stop wearing glasses and contact lenses after the LASIK surgery.

LASIK is a combination of microsurgical and excimer laser technologies. During the LASIK correction procedure, the eye doctors use a microkeratome (microsurgical device). The specialists create a flap of corneal tissue and bend it with the microkeratome.

Then the ophthalmologists carry out the laser correction on the inner layers of the cornea. During the operation a new shape of the cornea is created. It begins to refract light rays differently, which focus on the retina and the image becomes clear.
