FAQ
Epiretinal Membrane in Istanbul — common questions
Where do most international patients go for Epiretinal Membrane in Turkey?
The most common destinations are tier-1 metro hospitals (Delhi NCR, Istanbul, Bangkok, Singapore, etc.) where the relevant specialty volumes are highest. Surgeon volume — not hospital prestige — is one of the strongest predictors of outcomes for Epiretinal Membrane, so ask each hospital for its case volume.
What does Epiretinal Membrane treatment typically cost in Turkey?
Across the 4 accredited hospitals we list, packaged costs start from about $4,450 and run up to $5,370 depending on procedure choice, complexity, and implant or device tier. We never publish a final number — your case manager itemises every line before you commit.
How long should I plan to stay in Turkey for treatment?
Most Epiretinal Membrane cases need around 14–14 days in-country covering pre-op workup, the procedure itself, and the first follow-up before flying home. Plan an extra week buffer for travel + visa logistics.
Should I get a second opinion before booking?
Yes — and it's free. A second opinion can confirm the plan or suggest a different procedure. Share your imaging and current plan; a specialist returns a written opinion in 5–10 working days, with no obligation to travel.
Is Turkey accredited for international medical patients?
Each hospital page shows the accreditations we hold on record (JCI, NABH, ISO 9001, KTQ, HA-Thailand or the local ministry licence). Check the issuing body's directory, or ask your coordinator to confirm current status, before you book.
