myopia
Efekan Koskunseven saved me from myopia of the 8th degree in just 15 minutes by putting in implantable contact lenses (ICL). I am very glad that I met this doctor. There would be more such specialists.

repositioning an incorrectly placed IOL
Excellent doctor, did everything conscientiously, he is my hero. Words are not enough to express my gratitude to him. He repositioned my misplaced intraocular lens from another doctor. During the operation, he was very supportive of me morally. The operation went quickly, although the doctor did everything incredibly carefully and meticulously, while explaining everything in a clear language. I won't get tired of thanking Efekan Koskunseven.

myopia
12 years ago, my father, who suffered from severe myopia, completely lost hope, as none of the doctors he had visited before could help him. Finally, we persuaded him to go to a meeting with Dr. Efekan. After a 21-minute operation, my dad's myopia decreased to 0.75 and 1.25! My father, who had to wear glasses for 40 years, cried from happiness. He threw out 12 shortsighted glasses. Thanks again doctor.
