Ptosis

I had ptosis surgery with Dr. Zehra Karagac in November and was absolutely delighted! Already at the first consultation she quickly understood what was wrong, explained everything calmly and immediately gave me confidence. The surgery went perfectly, the result exceeded expectations, and the care and attention from the doctor was at the highest level. I was able to make an appointment quickly, without any red tape. I am very glad that I came to her - a true professional and just a kind-hearted person. Thank you very much to the doctor and her whole team!

Eyelid surgery

For a year I had been putting off eyelid surgery as I couldn't trust anyone. But already at my first consultation with Dr. Zehra I felt confident due to her friendliness, positivity and professionalism. The surgery took place this morning under local anesthesia and I am very pleased.

Pterygium (overgrowth of the conjunctiva)

My mom and dad were patients of Dr. Zehra Karagac. They both had a mass on their eyelids. They successfully underwent surgery and now the treatment is still ongoing. The doctor is very attentive and explains everything in detail.
