Treatments
Ophthalmology (Eye Care)
Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) Treatment
Ask price
AMD is a common eye condition and a leading cause of vision loss among people age 50 and older. It causes damage to the macula, a small spot near the center of the retina and the part of the eye needed for sharp, central vision, which lets us see objects that are straight ahead.
Amniotic Membrane Transplant
Ask price
Amniotic membrane is the innermost layer of the placenta consisting of a thick basement membrane and an avascular stromal matrix. It can been used as a graft and as a dressing to facilitate ocular surface reconstruction and to promote healing.
Anti-VEGF Therapy
Ask price
Anti–vascular endothelial growth factor therapy, also known as anti-VEGF therapy or anti-VEGF medication, is the use of medications that block vascular endothelial growth factor. This is done in the treatment of certain cancers and in age-related macular degeneration.
Artificial Cornea Placement (Keratoprosthesis)
Ask price
Artificial cornea is an option for transplant patients who cannot tolerate a human donor cornea.
Astigmatism Correction
Ask price
Astigmatism is an imperfection in the curvature of your eye's cornea or lens. Normally, the cornea and lens are smooth and curved equally in all directions. This helps to focus light rays sharply onto the retina at the back of your eye. When your cornea has an irregular shape, you have corneal astigmatism.
Band Keratopathy Treatment
Ask price
Superficial debridement or lamellar keratectomy in band keratopathy is usually effective in restoring normal vision.

Which eye is straight (and which is misaligned) may switch or alternate.
Trabeculectomy

A trabeculectomy is a surgical procedure to treat glaucoma. Glaucoma occurs when the fluid your eye produces, called aqueous humor, is unable to drain normally. This causes the intraocular pressure (IOP) to increase over time, possibly resulting in vision loss or blindness if left untreated.
Uveitis
Ask price
Uveitis is a broad term for many problems with your eye. What they have in common is eye inflammation and swelling that can destroy eye tissues. That destruction can lead to poor vision or blindness.

From the first contact to the very last examination a year after my ReLEx SMILE operation, I knew I was in good hands.
A friend had recommended the International Vision Centers clinic in Amsterdam after his operation a few months before. After the initial test, I was told that due to my very thin cornea, the chance of retaining a small deviation was quite high. Because of this, I would not be able to have any other forms of treatment and would not be allowed to have another surgery afterwards. Since I already had -5 in my left eye and -4,5 in the right, I still decided that it was worth a try.
The operation itself took about 10 minutes. After it was over, I was sure that wouldn't be allowed to open my eyes until later, and how surprised I was when the doctor told me to do so, and I could actually see! Yes, it was still blurry and foggy, but I guess I'd expected much less.
In the following 24 hours the vision was becoming clearer and clearer. I did lie in a dark room for a couple of hours feeling like there was sand in my eyes (although it was not as bad as I'd expected), but after that I could basically function normally. Already the next day I was amazed how sharp I could see, even though my vision was still only at about 70%.
To cut a long story short, I've had the best outcome possible. Due to luck, or more probably, due to this fantastic new technology and the excellent skill of the eye surgeon, my vision is completely restored. I was also initially warned against halos (light circles around lit objects, especially in the evenings and during the night), but only had in a very light form and not for very long, during first few weeks.
Last but not least, from the beginning to the end of my treatment, all the staff members I've been in contact with (doctors, optometrists, nurses and receptionists) have been friendly and attentive. I've always been well informed and all the appointments were kept. Therefore, I can warmly recommend the International Vision Centers.

I had an absolutely amazing experience at Worldeye. Everyone from receptionist to optometrist to the surgeon is incredibly friendly, helpful and professional. I had my PRK surgery about 3 month ago and while the road of recovery was not always easy - especially in the beginning - the end result is more than I could have wished for and so was the support I received during this time. The procedure was well explained and properly executed. And I was able to come in for check ups as much as I needed (even outside of the scheduled check ups) to feel reassured that my eyes are healing as expected. I could not recommend this clinic enough and I want to thank everyone for their patience and friendliness!
