Services
Operácia sivého zákalu - Bratislava a okolie
We are located in the Petržalka district of Bratislava, which ensures excellent access to services such as cataract surgery, not only for Bratislava but also for surrounding towns such as Dunajská Streda, Trnava, Malacky, and Šamorín. I specialize in modern diagnostics and surgical treatment of eye diseases.
What is the main advantage?
At large private clinics, it’s common practice for one doctor to examine you and another—often a novice or inexperienced one—to perform the surgery. With me, you can be sure that, as your attending physician, I will guide you through the entire process: from the initial examination, through accurate diagnosis, to the surgical procedure itself. I perform all key procedures personally, which eliminates the risk of miscommunication and guarantees the highest level of safety and professionalism.
Services include:
- Cataract surgery: Use of premium, custom-made intraocular lenses. With the possibility of completely eliminating the need for glasses.
- Refractive procedures: Correction of refractive errors for a life without glasses (including ICL lens implantation).
- Surgical treatment of retinal and other eye diseases.
Whether you’re coming from Malacky, Šamorín, or directly from Bratislava or Dunajská Streda, your eyes deserve an experienced surgeon who knows your story from start to finish.
