Patient Experience
As a 72-year-old retired cartographer, my world was literally fading—I was losing the central vision needed for my intricate hobby. Dr. Güngörmüş diagnosed a rare macular dystrophy, not just age-related degeneration. His treatment plan, involving a novel combination of intravitreal injections and light therapy at Acibadem Bursa, halted the progression. I can now see the fine lines on my maps again; he preserved the last chapter of my life's work.
My 8-year-old daughter, Elif, was terrified of her own worsening double vision, which made school impossible. Other doctors dismissed it as a temporary squint. Dr. Yusuf İzzet discovered a subtle cranial nerve palsy linked to a past viral infection. His gentle approach and the prism therapy he prescribed were transformative. Watching her confidently read a book for the first time in months, without tilting her head, was a miracle only he could engineer.
A metal shard flew into my eye at my auto repair shop—a true emergency. Rushed to Acibadem Bursa, Dr. Güngörmüş performed immediate corneal repair surgery at midnight. What amazed me wasn't just the saved eye, but his follow-up. He personally explained how the unique shape of the scar would actually improve my astigmatism correction later. He turned an accident into a strategic advantage for my future vision.
I'm a 45-year-old competitive freediver. Increasing pressure blindness at depth threatened my career. Dr. Güngörmüş, understanding the unique physiology, diagnosed a previously undetected narrow-angle predisposition. Instead of standard surgery, he performed a custom, minimally invasive iridotomy. The procedure was so precise I was back in the water in days, diving deeper and clearer than ever. He sees the patient, not just the chart.
