Why patients travel to our Cairo clinic for ICRS

Our Cairo clinic performs ICRS using the same instruments and protocols you'd find in London, Berlin, or Boston, at a fraction of the price. Patients travel from across Egypt, the Gulf, and increasingly from Europe for the combination of senior-consultant care, transparent USD pricing, and a clinic that handles international logistics end-to-end.

ICRS in Cairo, frequently asked

How long should I plan to be in Cairo for ICRS?
For most procedures, plan a minimum of 4 days in Cairo. Day 1 is full pre-operative evaluation, surgery is on day 2 (if you're a candidate), and follow-ups span the remaining days. We coordinate longer stays for transplant patients who need close early monitoring.
Is ICRS in Cairo the same standard as London or Berlin?
Yes, same surgical technique, same equipment manufacturers, same eye-bank tissue sources. Dr. Ahmed Shaarawy is AAO-published and trained at Devers Eye Institute, Portland, OR (a leading US cornea center). The cost difference reflects local operating costs in Egypt, not clinical standards.
What languages does the clinic team speak?
Arabic, English, and basic French / Italian for European patients. Surgical consent forms, medical reports, and post-op instructions are issued in English on request.
Will my home insurance cover the procedure?
Many international private insurance plans cover at least part of the cost. We issue detailed clinical reports in English (procedure code, diagnosis code, surgical notes) suitable for insurance reimbursement claims after your trip.
How do I send my topography or OCT before traveling?
Email scans (PDF or JPG) to ask@cornea.clinic, or attach them via WhatsApp to +20 111 118 2081. Dr. Shaarawy reviews international cases personally and replies within 24 hours with a treatment plan and travel logistics.
