Strabismus surgery, often known as eye muscle surgery, involves adjusting the muscles attached to the outside of the eye to achieve proper alignment. This surgical procedure not only helps to improve eye alignment but also facilitates better binocular vision. Thailand, renowned globally for its excellent healthcare system, is a sought-after destination for individuals considering strabismus surgery due to its high-quality medical services and affordable prices.
Please note that the prices provided are estimations and may vary based on various factors. Additionally, these prices do not include flights or accommodation.
All prices are in USD, unless otherwise indicated.
Strabismus surgery is used to correct conditions where the eyes are not properly aligned. This includes conditions like cross-eyes (esotropia), outward-turned eyes (exotropia), or vertical misalignments. The surgery can be performed on children and adults alike and aims to improve the coordination between the eye muscles for better focus and clarity. It's important to note that the surgery is not just cosmetic; it also aids in developing and improving binocular vision.
The process of preparing for strabismus surgery usually starts with a comprehensive eye examination. The eye doctor will evaluate the extent of the eye misalignment and the strength and coordination of your eye muscles. You might be asked to stop taking certain medications and avoid eating or drinking for a certain period before surgery.
During the eye muscle surgery, your surgeon will make a small incision in the tissue covering the eye to reach the eye muscles. These muscles will then be repositioned to correct the alignment. The surgery is often performed under general anesthesia and usually takes between one to two hours.
Recovery after strabismus surgery typically involves a few days of soreness and redness in the eye. Your doctor will likely prescribe antibiotic eye drops or ointment to prevent infection. Regular follow-ups are required to check the healing process, and you will be advised to avoid rubbing your eyes or participating in strenuous activities. Vision improvement is often noticeable immediately, but full recovery may take a few weeks.
The cost for eye muscle surgery in Thailand can range from $2,000 to $4,000. It's important to note that this figure does not include costs for travel and accommodation, and can vary based on factors such as the medical facility, the complexity of your case, and whether additional treatments or procedures are required.

Full recovery from eye muscle surgery usually takes a few weeks, although noticeable improvement in eye alignment may be seen immediately after the surgery.
It is generally safe to fly approximately one week after surgery. However, always consult with your surgeon for personalized advice.
It is recommended to plan for a stay of 1 to 2 weeks in Thailand when undergoing eye muscle surgery. This includes time for preoperative assessments, the procedure, and a postoperative follow-up.
Pam and Konkai Health were absolute rock stars in helping us find a fantastic surgeon for my boyfriend's hip replacement in Thailand. We had previously paid for a service to help us find a doctor and it was just throwing money away. The paid service was slow to respond and only offered us quotes for the most expensive hospitals.
Pam on the other hand was a completely free service and was always quick to reply, patient with all of our questions, and presented a variety of options in our price range. She made the entire process of finding a doctor, setting up video conferences, and scheduling the surgery extremely easy. She continued to help us even after the surgery had taken place with follow up visits and final questions we had before traveling back home. We cannot recommend her highly enough!!! We will definitely be using her again for our next surgical needs.
The service has been great facilitating and making arrangements for my procedure. They are very quick with responses and answering questions.
Many thanks to Konkai. After an online inquiry Konkai guided me to Praram9 orthopedic for a consultation on a hip injury. I had the consultation, clearly a femeral head collapse and needing the hip joint replacement. The beauty was in a half day full consultation, x-ray, ekg, blood work, chest exam ... everything needed to proceed with surgery was done.
This was so professionally and efficiently done, all questions answered, no consultants, no referrals etc., all in house, all guided around the hospital. A friendly caring class act. So I then came back to Konkai to setup for the operation, with the same orthopedic team led by Dr. Peerapong that made the assessment. I returned 2 weeks later, admitted, had the replacement operation stayed 5 days with the hospital team, and quite frankly, it was a privilege to be in their care.
Now after 10 days recovery in Bangkok i am ready to return home. Why Thailand, well in my country New Zealand, you get passed around to specialists, consultants, it all takes time, does not engender trust, and i think the profit motive is primary like the American system. Further, there are less facilities so more waiting for slots. Thailand has a care culture, and the expertise and professionalism with Konkai and Praram9 is superb. They have top quality facilities and capacity to fit your schedule.
If i ever need any major surgery, this will be my first stop. Thanks again
"Whilst searching for information on getting my cataracts done, I found that most websites do not provide sufficient information. I was fortunate enough to find Konkai.Health and connect with Pam.
She and other members of Konkai go far and beyond to do everything possible to give you the best advice.
I highly recommend this company for health related matters whilst you are in Thailand. Real five star assistance."
Outstanding. The most safe, amazing communication these past couple of months with Pam from Konkai health. I asked soooo many questions there must be around 80+ emails from me and every single one has been replied in full. Even now 2 weeks after surgery. Super professional, and the surgeon Dr Thawatchai Boonpadhanapong, at Yanhee Hospital that Pam recommended to me for a breast implant removal, were just incredible. No money deposits asked for…just pure care.
The service and systems at Yanhee were out the gate. I am so glad I travelled all that way and didn’t do it in New Zealand as I don’t think it would’ve been as good haha. I was so looked after by the amazing nurses, anaesthetist, Dr Thawatchai and my interpreter Mr Wing. It’s overwhelming looking for the right fit and if it wasn’t for Konkai Health and Pam I wouldn’t be feeling as happy as I am now 2 weeks after my surgery. I cannot thank you enough for what feels like a life transformation :)
I came to Thailand from America for a liposuction in last week. In a Google search, back in May, I came across Konkai Health and decided to reach out to them.For my surgery Pam, recommended Rattinan Clinic out of Bangkok. Pam was able to connect me with the clinic to set up a consultation. The process was very easy.I recommend Konkai Health and Rattinan Clinic. Both are 10/10
"I live in New Zealand, and my partner and I went on a holiday in Laos (Asia). I became sick and needed an emergency stomach operation. I reached out to this company, and they have been nothing but helpful.
They helped us with translating in Laos; they organised a taxi driver who was waiting for us at arrival and drove us to the hospital, where they organised a scan for me. I only needed to show my passport and an email when I arrived. I was already in the system for the appointment.
Everything went really smoothly. The company is professional and reliable, and the staff is super friendly too. I would highly recommend this company. I am grateful for the great service this company offered when I was in need."
"I can say that the whole medical journey was very pleasant. The information given before the actual start was good. The meeting and intake with the doctor was clear.
Konkai Health was always responding fast and helpful if I came up with questions. And the actual surgery had a good outcome also. Now I just ended my last check-up, and I am very delighted how everything went."
Pam from Konkai just made the right match for my plastic surgery, not only did it make me safe time, but the chosen doctor was just exceeding my expectations! Thank you so muxh 🙏🏼
I highly recommend their expertise and thankful for having been a patient at Yanhee hospital! …
I am recommended by one of my friends in Bangkok that eye surgery at LASIK hospital is excellently and exceptionally done. With his recommendation, I approached Konkai who were quick to respond to my questions and give appointment date.
