Top 4 LASIK & Vision Correction Specialists in Jabal Amman 2026

When do you need this specialty or procedure?

LASIK & vision correction deals mainly with refractive errors, the common eye conditions in which light does not focus sharply on the retina. The main ones are short-sightedness (myopia), long-sightedness (hyperopia) and astigmatism. The doctors listed here include myopia and astigmatism care among their services. Laser options are one set of choices, and a specialist decides after a full examination whether any of them suits your eyes.

Consider booking an eye assessment if you notice:

• Distance or near vision that is getting blurrier, or needing stronger glasses more often
• Eye strain, tired eyes or headaches after reading or screen work
• Difficulty seeing road signs or driving at night
• Glasses or contact lenses that no longer feel comfortable or clear

Some corneal conditions, such as keratoconus, are also managed by eye specialists. The Sharif Eye Center listing for Dr. Khaled Sharif mentions corneal cross-linking and keratoconus treatment.

Seek urgent care now. Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department if you have:

• Sudden loss of vision in one or both eyes
• A sudden shower of new floaters, flashes of light or a dark curtain across your vision
• Severe eye pain, especially with headache, nausea or vomiting
• A chemical splash, a blow to the eye or an object that has entered the eye
• Worsening pain, redness or vision loss after any eye surgery

How to choose among LASIK & Vision Correction Specialists in Jabal Amman

Start with the match between your reason for visiting and the listed services. All four profiles list LASIK or laser vision correction, but their focus differs. Dr. Khaled Sharif's subspecialties include cornea and cataract, while Dr Mustafa Yousef Mehyar's include pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus. The order of entries reflects how complete each profile is, so it is not a measure of skill.

Practical criteria to weigh:

• Specialty focus: if you have corneal or cataract concerns alongside refractive questions, check the cornea and cataract services. If you are booking for a child, check the pediatric and strabismus services.
• Training: read the qualifications each profile names, such as the Jordanian Board, the Arab Board, Royal College membership or refractive laser surgery fellowships, and compare them with what matters to you. Confirm details directly with the clinic.
• Clinic and hours: three profiles share the Sharif Eye Center clinic in Jabal Amman, with listed hours from Saturday to Thursday, 09:00 to 22:00. Dr Mustafa Mehyar's centre lists Saturday to Wednesday, 09:00 to 18:00, and Thursday, 09:00 to 14:00.
• Who operates: ask whether the doctor who examines you is the one who would perform any surgery.
• A second opinion: many people compare two assessments before deciding on any procedure, and that is a reasonable step here.

What to expect at the first visit

A first consultation usually includes a vision test, an examination of the eye and a discussion of your options. Some clinics also perform corneal imaging, which maps the surface of the cornea. Ask beforehand whether pupil-dilating drops will be used. These can make close vision blurry and increase light sensitivity for several hours, so plan your transport.

Bring:

• Your current glasses and contact lenses, and your prescription if you have it
• A list of medications and any allergies, plus any eye conditions or past eye surgery
• Previous eye reports, scans or test results
• Your questions, written down

Useful questions to ask:

• Which option do you think fits my eyes, and why?
• What are the risks and limits of this option for someone with my prescription?
• What follow-up will I need, and how long before my vision settles?
• What should I avoid after any procedure?

If you wear contact lenses, ask how long before your assessment you should stop wearing them.

Insurance, fees and booking

Before you book, confirm:

• Whether the clinic accepts your health insurance, and which plans it accepts
• The consultation fee, and whether it covers the examination and tests
• Whether surgery, follow-up visits or medication are charged separately
• The cancellation or rescheduling policy

Dr. Khaled Sharif's profile says consultations at the Amman branch are arranged through the centre after the clinic session is confirmed. The other Sharif Eye Center profiles ask you to confirm appointments through the centre, and Dr Mustafa Mehyar's profile asks you to contact the centre to arrange an appointment. Use the contact details shown on each profile when you book.

Getting there

All four profiles list Jabal Amman, Amman as their location. Give the full clinic address from the profile to your taxi or ride-hailing driver. Dr Mustafa Mehyar's centre is near Fourth Circle and is located at Al Yasmin Medical Complex, 12 Ibn Khaldoun Street. If you are travelling from another part of Amman, such as Abdoun, Khalda, Shmeisani or Dabouq, check the travel time on the day of your appointment, because traffic in the city varies.
