How we chose this list

Every matching doctor profile in this country was scored out of 100 for how complete and checkable its published information is, and the highest scores appear here in order. Featured placement does not change a profile's score, and the score does not measure treatment quality or outcomes — it tells you how much you can check before you call.

  • Profile verified by the platform15
  • Approved reviews (number and average)20
  • Published years of experience (up to 25)15
  • Published qualifications10
  • Written professional biography8

Ties are broken by the number of approved reviews, then published years of experience. Confirm the service, branch, appointment, fees and insurance coverage with the practice before visiting.

When do you need this specialty or procedure?

Vitreoretinal surgery deals with the retina, the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye, and the vitreous, the clear gel that fills the space in front of it. Surgeons in this field treat conditions such as retinal detachment, retinal holes and complications of diabetic eye disease. Some problems may be treated with a procedure called vitrectomy, which removes the vitreous gel. Several profiles on this page also list cataract surgery, corneal care or eyelid surgery. Those are different fields, so match the service to your own problem rather than to the title alone.

Book a visit without delay if you notice new floaters, a sudden rise in the number of floaters, flashes of light, blurred or distorted central vision, or a dark patch in your side vision. People with diabetes should have regular retinal checks, as major health guidance recommends, even when their vision seems normal. This general information is not a diagnosis, and only an eye examination can show what is happening.

Call 911 or go straight to the nearest emergency department if you have sudden loss of vision in one eye, a shadow or curtain spreading across your view, a sudden shower of floaters with flashes, an injury to the eye, or severe eye pain with nausea or vomiting. These signs can mean the retina is at risk, and prompt assessment matters.

How to choose among the doctors here

Start with the services, not the title. A profile listing vitrectomy, retinal detachment care and laser treatment of retinal holes matches a different need from one focused on cataract surgery or eyelid procedures. Read the specialties and the published services together, and check whether the doctor covers the condition you have.

Next, compare location and hours. The seven profiles are spread across Amman, Aqaba and Karak, so travel time and the days you can attend often decide the choice. Confirmed hours vary widely between clinics, so check the day you plan to go rather than assuming the same schedule every week.

Look at the training described. Some profiles name university degrees, fellowships or hospital training, and some name professional boards. Where a record gives these details, bring them up in your consultation and ask how they relate to your case. Where a record is brief, ask the clinic to explain the doctor's experience with your type of problem.

Understand the order too. The list is ranked by how complete each published profile is, using items such as platform verification, approved reviews, years of experience, qualifications, biography, services, insurers, confirmed hours, consultation fee and map location. This measures how much checkable information a profile publishes. It does not measure clinical quality or outcomes. No list can tell you which of the best vitreoretinal surgery specialists in Jordan will suit you, so treat this page as a shortlist to verify.

What to expect at the first visit

Expect a full eye examination. The doctor may place drops to widen the pupil so the retina can be examined. These drops can blur near vision and make bright light uncomfortable for a few hours. Arrange a companion or transport home if you can, and do not plan to drive straight afterwards.

Bring your current medicines and any eye drops, earlier eye reports, scans or lens prescriptions, and the names of any conditions you have, especially diabetes or high blood pressure. Write your questions down in advance. Useful ones include: what is most likely causing my symptoms; which tests are needed; whether surgery is one option and what the alternatives are; what recovery involves, including any limits on activity; how many follow-up visits to expect; and who will carry out any procedure and where it will take place.

Recovery after eye surgery varies by procedure. Ask the surgeon to explain positioning, eye drops, activity limits and warning signs in writing before you leave.

Insurance, fees and booking

Before you book, ask whether the clinic accepts your health insurance and what your policy covers for consultations, tests and surgery. Do not assume your policy applies. Confirm directly with reception and ask for any approval paperwork you will need.

Where a profile publishes a consultation fee, it is shown on the profile itself. Dr. Mohammad Abu Samak's profile publishes a consultation fee of 30 JOD. For any other clinic, ask reception for the consultation fee, and for a written estimate of any surgery, tests and follow-up visits, before you agree to a plan.

When booking, confirm the appointment date and time, and check whether the clinic wants previous reports sent in advance. For the Aqaba and Karak clinics, reception is the right place to confirm your attendance and where any procedure would take place.

Frequently asked questions

Who are the best vitreoretinal surgery specialists in Jordan?
This page does not rank doctors by skill or results. It lists seven ophthalmologists who include vitreoretinal surgery among their specialties, ordered by how complete their published profiles are. To narrow the choice, compare the services each doctor lists, the clinic location and hours, and what each profile says about training. Then confirm your options with the clinic directly.
How was this list chosen and ordered?
Every profile on the platform receives a score out of 100 based on how complete and checkable its published information is. The score counts platform verification, approved reviews and their average, published years of experience, qualifications, a written biography, a profile photo, services, listed insurers, confirmed opening hours, a published consultation fee and a map location. Featured placement does not change the score. The order reflects information completeness, not clinical quality.
When is eye care urgent?
Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department for sudden loss of vision in one eye, a shadow or curtain across your view, a sudden shower of floaters with flashes, an eye injury, or severe eye pain with nausea or vomiting. Do not wait for a routine appointment for these signs.
Do I need a referral to see these doctors?
Requirements differ between clinics, so ask reception before your visit whether a referral or previous eye reports are needed. Bring any scans, letters and a list of your current medicines, because they help the doctor compare changes over time and avoid repeating tests.
Which cities do these vitreoretinal specialists work in?
The listed profiles practise in Amman, Aqaba and Karak. The Amman clinics are on Mecca Street and in the Third Circle area. The Aqaba clinics are in Downtown Aqaba. The Karak clinics are in Al Thaniyah and Al Mazar Al Janubi. Check the hours on each profile before you travel.
How much does a consultation cost?
Where a profile publishes a consultation fee, it is shown there. Dr. Mohammad Abu Samak's profile lists 30 JOD. For other clinics, ask reception for the consultation fee and for written estimates of any surgery, tests or follow-up before you agree to treatment.
Can diabetes affect the retina?
Yes. Diabetes can damage the small blood vessels of the retina, a complication called diabetic retinopathy. Major health guidance recommends regular retinal screening for people with diabetes, even without symptoms, and early detection gives more options. Book an eye check if your diabetes care team advises it or if your vision changes.
