About Ophthalmology

As one of the most specialized ocular health practices in India, the Department of Ophthalmology at Divya Prastha Hospital provides patients with access to expert diagnostics and care that includes interventional procedures and surgery.

Globally, over 2 billion have impaired vision or some kind of blindness, out of which at least 1 billion casescould have been prevented with medical intervention. The major causes of impaired vision across the globe are refractive errors and cataracts which have been left untreated. Most vision impairment cases are among people who are above 50 years of age.

Divya Prastha Hospital ophthalmologists and cardiovascular surgeons believe in the value of accurate diagnosis in achieving effective treatment. The team is equipped with a wide range of diagnostic tools and tests with which to identify ocular disorders. The procedural treatments performed by our team of ophthalmological surgeons are designed to be minimally invasive and as safe as possible.
