A detailed eye examination could take 1 to 2 hours, depending on the complexity of tests required to be done as there are many different eye conditions. You have to give your complete address with telephone number at the registration counter on your arrival. You will be asked to take a seat until our receptionist calls out your name for your vision test.

Every patient has a simple test to check your level of vision from an eye chart. A refractionist will place a series of lens in front of your eyes and will ask which looks clearer. This test determines your exact eye power and determines your level of sight. A doctor will carry out an initial examination of your eyes.

For patients aged 40+, we will check your blood pressure, intraocular pressure and a urine test for diabetes.

The doctor may ask the refractionist to put some drops for dilating your eye. This is to make the pupils bigger in order to get a better view of the inside of the eye. It may take up to half an hour for dilation and thereafter the doctor will recommend medication, surgery or spectacles as the case may be.

Patients who require surgery will be asked to get admitted in the hospital and they can choose from the different surgical packages that we have. At the time of counseling, the patient will be assisted in selecting the surgical package most suited, which are based on the type of IOL's opted by the patient.

The surgical package selected includes the following:

AC, Non AC Room or the ward as the case may be. Break fast, lunch, dinner for the days of stay, which is normally two days.

• Well furnished AC and Non AC rooms
• Dormitory with 5 beds
• Semi private wards
• General wards

For local patients or those living closeby, the surgery can also be done as an OPD procedure. In other words the patient can get admitted in the morning, get surgery done and go home. He/she can come the next day for the post operative check up and thereafter 7 days later for follow up and the final check up after 30 days.
