Advanced eye care services including vision testing, cataract surgery, and treatment for common eye conditions.
At Punalur Taluk Headquarters Hospital, the Ophthalmology Department is dedicated to preserving and restoring vision through accessible and comprehensive eye care services. With a fully functional vision testing unit, a minor OT for ophthalmic procedures, and active implementation of the National Programme for Control of Blindness (NPCB), we are recognized for excellence in cataract screening and surgery. Our focus on early detection, surgical precision, and patient awareness ensures quality eye care for all age groups.
Scheduled reviews to monitor healing, assess outcomes, and adjust medications after cataract or other eye surgeries.
Patient education on proper handwashing, avoiding eye rubbing, and contact lens hygiene to prevent infections.
Careful evaluation before surgery and follow-up after to ensure healing, vision improvement, and prevent complications.
Immediate care for ocular trauma with irrigation, dressing, and referral for surgical management if required.
