Eyes are a very amazing part of our body. They are a small organ of 24 mm in size, 7.5 g in weight, and 6.5 cc in volume, but require the largest amount of blood circulation and energy per unit weight in the body. Eyes are literally a small universe on which all physiological elements such as circulation, nerves, and nutrition are concentrated. The department of Ophthalmology strives to give bright eyesight and clear life to mankind by diagnosing, analyzing, and treating all sorts of diseases related to cornea/cataract, glaucoma, retina disease, optic nerve disease, amblyopia, congenital & genetic disorders, and ophthalmic plastic reconstruction in this tiny universe.
We will provide all our patients with comfortable and friendly services as well as quality medical treatment. You are not just people to be treated but partners who will enhance health values with us. We are looking forward to your interest, encouragement, and advice.
