Ophthalmology

Department overview

The Ophthalmology service at Nirmal Hospital focuses on comprehensive, patient-centred eye care, including the assessment of vision, evaluation of eye health, and management of common ophthalmic conditions. Care is directed towards accurate diagnosis, appropriate treatment, preservation of vision, and maintaining long-term eye health. Dr. Uma Pandey, Consultant – Ophthalmology, holds an MBBS and an MS in Ophthalmology. Her documented areas of expertise include comprehensive eye examinations, cataract evaluation and management, refractive errors and vision correction, glaucoma evaluation and management, common eye diseases, diabetic and hypertensive eye screening, and anterior segment disorders. Eye assessments can help identify vision-related concerns and eye conditions that may require ongoing monitoring or treatment. Screening is particularly relevant for people living with diabetes or hypertension, as these conditions can affect eye health. The appropriate evaluation and care plan depend on the patient's symptoms, examination findings, and clinical needs. Nirmal Hospital aims to support patients through professional consultation, appropriate clinical assessment, preventive eye care, and guidance on follow-up where needed.
