Ophthalmology

The Department of Ophthalmology was established in the year 1972. It joined hands with C.B.M Germany in 1974. Rehabilitation Centre for the blind was started under the department of Ophthalmology in 1974 with the assistance of C.B.M Germany. This centre provided vocational training to the blind women. The community eye care project was started in 1994 to serve the community to provide preventive curative and rehabilitative services to the people in Ernakulam District and parts of Idukki &Kottayam districts.  Over the year’s department of Ophthalmology has emerged as one of the best centres in Kerala offering quality eye care at affordable cost. Now we have 3 fully equipped Operation Theatres where major ophthalmic surgeries are performed. We also have the latest technologies for the diagnosis and treatment of complicated eye diseases like Cataract, Glaucoma, Diabetic Retinopathy & Squint etc.
