Superspeciality Child Eye Care

Child eye care is crucial because good vision is integral to a child’s development. Regular eye exams help detect any vision problems early, ensuring optimal academic performance, social development, and safety. Detecting and treating issues like amblyopia (lazy eye) promptly can prevent long-term vision impairment. Therefore, prioritizing child eye care through regular check-ups with pediatric ophthalmologists is essential for maintaining overall health and well-being.

Myopia clinic

Do you keep worrying why your child’s myopia (minus spectacle power) is increasing and what you can do to prevent the progression? We have a special myopia clinic where our pediatric ophthalmologist first assess for the cause of increasing myopia. Specialised tools like Occulyser and IOL master 700 are used for this. Then preventive modalities are suggested to slow down the progression. Amongst these one modality is myopia control glasses from companies like Essilor, Zeiss and Hoya. Second is special myopia control eye drops (0.01% Atropine). Third is counselling session on changes in life style to control myopia progression. Efficacy of these modalities can be checked by a myopia calculator.

Amblyopia clinic

Though gold standard for treating amblyopia or lazy eye is patching or occlusion therapy, sometimes compliance is an issue or vision improvement reaches a plateau. So we offer something more: A cloud based Dichoptic therapy called Bynocs which is done on a laptop or desktop in the comfort of your home. It is guided by experts from their main office at Mumbai. 

Squint

Our pediatric team specialises in treating squints at all ages. Squint assessment is done using gadgets like prism box and stereo acuity charts. Glasses, occlusion therapy and surgery are the main stay of treatment, but the key to success lies in using the right modality at the right time. Our specially trained squint specialist guides the treatment. If surgery is planned, we have a well equipped pediatric OT with workstation and sevoflurane anaesthesia, experienced squint surgeon, expert pediatric anaesthetist and ORBIS International trained pediatric nurse. There is no age limit for squint surgery, it can be done even in adults with good results. However treating squint at a young age is better for vision development
