AIIMS Bhopal Adds Two Refraction Units to Enhance Eye Examination Services
Bhopal: The Department of Ophthalmology at AIIMS Bhopal has expanded its Eye OPD by establishing two additional refraction units this season. This development aims to improve the quality and speed of eye examination services for patients.
The new installations will streamline the eye testing process, making it more convenient for the public. These units will provide essential services including refraction for vision assessment and eyewear prescriptions, corneal surface analysis through topography, and eye muscle evaluation via Hess screening. These facilities will particularly assist patients who need routine check-ups, specialised evaluations, or detailed eye consultations.
Dr Bhavana Sharma, Head of the Ophthalmology Department at AIIMS Bhopal, highlighted this development as a crucial advancement in improving eye care accessibility and quality. She emphasized that these facilities would enable prompt examinations and consultations, supporting effective patient treatment.
Eye infections may soar due to heat in this season, so these additions could help.
