-- Liv Hospital announced today the expansion of its ophthalmology department, offering advanced diagnostic, medical, and surgical care for a full spectrum of eye conditions. The initiative reflects the hospital’s continued commitment to providing multidisciplinary vision care grounded in modern technology and evidence-based clinical practice.
Ophthalmology is the medical specialty responsible for diagnosing and treating diseases of the eye and visual system. As licensed physicians, ophthalmologists are trained to manage both the medical and surgical aspects of eye disorders, including conditions that may threaten sight or indicate broader systemic disease. Liv Hospital’s expanded program is structured to serve pediatric and adult patients requiring routine evaluation, complex disease management, or specialized surgical intervention.
Conditions Treated Within Liv Hospital’s Ophthalmology Program
Liv Hospital’s ophthalmologists provide care for a wide range of vision and eye-related conditions, including:
- Cataract: Clouding of the natural lens and a leading cause of reversible vision loss
- Glaucoma: Optic nerve disease requiring continuous monitoring and management
- Refractive Errors: Nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia
- Macular Degeneration: Age-related damage affecting central vision
- Diabetic Retinopathy: Retinal damage linked to longstanding diabetes
- Ocular Infections and Inflammatory Conditions: Conjunctivitis, uveitis, keratitis
- Eye Trauma: Injury assessment, surgical repair, and functional rehabilitation
Liv Hospital’s specialists also coordinate care for patients with systemic diseases, such as diabetes or autoimmune disorders, where eye involvement may provide early diagnostic clues.
Diagnostic Methods and Technology
The ophthalmology department utilizes a comprehensive range of diagnostic tools to support accurate evaluation and long-term management, including:
- Slit-lamp examination and fundoscopy
- OCT (optical coherence tomography) imaging
- Ocular ultrasound
- Visual acuity and visual field testing
- Intraocular pressure assessment
- Laboratory investigations for systemic conditions with ocular manifestations
These technologies enable detailed visualization of eye structures and help guide individualized treatment plans.
Treatment Options and Surgical Capabilities
Liv Hospital offers both medical and surgical treatment for eye diseases, including:
Medication Management
Topical, oral, or injectable therapies for infections, inflammatory disease, and chronic ocular conditions.
Laser Treatments
Laser procedures for glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and small retinal tears.
Surgical Procedures
- Cataract extraction
- Corneal transplantation
- Glaucoma surgery
- Retinal detachment repair
- Oculoplastic and eyelid surgeries
Each procedure is performed to support visual recovery, prevent further deterioration, and maintain overall eye health.
Ophthalmology’s Role in General Health
Liv Hospital highlights the broader medical significance of ophthalmic evaluation, as eye findings often provide early evidence of systemic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and neurological disorders. The department emphasizes the importance of routine examinations to support both ocular and overall health.
