Clinical Department & Center

Ophthalmology

Greetings

Our department conducts research on diseases of the visual system (eyes), the most important sensory organ to receive information from the outside world in daily life, and apply the results of our research to the prescription of medications and the performance of surgery in necessary cases.   
We hope that this website will provide greater awareness of the medical care available at our department.

There are 32 beds in our ward, where medical care is provided to approximately 700 inpatients each year. We also see an average of more than 100 outpatients each day, and perform more than 1,000 surgical operations each year.

We conduct research on diverse eye diseases and continuously strive to prevent and cure visual impairment and loss of vision to assure patients of the best ophthalmic care.
