Ophthalmology

The Ophthalmology Department specializes in the screening, diagnosis, pharmacologic management, and surgical treatment of diseases affecting the eyeball and its adnexa, serving patients across all age groups—from children and adolescents to young adults and the elderly. In collaboration with the hospital’s Health Management Center, the department conducts comprehensive eye health screenings, providing patients with a full spectrum of ophthalmic diagnostic and therapeutic services. The department’s scope of care encompasses ocular surface disorders, including conjunctivitis, keratitis, dry eye syndrome, blepharitis, hordeolum, chalazion, dacryocystitis, and nasolacrimal duct obstruction; refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia; lens-related conditions, including various types of cataracts; retinal diseases, such as vitreous opacities, retinal lesions, and macular degeneration; glaucoma; orbital disorders; and a wide range of ocular traumas and eyelid deformities, including ectropion and entropion. Equipped with specialized diagnostic tools—including slit lamps, tonometers, fundus cameras, and autorefractors—the department can swiftly perform both routine and advanced eye examinations, enabling precise localization of pathological lesions.

For adolescents, the department prioritizes myopia prevention and control by establishing refractive development records. Based on comprehensive eye examination results, it provides evidence-based guidelines for proper eye use and customized optical correction plans to slow the rapid progression of myopia. For age‑related blinding conditions such as cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration—common among middle-aged and older adults—the department emphasizes early screening and timely intervention. Patients with cataracts who meet surgical criteria receive standardized surgical treatment, thereby improving visual quality in this population. As dry eye syndrome is a prevalent condition in modern times, the department differentiates among various etiologies and employs a multidisciplinary approach—including pharmacologic therapies and physical modalities—to alleviate symptoms such as ocular dryness, irritation, fatigue, and foreign-body sensations. For patients with ocular trauma, the department ensures prompt management of globe contusions and intraocular foreign bodies, striving to preserve visual function to the greatest extent possible.

The department places great emphasis on perioperative management. For elderly patients and those with comorbidities such as diabetes and hypertension, we conduct thorough preoperative assessments to effectively manage surgical risks. Postoperatively, we ensure standardized follow-up care, provide guidance on medication and eye‑care precautions, and take measures to prevent postoperative complications, including infections. In addition, we actively engage in public education on eye health, promoting the importance of proper eye use and regular eye examinations. If you experience symptoms such as eye redness or pain, photophobia with tearing, decreased vision, distorted vision, floating dark spots, or double vision, please seek prompt evaluation by an ophthalmologist.
