The Department of Ophthalmology at AIIMS Nagpur was established in 2019.
Our vision is to restore vision. We strive to provide sight to the sightless.
We are committed to a culture of excellence in the field of patient care. In our pursuit for quality, we have procured a wide range of the latest, state-of-the art machines and equipment and have made available for poor patients a huge variety of OPD, diagnostic and operative services across the Ophthalmic sub-specialties estimated to save more than 5 crores of patient’s finances annually. We are committed to providing optimum and rational medical and/or surgical solutions to our patients with all types of ophthalmic complaints.
Armed with a team of bright, young minds, we foresee a future which is rich in Research work. We are already involved in a number of clinical trials and multi-centric studies. We are eager to form new associations and collaborations, both within and outside the institute in order to further the cause of science with a strong basis of community welfare. To this end, we have started out-reach services and community camps as well as online consultations.
We are dedicated in imparting education to the under-graduate and post-graduate students in Ophthalmology by striving to make them competent not just in analytical, reflective thinking and clinical-surgical skills but also by helping them develop empathy, team-spirit and professionalism. We also plan to raise a cadre of well-trained Optometry graduates and conduct many certificate courses in the coming years.
