Our clinic provides comprehensive surgical treatment for a wide range of ophthalmic conditions, including:

Lens replacement surgery for cataracts, including implantation of multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs)
Vitrectomy for retinal and vitreoretinal diseases
Glaucoma surgery
Ptosis (drooping eyelid) surgery and lacrimal duct surgery
Pterygium surgery

We offer surgical treatment for a broad spectrum of eye diseases, utilizing advanced surgical techniques and state-of-the-art equipment.

For cataract surgery with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, we carefully assess each patient's visual needs and lifestyle to recommend the most appropriate intraocular lens for optimal visual outcomes. We perform a large number of procedures using multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) and also offer simultaneous bilateral cataract surgery for eligible patients. These procedures are performed by Dr. Noriyasu Hashida, Clinic Director.

For retinal and vitreoretinal diseases, we provide comprehensive surgical treatment for conditions including retinal detachment, epiretinal membrane, and macular hole. Emergency surgery can be performed on the same day when clinically indicated. Inpatient surgery is also available. These procedures are performed by Dr. Daiki Shiozaki.

For glaucoma, we offer minimally invasive surgical procedures tailored to each patient's condition. Emergency glaucoma surgery is available when required. Treatment is provided by Dr. Shinichi Usui and Dr. Takanori Matsuoka.

We also perform outpatient (same-day) surgery for ptosis (drooping eyelid) and lacrimal duct disorders causing excessive tearing. These procedures are performed by Dr. Yoshiyuki Kitaguchi.

In addition, we provide surgical treatment for pterygium and conjunctival tumors, as well as a wide range of other ophthalmic conditions.

Remarks
【Treatment Schedule】
During your initial consultation, your ophthalmologist will evaluate your condition and determine an appropriate surgical schedule.

Preoperative examinations may be completed on the same day, depending on appointment availability and examination capacity.

Both same-day (outpatient) surgery and inpatient surgery are available, depending on your medical condition and the type of procedure.

Postoperative follow-up visits are scheduled according to your diagnosis and the complexity of your surgery. Follow-up examinations are typically performed the day after surgery, a few days later, one week, two weeks, and one month after surgery to monitor healing and ensure a stable recovery.

Depending on your postoperative condition, you may be able to continue follow-up care in your home country at an early stage. If necessary, we will provide a medical referral letter and treatment summary for your local ophthalmologist.
Precautions / Contraindications
Please bring any medical records or documents that describe your current medical conditions and medications (including prescription medications, over-the-counter drugs, and supplements, if applicable).

If you are scheduled for inpatient treatment, please inform us of any food allergies or dietary restrictions, as meals will be provided during your hospital stay.
