Hyderabad, Telangana (India), October 09, 2024: Cataract Clinics, a new venture by Refracto
Eye Hospitals, has officially launched its patient-centric cataract treatment
services from October 2 aimed at reshaping cataract care in India. The
initiative focuses on providing comprehensive, affordable, and accessible eye
care, responding to the urgent demand for better cataract management in the
country.
At the launch event, Dr. Pradeep Kumar Boddu,
MD and CEO of Refracto Eye Hospitals, shared his vision: "Our goal is to
eliminate the barriers preventing individuals from accessing timely cataract
treatment. By offering patient-centred services, we are taking a significant
step toward that."
Cataract Clinics’ flagship offering is its comprehensive at-home cataract workup.
This innovative service includes a detailed visual acuity assessment, a dilated
eye exam for retina screening, cataract grading, and intraocular lens (IOL)
measurement scans, all conducted at the patient’s residence. This approach
minimizes the need for multiple hospital visits, making it a more convenient
and patient-friendly solution.
A key highlight is the single-visit cataract surgery, which allows patients to undergo
surgery after just one hospital consultation, following a personalized
pre-surgical assessment and counseling at home. This streamlined process
reduces the stress and inconvenience associated with multiple trips to the
hospital, especially in metropolitan areas like Hyderabad where traffic and
time constraints often deter timely care.
Dr. Boddu explained the importance of this
approach: “Many patients delay cataract surgery due to the hassle of multiple
visits and the impact on their workdays. Our single-visit surgery model
addresses this by offering a fast, efficient solution.
Cataract Clinics is staffed by a team of
highly skilled ophthalmologists and healthcare specialists dedicated to
providing exceptional care from diagnosis through recovery. Their focus on
operational efficiency enables the clinic to offer high-quality cataract
surgery at affordable prices, ensuring cost is not a barrier to care.
“Cataracts remain one of the leading causes of
preventable blindness in India,” Dr. Boddu emphasized. “We aim to educate the
community on the importance of regular eye check-ups and early intervention in
cataract cases.”
In addition to treatment, Cataract Clinics is
driving awareness campaigns to
educate the public on cataract risk factors and the importance of early
detection. Through these community outreach efforts, the clinic seeks to
empower individuals to take control of their eye health and seek timely care.
