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.
