Ninewells Hospital proudly announces the launch of Ninewells Eye, a state-of-the-art, fully integrated eye care centre offering comprehensive ophthalmic services under one roof. Designed for convenience and efficiency, the centre brings together adult and paediatric outpatient care, advanced diagnostics, surgery, optical services, and an on-site pharmacy on a single floor, ensuring quick and seamless service for the entire family.
Ninewells Eye features two newly built, fully dedicated eye surgery theatres, equipped with the latest ophthalmic technology to support advanced procedures, including modern cataract surgery, with the highest standards of safety and precision. A full range of advanced diagnostics, such as OCT, visual field testing, and laser treatments, enables accurate diagnosis and minimally invasive care with faster recovery.
Patients benefit from specialist consultations with experienced ophthalmologists, personalised treatment plans, and complete optical solutions, including eye testing, prescription lenses, and frames, all in one location. The centre’s uniquely designed patient flow, from admission to surgery and discharge on the same floor, makes it the only integrated eye care hub of its kind in Sri Lanka. A dedicated VIP lounge further enhances comfort for patients and families during surgical procedures.
Commenting on the launch, Ninewells Hospital management stated: "Ninewells Eye reflects our commitment to delivering international-standard eye care through an integrated, patient-focused approach that is both accessible and convenient."
With Ninewells Eye, Ninewells Hospital continues to strengthen its specialised services, reinforcing its mission to provide compassionate, high-quality healthcare across Sri Lanka.
