OPHTHALMOLOGY
CENTER OF EXCELLENCE
Ovierview
The Department of Ophthalmology at Bharati Hospital, Pune, has been serving patients since 1989 with a complete range of eye care services. From routine vision exams to complex retinal surgeries and pediatric ophthalmology, the department provides integrated diagnostics, medical management, laser therapies, and surgical interventions for patients across all age groups.
With dedicated specialty clinics for Retina, Glaucoma, Cornea, Pediatric Eye Care, and Oculoplasty, the department ensures early diagnosis and focused care for specific conditions. Emergency eye trauma services and ND:YAG laser facilities are also available.
