Ophthalmology

Ophthalmology at Rajah Hospital in Guruvayoor provides comprehensive eye care, including cataract and vision correction surgery, for patients across Thrissur district, Kerala. Cataracts are one of the most common causes of vision loss in older adults, and our phaco cataract surgery service uses modern small-incision techniques to restore clear vision with minimal downtime. Comprehensive eye checkups form the foundation of the department’s work, catching early signs of conditions like glaucoma and diabetic eye disease before they cause permanent vision loss. Glaucoma management involves regular monitoring of eye pressure and, where needed, medication or procedures to protect the optic nerve from further damage. Retina evaluation is available for patients with diabetes, high blood pressure, or other conditions that can affect the back of the eye, working closely with our Diabetology department where relevant. Whether you need a routine vision check, treatment for an eye condition, or cataract surgery, our ophthalmologists provide thorough, unhurried consultations for patients of all ages.
