What to expect at eye OPD
Reception directs you to vision checks, slit-lamp review, and diagnostic tests such as OCT or NCT when indicated. Routine visits may include dilation—bring sunglasses and avoid driving yourself if drops are used until your doctor clears you. LASIK counselling explains Contoura mapping; cataract and retina pathways share the same diagnostics already listed above.
Prepare for your visit
Carry current spectacles, contact-lens boxes, and a list of systemic medicines (especially for diabetes or blood thinners)
For planned injections or laser days, follow the fasting or medication plan our team confirms—do not assume nil-by-mouth unless instructed
Bring old prescriptions or operation notes so lens choices and retina history stay consistent
When to seek urgent eye care
Sudden painless vision loss, curtain-like shadow, or new flashes and floaters with a shower of spots
Chemical splash, penetrating injury, or high-velocity metal to the eye—shield the eye and seek emergency care immediately
Severe eye pain with nausea and halos—call so we can prioritise you alongside other emergencies
Coordination with surgery & medicine
Patients who need cataract or retina treatment alongside diabetes control or preoperative clearance can lean on general surgery and physician colleagues on campus for shared planning. Fracture-related periorbital swelling or facial trauma can also be triaged with our surgical team when the eye department advises joint assessment.
