Crystal Clear Diagnostics for Your Eye Health
Vision is your most critical sense, and protecting it requires precise diagnostics. Our Ophthalmology department offers advanced technological assessments of the eye's structure, retina, and optic nerve. We provide eye care specialists across Siliguri, Darjeeling, and Kurseong with the exact data needed to treat glaucoma, cataracts, and retinal diseases.

Comprehensive Services & Tests Offered
Ocular Coherence Tomography (OCT)
A cutting-edge, non-invasive imaging test that uses specialized light waves to take highly detailed, cross-sectional pictures of your retina.
Fundus Photography
The capture of high-resolution, full-color photographs of the back of the eye to monitor the progression of diseases over time.
Visual Field Testing (Perimetry)
A subjective functional test that measures the full extent of your peripheral (side) and central vision.
Biometry (A-Scan)
An ultrasound diagnostic test specifically used to measure the exact length of the eye and calculate the precise power of the intraocular lens required for cataract surgery.
Corneal Topography
A computerized diagnostic technique that creates a highly detailed, three-dimensional map of the surface curvature of the cornea.
Highlighted Procedures
Ocular Coherence Tomography (OCT)
Acts like an "optical ultrasound," giving doctors a microscopic view beneath the surface of the retina to spot swelling or fluid accumulation before vision is affected.
Visual Field Testing
Requires the patient to press a button when they see flashes of light in their peripheral vision, creating a map of any blind spots caused by optic nerve damage.
Biometry for Cataract Surgery
Ensures the artificial lens implanted during cataract surgery is perfectly customized to the patient's unique eye anatomy.
What to Expect
Your journey from consultation to results, explained.
- 01Before
When should I consider this test?
Advanced eye diagnostics are essential if you experience sudden changes in vision, blurred spots, reduced peripheral vision, or if you are managing conditions that affect eye health like diabetes or high blood pressure. They are also standard protocols before cataract or refractive surgeries.
- 02During
What happens during the procedure?
Eye diagnostics are incredibly fast and non-invasive. For most scans like an OCT or Fundus photo, you will rest your chin on a padded machine and look at a target light. There is no physical contact with your eye. For visual field testing, you will click a button every time you see a flash of light in a specialized dome.
- 03After
How soon will I get my report?
The imaging systems generate the data instantly. Your finalized reports, complete with high-resolution retinal images and structural measurements, are typically handed to you on the same day.

Why Choose Us for Ophthalmology
Pinpoint Accuracy
Sub-micron resolution imaging allows for the earliest possible disease detection.
Non-Invasive Focus
Most procedures involve no physical contact with the eye itself, ensuring absolute comfort.
Expert Optometrists
Trained professionals who ensure your eyes are correctly positioned and safely tested.
Preparation Instructions
If your doctor has requested a dilated exam, you may receive eye drops before the scan, which will make your vision blurry for a few hours. Bring sunglasses and avoid driving yourself home.
Frequently Asked Questions
For most structural scans, you will be asked to remove your contact lenses beforehand. Please bring your lens case and regular glasses.
Yes, OCT relies purely on light waves, not X-rays or harmful radiation. It is entirely safe, painless, and carries no side effects.
