Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine, which deals with the diseases of the eye and their treatment. The word ophthalmology comes from the Greek roots ophthalmos meaning eye and logos meaning word; ophthalmology literally means "the science of eyes." The eye, including its structure and mechanism, has fascinated scientists and the public in general since ancient times. The discovery of the eye went through two cycles of limiting speculation and freeing observation, which led to a dark age between Galen and Vesalius.  Arabic scientists are some of the earliest to have written about and drawn the anatomy of the eye—the earliest known diagram being in Hunain ibn Is-hâq's Book of the Ten Treatises on the Eye. Earlier manuscripts exist which refer to diagrams which are not known to have survived. Understanding of the eye had been so slow to develop because for a long time the lens was perceived to be the seat of vision, not a tool of vision. This mistake was corrected when Fabricius and his successors correctly placed the lens and developed the modern notion of the structure of the eye.

Ophthalmology includes sub-specialities, which deal either with certain diseases or diseases of certain part of the eye. Some of them are: Anterior segment surgery, Cataract, Cornea, ocular surface, and external disease, Eye trauma, Glaucoma, Neuro-ophthalmology, Ocular oncology, Oculo-plastic surgery, Ophthalmic pathology, Pediatric ophthalmology/Strabismus (squint), Refractive surgery, Retina and Vitreous (sometimes labelled as a posterior segment specialization) & Uveitis/Immunology. 

A cataract is an opacification or cloudiness of the eye's crystalline lens due to aging, disease, or trauma that typically prevents light from forming a clear image on the retina. If visual loss is significant, surgical removal of the lens may be warranted, with lost optical power usually replaced with a plastic intraocular lens (IOL). Due to the high prevalence of cataracts, cataract extraction is the most common eye surgery.

The hospital was among the first in the region to facilitate cataract removal by Phaco Emulsification method – a surgical laser procedure, wherein the lens is replaced with minimal incision. For ophthalmic treatment the hospitals has a separate operation theatre, eye ward and investigation  and consultation department for diagnosis and treatment for eye related diseases and disorders. The department is equipped with state of art equipment including Zeiss Operative Microscope, Yaglaser, A.B.Scan, Refractometer,  Keratometer and others.

Treatment of nearly all kinds of eye ailments and disorders are provided at the hospitals. This includes trauma cases,  capsulotomy,  Glaucoma,  trabeculoplasty , Iridotomy, iridectomy, or surgical iridectomy, Filtering surgeries-Corneal surgery, Vitreo-retinal surgery, Eye muscle surgery, Oculoplastic surgery  and others
