🔍
Cataract Screening
Complete eye examination to detect cataract, assess severity, and decide if surgery is needed. Slit-lamp and visual acuity testing.

Post-Cataract Follow-up
For patients who had cataract surgery in Chennai — follow-up consultations available locally to review healing, adjust drops, and check vision.
🩺
Diabetic Eye Examination

Spectacle prescription, dry eyes, eye redness, allergic conjunctivitis, and general eye health queries addressed by a qualified specialist.

Who Should Attend This Camp?

You don't need to travel to Chennai for specialist eye care. Come to Tiruvannamalai if any of these apply to you or your family member.

🌫️ Blurred or cloudy vision
Colours look faded, glare at night, or difficulty reading — may indicate early cataract
🩸 Diabetes for 5+ years
Annual retina screening is essential even if vision seems normal — damage begins silently
✨ Floaters or flashes
Sudden increase in spots, cobwebs, or flashes of light — may signal retinal tear, needs urgent review
📐 Distorted straight lines
Door frames or tiles looking wavy — a warning sign of macular disease affecting central vision
👴 Age above 50
Routine annual eye check recommended — cataract and age-related macular degeneration are common
🏥 Post-op review
Cataract surgery done in Chennai? Follow-up visits can be done locally at this camp
