Hitomi Ophthalmology
About
Hitomi Eye Clinic, located in Nishihomachi, Aisai City, Aichi Prefecture, is an ophthalmology specialty clinic conveniently accessible from Yatomi City and Tsushima City. Situated approximately a 5-minute walk from Meitetsu Bisai Line's "Gonosan" Station and equipped with a shared parking lot, the clinic is easily reachable by both train and car. A notable feature of the clinic is its team of multiple ophthalmologists, each with distinct areas of expertise spanning cataracts, ptosis, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy. Director Dr. Hideaki Usui is a retinal disease specialist who honed his skills at Nagoya City University's Department of Ophthalmology, while Vice Director Dr. Obara specializes in cataract surgery. Surgical procedures utilize the latest equipment from U.S.-based Alcon, the "CENTURION® ACTIVE SENTRY®," and day surgeries are performed with nitrous oxide analgesia to minimize patient pain and anxiety. The clinic also collaborates with the adjacent Haga Diabetes and Internal Medicine Clinic, offering photocoagulation surgery and anti-VEGF injections for diabetic retinopathy, reflecting a cross-disciplinary care system that integrates ophthalmology and internal medicine. In addition to general eye care, the clinic handles pediatric ophthalmology, contact lens prescriptions, and hay fever treatment, and consultations in English are available. Credit card and electronic payment options are accepted, and barrier-free facilities are in place, making this a clinic well-equipped to meet a wide range of patient needs.
