Kobayashi Ophthalmology Clinic

About

Kobayashi Eye Clinic, located in Hanazono-cho, Kitaakita City, Akita Prefecture, is a specialized clinic providing comprehensive ophthalmology services to the local community. In addition to general ophthalmic care, the clinic performs various surgeries including cataract surgery, ensuring that patients requiring surgical treatment can receive care within the region. While the clinic has a long track record of performing LASIK surgery since 2002, they have discontinued LASIK procedures and now guide patients toward alternative corrective surgery options for refractive errors such as myopia. The clinic has also newly introduced myopia progression suppression treatment for children, demonstrating active engagement in pediatric ophthalmology. To meet increasing surgical demand, they have designated every Friday as a full-day surgery day without outpatient consultations since January 2024, aiming to reduce waiting periods. The facility is equipped with parking, making access by car convenient. English-speaking services are available, creating an accessible environment for patients whose native language is not Japanese. Please note that first-time contact lens purchases require scheduled initial examination appointments, so booking an appointment before visiting is necessary.
