Furano Ophthalmology Clinic
About
Furano Eye Clinic, located in Yayoicho, Furano City, Hokkaido, is an ophthalmology clinic that opened in 2022. Dr. Miwa Saito, the director, graduated from Asahikawa Medical University and, after working at various hospitals across the prefecture, established this clinic with the goal of being a place where patients can feel comfortable visiting and consulting. The clinic offers appointments on weekday mornings and Monday through Saturday mornings (excluding the 4th and 5th Saturdays), with weekday afternoons also available, while Wednesday afternoons are dedicated to diagnostic tests and outpatient surgeries. Notably, the clinic has a collaborative relationship with Tokugawa Eye Clinic in Asahikawa City, which is recognized for its university hospital-level ophthalmology. For patients seeking cataract surgery, free transportation to Asahikawa is provided every Wednesday, and pre- and post-operative examinations can be completed within the clinic. For complex and challenging cases, Dr. Tokugawa from Tokugawa Eye Clinic may perform the surgery directly. The clinic offers services in English, provides approximately 10 parking spaces, and is equipped with barrier-free facilities, creating an accessible environment for patients from diverse backgrounds.
