About
Shibetsu Eye Clinic is an ophthalmology clinic located in Higashi 4-jo, Shibetsu City, Hokkaido. The clinic director, a certified specialist by the Japanese Ophthalmological Society, provides community-based healthcare utilizing advanced techniques cultivated at university hospitals and medical equipment at university hospital standards. A notable feature of the clinic is its ability to perform same-day vitreoretinal surgery, one of the few facilities north of Asahikawa to offer this service. Cataract surgery is also performed on a same-day basis, and vitreous injections for age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy can be provided on the same day without appointment. In terms of facilities, the clinic features barrier-free design with no steps, handrails, a kids' space, and accessible restrooms, demonstrating consideration for families with children and elderly patients. The clinic has implemented a partially reservation-based system and a calling system that allows patients to check their appointment progress in real-time both inside and outside the clinic, working to reduce waiting time burdens. The clinic handles a wide range of cases from pediatric ophthalmology to eye diseases in elderly patients, and under the philosophy of "providing the joy of seeing throughout life," serves as a home doctor rooted in the local community. In addition to English support, the clinic accepts credit cards and electronic payments, and its convenient location with a large parking lot and proximity to bus stops is another attractive feature.
