Shimizu Ophthalmology Clinic

About

Located on Kogan-dori in Suwa City, Nagano Prefecture, Shimizu Eye Clinic has been serving the community as a specialized ophthalmology clinic since its establishment in 1985. The clinic provides comprehensive eye care, ranging from common conditions such as conjunctivitis, styes, dry eye, eye strain, and allergic conjunctivitis to more complex diseases including cataracts, glaucoma, and fundus disorders (such as diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration), functioning as a trusted local eye care provider. A distinctive feature is the availability of same-day surgeries for cataracts, vitreous procedures, glaucoma, and lacrimal endoscopic surgery, allowing patients to receive surgical treatment without hospitalization. Contact lens prescriptions are also available, with comprehensive examinations before and after fitting. Clinic hours are weekdays from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM to 5:30 PM, with Saturday morning sessions only; registration opens 30 minutes before each session. The clinic is closed on Wednesdays, Sundays, and public holidays. The facility offers parking and is wheelchair accessible, creating an easily navigable environment for elderly patients and those with mobility limitations. Additionally, English-language support is available, making the clinic accessible for those who require communication in languages other than Japanese.
