Horyuji Sakura Ophthalmology Clinic
About
Horyuji Sakura Eye Clinic, operated by Sakura Medical Corporation, is an ophthalmology clinic located in Ikaruga-cho, Ikoma-gun, Nara Prefecture. The clinic operates on a priority appointment system, and new patients can make advance reservations by phone. While walk-ins are accepted during consultation hours, waiting times may be longer, so visitors are advised to allow extra time. Consultation hours are from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM, with closures on Sundays, public holidays, Golden Week, Obon, and the New Year period. A distinctive service offered is the contact lens clinic, where soft contact lenses are handled Monday through Friday from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM. First-time contact lens users require time for insertion practice and should arrive by 4:30 PM. Hard contact lenses and specialized lenses are available through a fully reservation-based specialty clinic held twice monthly on Wednesday afternoons (first and third Wednesdays). The facility offers parking and is barrier-free, creating an accessible environment for patients of all ages. English-speaking staff are available, and credit cards and electronic payments are accepted, making this a highly convenient eye clinic.
