Hoshiyama Ophthalmology
About
Located in Hamatera-minamimachi, Nishi-ku, Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture, Hosishi-yama Ophthalmology Clinic provides specialized eye care including general ophthalmology, pediatric ophthalmology, cataract, glaucoma, and fundus diseases. The clinic opened in spring 2013, and the director, who served as head of the ophthalmology department at Kishiwada City Hospital for six years, provides treatment along with other physicians who are graduates of Kyoto University School of Medicine. For cataract surgery, same-day surgery is possible for most patients, and surgery can be performed while continuing antiplatelet or anticoagulant medications, with bleeding tendencies confirmed through blood tests before surgery. The clinic is equipped with laser devices and vitreoretinal surgery equipment to handle fundus diseases such as diabetic retinopathy and retinal detachment. In addition to these surgical capabilities, the clinic also provides eyeglass and contact lens prescriptions, and offers parking and barrier-free facilities with English-speaking services available.
