About
Machida Eye Clinic, located in Hamanaku, Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture, is an ophthalmology clinic offering English-speaking services, parking, and barrier-free accessibility. Clinic hours are 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM, with afternoon sessions closed on Thursdays and Saturdays. Sundays and holidays are also closed. Reception closes 15 minutes before the end of each session—at 11:45 AM for the morning session and 5:45 PM for the afternoon session—after which reception is not available. While appointments are prioritized, walk-ins are also accepted. First-time patients, those seeking glasses or contact lens prescriptions, and those requiring pupil-dilation examinations should arrive at least 30 minutes before closing. Those seeking contact lens prescriptions for the first time must arrive at least 1 hour before closing. Patients requiring examinations for diabetes, retinal diseases, or experiencing symptoms such as floaters or sudden vision changes will undergo mydriasis (pupil dilation) examination, which causes light sensitivity for 3-4 hours, so driving should be avoided afterward. The clinic recommends wearing masks for infection control and uses air conditioning with windows open for ventilation. The clinic director and vice director collaborate on patient care, with duty schedules varying by day.
