About
Nishi-Nippori Station Front Kosaka Eye Clinic is an ophthalmology specialty medical facility conveniently located just a 1-minute walk from JR Nishi-Nippori Station. It is also immediately accessible from Exit 2 of the Chiyoda Line Nishi-Nippori Station, providing an easily accessible environment for patients. Clinic Director Dr. Koichi Kosaka graduated from Tokai University School of Medicine in 1998, gained experience at Tokyo Dental College Ichikawa General Hospital, Keio University, Saitama Social Insurance Hospital, Sano Kosei General Hospital, and Tsurumi University, and established this clinic in 2013. Currently serving as a part-time ophthalmologist at Tokyo Metropolitan Komagome Hospital, the clinic provides treatment based on extensive clinical experience. In terms of treatments, the clinic performs Lucentis intravitreal injections for age-related macular degeneration. This condition involves waste accumulation beneath the retinal pigment epithelium damaging the macula as people age. The clinic uses Lucentis to inhibit substances in the body that promote the growth of choroidal neovascularization. For blepharospasm and hemifacial spasm, the clinic provides Botox therapy, which can only be performed by physicians who have completed prescribed training and received certification for Botox administration. Director Kosaka has received this certification. For lacrimal duct disorders, which cause symptoms such as overflow tears due to blocked lacrimal drainage ducts or pus-like eye discharge, the clinic provides same-day lacrimal duct endoscopic treatment performed by the experienced director. In terms of facilities, barrier-free access is available, and payment methods include credit cards and electronic payments. Foreign language services are available in English and Korean. Clinic hours are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM (2:00 PM to 6:00 PM), and Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. The clinic is closed on Thursdays, Sundays, holidays, and year-end/New Year period.
