Nomura Ophthalmology

About

Nomura Eye Clinic, located in Wakamiya-cho, Shunan City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, is a long-established ophthalmology specialty clinic that has been in operation since shortly after World War II. Since 1984, the clinic has been led by a second-generation director who trained in the Department of Ophthalmology at Kyushu University School of Medicine, providing ophthalmic care to the local community for many years. The director holds board certification from the Japanese Ophthalmological Society and is also a member of the Japan Surgical Society and the Japan Glaucoma Society, ensuring that care is grounded in specialized knowledge and skill. No appointment is required; consultations are available Monday through Saturday, with both morning and afternoon hours. Wednesday afternoons and Saturday afternoons have reduced hours, and on the second and fourth Wednesday mornings, a substitute physician is on duty, reflecting a flexible operational structure. The clinic offers services in both English and Mandarin Chinese, making it accessible to patients who do not speak Japanese. The facility features a dedicated parking lot and is fully barrier-free, accommodating both patients who drive and those with physical disabilities. With expertise in glaucoma and a wide range of other ophthalmic conditions, this clinic is a trusted pillar of eye health care in the Shunan City area.
