Eye Centre - Ophthalmology

Synonym(s):

The Eye Centre is the only dedicated paediatric eye clinic within a children's hospital in Singapore and the region. Our team of experienced paediatric ophthalmologists is assisted by clinic staff experienced in caring for children.

Common paediatric conditions which we see include amblyopia, childhood strabismus, retinopathy of prematurity, childhood refractive errors (including management of myopia progression). We also have expertise in the management of severe conditions like congenital ocular abnormalities, childhood cataracts, ocular tumours (like retinoblastoma). We work closely with doctors with oculoplastic, corneal, glaucoma, neuro-opthmological and retinal expertise, and are therefore able to offer care to children with all types of rarer opthalmological diseases.

We believe that through early diagnosis and management is important in ensuring best possible visual outcomes for many children. We are well-equipped with a range of imaging and diagnostic equipment.

To make the children feel comfortable and welcome, the centre was made with large consultation rooms and a spacious colourful waiting area.
The rooms are designed to facilitate the smooth flow of patients from one area of eye tests and investigations to the next.

Announcements 16 preschools establish a new service model to identify developmental, growth and oral health needs in children from 2 months old. Model to expand to more preschools Ella1 was enrolled as an 18-month-old playgroup (PG) student at a PCFSP at Punggol in October 2022. After a few months, as part of routine monitoring based on a surveillance checklist developed by MIP2, educators noted that compared to her peers, Ella was not communicating verbally and played alone. While Ella was able to follow instructions, she was unable to express her needs verbally. Typically, such behaviours may have been attributed to her young age and gone unidentified until they worsen. However, under the MIP2 service model and the guidance of the School Child Development Unit (SCDU), Ella was identified to be at risk and require low levels of support for developmental needs based on the MIP2 service model.
