Eye Dept. under the

couple of years. It is providing an extensive service to people in indoor and
outdoor.
Two years back a
project was launched to upgrade this dept. under “strengthening the eye
department” program, which was approved by Govt. of Punjab.
- A new Air
conditioned classroom/ study room has been established
- A new well
furnished library is also there now.
- Fluorescent fundus
angiogram, only the second machine of its type in punjab, is now present in
this department and it costs around Rs. 20 million. FFA is done free of cost
which otherwise costs Rs. 5,000
- Ward, OPD and O.T
are now being monitored by closed circuit cameras.
- Multimedia and
laptops are also provided
- Air conditioning of
ward and O.T has been ensured to maintain an optimum temperature for the
working of machines. UPS has been provided to maintain a constant supply of
electricity
- OPD, OT and ward
have been linked with telephone intercom service and internet
- YAG-Laser, auto
refractometer, A-R Keratometer, orthoptics. These facilities are also
present in the dept. now

with cameras in the machines is present in OPD and OT to make it convenient
for the students to pick findings in patients which were nearly impossible
before
