Uveitis & Ocular Immunology Services.
The Uveitis & Ocular Immunology Service provides a multidisciplinary approach to
the treatment of ocular inflammatory disease and other infectious disorders.
Experts here deal with diagnosis and management of complex infectious and
autoimmune diseases of the eye as well as eye diseases associated with various
other systemic medical disorders. The diagnostics are backed by a well equipped
laboratory, pathology and molecular diagnostic services, and the consultants are
conversant with appropriate intervention techniques. In addition we have the
experience with the latest treatments including the use of immunosuppressive and
immunomodulation for autoimmune eye diseases.

We co-ordinate with the other subspecialities of ophthalmology and
internal medicine efficiently to get the optimal treatment outcomes for patients
with complex Uveitic disorders. Another field of specialization is HIV/AIDS
associated ocular infections wherein we have a combined experience of having
seen over a few thousand HIV/ AIDS cases with ocular complications. We were the
first in the world to have reported the association of serious eye problems with
Chikungunya fever. |
