The unit provides services for effective diagnosis, treatment and also research in Vitreoretinal diseases, Glaucoma, Uvea and Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP)  

The unit has contributed considerably in the field of vitreoretinal diseases, especially diabetic retinopathy, vein occlusions, central serous retinopathy, age related macular degeneration, ROP, trauma etc. With a huge range of latest investigative and treatment tools like microperimetry, wide-field digital fundus angiography, Spectralis OCT, OCT Angiography, video angiography, high resolution ocular coherence tomography, lasers, photodynamic therapy, PASCAL laser, MFERG etc, the unit continues to provide excellent ophthalmic care to patients.  

The unit is engaged in cutting edge modern vitreoretinal surgery with the use of wide angle viewing systems, 23G/25G/27G small gauge sutureless vitrectomy, modern surgical microscopes and other advanced vitreoretinal surgery equipment that have revolutionised surgery techniques and have outcomes comparable to best in the world. We operate on complex retinal detachments, tractional retinal detachments, giant retinal tears and macular disorders with high quality surgery and excellent outcomes. 

The unit is an apex referral center for screening, laser treatment and surgery of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), an important cause of childhood blindness in premature babies. We now have a dedicated Paediatric high dependency unit (HDU) manned by SR Paediatrics to provide pre and post operative support.

 Active research is ongoing on stem cells for use in retinal degenerative diseases and macular hole surgery. The unit also actively engages in collaborating with ocular pharmacology and ocular biochemistry to study various retinal diseases in animal models.

 The glaucoma faculty and senior residents cater to Adult and Paediatric glaucoma cases. Their research encompasses novel surgical techniques, Imaging in glaucoma to Glaucoma genetics. Apart from conventional trabeculectomy and glaucoma drainage devices , the unit offers modern surgical procedures like angle surgeries namely goniotomy, BANG (bent ab interno needle goniectomy) and GATT(Gonioscopy assisted transluminal trabeculotomy). Laser procedures like YAG iridotomy, iridoplasty, Selective laser trabeculoplasty, Endocyclophotocoagulation, Diode laser cyclophotocoagulation, Micropulse are done routinely.

 They have published new surgical techniques in managing complex cases of Malignant glaucoma.The unit faculty and senior residents are devoted to good long term patient care. The faculty have published their 2 decades of experience in managing  children with Congenital glaucomas.
