Ophthalmology or Vision care is a continued care process, largely a preventive care.

As one of the largest eye care players, we had operated over 1000 eyes in March till lockdown, which we are committed to follow-ups and continued care. We had thousands of appointments given to patients across our branches, which were caught off guard without knowing what has to be done for review check-ups, medicine regimens, etc. But rising up to the pandemic crisis management, we had closed all our branches from 22nd of March and offered Online Consultation for our post-operative check ups.

Online consultations have its own limitations and our doctors cannot give a treatment or even suggest proper medicines for an eye ailment. We offered this service as free of any charges during the lockdown. But we received a spate of calls for this and understood that many people required some diagnostics and more detailed evaluation. Many patients needed medicines for Glaucoma, Diabetic Retina and post-surgery medicines. Complying to state governments GO allowing operating emergency eye care, we opened one hospital in Begumpet to service to such needs. This hospital was operating under strict infection control processes. Masks and gloves for all patients was mandatory, there will be entry-level thermal check, hand sterilizing, self-declaration forms and anybody with temperature spikes was sent back or referred to a physician. Only one floor was operational with limited staff and social distancing seating arrangements. Our doctors and staff also were under these protocols like wearing protective suits, glasses, masks, gloves. Our diagnostic equipment had acrylic visors to avoid any close contact. Every equipment was wiped sterile and entire hospital fumigated after the days’ operations.

With this, we were able to learn how to operate under strict infection spread situations, and also we were able to service our patients who were in real need of an emergency intervention. We managed to see many of our critical post-operative patients and give them continued care.

 With this expertise, we had in a much controlled and strict environment, now we are confident that we can operate hospitals for emergency care in limited plan and scope following all safety guidelines for patients, staff and doctors.

 As per the latest directive on lockdown government is permitting emergency services and hence we are now open in Somajiguda, Madhapur, ASR Nagar, Kukatpally, Chandanagar, Vijayawada, and Vizag.

 These hospitals will follow very strict safety standards and infection control protocols. Any surgeries of emergency nature will be operated on specific days. Patients will have to fix a prior appointment to avoid crowding and waiting, they have to come with minimal attendees, wear mask and gloves, and also cooperate in all entry processes like thermal check and self-declaration forms

Maxivision appeals to the public to avail these services only for emergency eye care, post-op care or continued care for Diabetic Retina, Glaucoma, Cornea, etc. Children having any sudden vision loss will also be treated. Old age patients with critical eye ailments will also be treated.

The consultation services will be free for migrants who are struck in town and for police officers and all medical services people like nurses, doctors, paramedics, etc
