General Ophthalmology

What is General Ophthalmology?

Let’s be honest, most people only think about their eyes when something goes wrong. Maybe you’re squinting to read text messages, waking up with itchy eyes, or noticing that street signs have started to blur. That’s where General Ophthalmology comes in.
At Vasu Eye Institute & Skin Centre, General Ophthalmology is the backbone of our eye care services. It covers everything from routine eye check-ups to managing early signs of more complex conditions. It’s not just about writing a glasses prescription, it’s about understanding your lifestyle, your visual habits, and even your hidden concerns. We treat the common, the not-so-common, and everything in between, with the attention and kindness every eye deserves.

Conditions We Treat

Eyes may be small, but they can have a big list of complaints. Here are some of the most common concerns we handle every day:

  • Blurry or double vision
  • Dry eyes, watering, and foreign body sensation
  • Redness, itching, and irritation
  • Conjunctivitis (eye flu) and other infections
  • Styes, eyelid swelling, or twitching
  • Headaches due to eye strain or glasses issues
  • Refractive errors like myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism
  • Eye fatigue from screen overuse (especially common now!)
  • Age-related vision changes
  • Routine screening for cataract, glaucoma, and diabetes-related eye issues

Each of these may sound simple—but they affect how you work, drive, read, and live. That’s why we treat even the “small” things with full attention.

Who is it for?

n one word, everyone.Kids, students, working professionals, homemakers, seniors… eye problems don’t discriminate. If your vision feels “not quite right,” if you’re experiencing discomfort, or if it’s just been too long since your last check-up, this page is for you.
Children may struggle with undiagnosed vision problems that affect learning. Adults often ignore eye strain caused by long hours on phones and laptops. And older adults? They sometimes think fading vision is “just part of aging.” (Spoiler: it’s not. Most of it is treatable!)General Ophthalmology is the ideal starting point for all ages and stages.

Our Approach

At Vasu, we approach general eye care with a mix of old-school compassion and modern-day precision. Here’s what you can expect when you visit us:

  1. We listen first.
    Not just to your symptoms, but to your story. How long has it been bothering you? What does your day look like? How do your eyes feel by evening? These small details matter to us.
  2. We examine thoroughly.
    Using advanced diagnostics, like slit-lamp exams, refraction tests, fundus evaluation, and more, we get to the root of the problem.
  3. We explain everything.
    In simple words. No confusing jargon. We’ll walk you through your diagnosis and give you a treatment plan that makes sense.
  4. We guide you if more is needed.
    If you need further care, like retina evaluation, cataract surgery, or glaucoma management, we’ll connect you with the right specialist inside our own centre. You don’t have to run around.

This isn’t “just a check-up.” It’s complete eye care from a team that treats you like a person, not just a case file.

Why Choose Vasu?

  • Experienced doctors with a patient-first mindset
  • Latest diagnostic tools to catch problems early
  • Integrated super-specialty care all under one roof
  • Friendly atmosphere that makes eye exams less scary
  • Affordable options and charitable support if needed
  • Long-standing trust in Bathinda and across the Malwa region

And most importantly, because we actually care. That’s not just a tagline here. It’s how we’ve built our name, one patient at a time.

You don’t have to wait for an emergency to see an eye doctor. If something feels different with your eyes, or even if everything feels “fine”, getting them checked can save you a lot of trouble later.
At Vasu, our General Ophthalmology team is here to catch the small things early, treat the tricky ones right, and keep your vision healthy for the long run. Come visit us for a routine check-up or even just to ask a few questions. We promise you’ll walk out with more clarity, comfort, and peace of mind.
