Guided by its vision to provide responsive, comprehensive, excellent, and affordable eye care, the Department of Ophthalmology of the Rizal Medical Center offers a wide array of eye health services that cater to patients who seek solutions for different eye concerns. The department boasts of its own Eye Training and Facilities Center (ETFC) to provide a comprehensive patient-care program supported by the following ophthalmologic subspecialties: Cataract, Glaucoma, Neuro-Ophthalmology, Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, External Disease & Cornea, Uveitis & Ocular Inflammation, Retina & Vitreous, Oculoplastics, Lacrimal, Orbit and Reconstructive Surgery, Ocular Pathology, and Ocular Oncology. In addition, the ETFC houses top-of-the line ophthalmic diagnostic and laser equipment, as well as its own operating room dedicated solely for ophthalmic surgeries. This makes consulting at the Department of Ophthalmology ETFC a convenient, satisfying, and pleasurable experience.
Aside from patient service, the Department of Ophthalmology also aims to provide optimal clinical training in the science and art of Ophthalmology, combining the cultivation of cognitive, clinical, and surgical skills, while stimulating the spirit of service and research. The residency and fellowship programs offered by the department provide each aspiring Ophthalmologist an opportunity to learn through practice while being guided by some of the best Ophthalmologists in the country. This ensures that the bright legacy started in the 1940’s by Rizal Medical Center’s forefathers will continue to shine by producing excellent, compassionate, and ethical Ophthalmologists with the heart to serve, wherever they may be.
