Looking for the best eye specialist in Singapore?
Choosing one is about more than a list of credentials. The best eye specialist is the one who treats your kind of problem most often.
Ultimately the right one is the specialist who makes you feel confident and comfortable sharing your concerns.
At The Straits Eye Centre, we endeavour to be transparent and make our patients feel heard.
- Transparency
- Care for patients
“I provide eye care for my patients as I would for my own family.”
“Experience and skill are the foundation of great eye care, but empathy is what sets us apart.”
What we treat
Not sure which of these fits? Message us on WhatsApp and we will point you to the right doctor or specialist — or see an eye doctor online.
Glaucoma
Damage to the optic nerve, usually linked to raised pressure inside the eye — and not the same as a cataract.
Oculoplastic surgery
Conditions of the eyelids, the orbit and the tear drainage system.
Paediatric eye care
Eye conditions in infants, children and teenagers, including vision screening.
Strabismus and amblyopia
Misaligned eyes and lazy eye, in both children and adults.
Myopia management
Slowing the progression of short-sightedness in children.
Diabetic retinopathy
Changes to the retina caused by diabetes, picked up through regular screening.
General eye care
Routine eye screening and examinations, for adults and children.
Dry eye and refractive errors
Persistent grittiness, burning or watering, and everyday spectacle and contact lens needs.
40
The age to start
When should I get an eye check-up?
A baseline comprehensive eye examination is recommended at the age of 40, even when nothing feels wrong — it is when the early signs of cataract, glaucoma and diabetic changes first become detectable.
| From age 40 | At least once |
|---|---|
| With diabetes | At least once a year |
Come sooner for anything new in between — blurring · glare · floaters · pain or redness.
Your interval may be shorter if you have a family history or an existing eye condition.
An eye screening is quick and almost painless. It takes less than 30 minutes for most.
Starting from $29. View our eye screening package
