Abstract
There are many issues related to ophthalmic community, to our trainees and patients. Are these persons getting the best from us? We must ponder on these issues and try to solve them. Ophthalmic state of affairs in Pakistan needs prompt attention.
Patient’s expectation for proper treatment for their ailment at reasonable cost in private sector is their right. Patients pay handsome amount under the head of various treatment modalities like Anti VEGF / laser, different types of intra ocular lenses and for varying investigations such as OCT / FFA. Concept of quality practices should be propagated among all of us. Now Ophthalmology is evidence based1 and some uniformity in the treatment should be sought out for keeping socio-economic affordability of patient and nation.
