Pediatric Ophthalmology at Tenzin Hospital: Expert Eye Care for Your Little Ones
Children’s eyes are delicate and need special care. At Tenzin Hospital, our Pediatric Ophthalmology department in Shimla focuses on diagnosing and treating eye problems in infants, toddlers, children, and teenagers. We understand that children cannot always explain their vision issues clearly, which is why our specialists use child-friendly methods to check eye health properly.

Common Pediatric Eye Conditions We Treat
What is Pediatric Ophthalmology?
Eye problems in children are increasing day by day. Long hours on mobile phones, online classes, television, and less outdoor play are common reasons. Apart from this, some children are born with eye conditions which may not be visible at an early stage.
Pediatric Ophthalmology is related only to children’s eye care. It deals with checking eyesight, eye movement, eye position, and overall eye health. If problems are detected on time, treatment becomes easier and more effective.
At Tenzin Hospital, we take enough time during eye checkups so that the child feels relaxed and parents clearly understand the condition.
Our Pediatric Ophthalmology Services
We offer complete pediatric eye care under one roof, making it easier for parents to get the right treatment for their children.
Pediatric Eye Examination
Comprehensive eye exams to check vision, eye alignment, focusing ability, and eye health, even for infants and non-verbal children.
Treatment for Squint (Strabismus)
We diagnose and treat squint eye problems using glasses, eye patching, vision therapy, or surgery if required.
Lazy Eye (Amblyopia) Management
If one eye has better focus than the other, the brain may start to ignore the weaker eye. This is called a “Lazy Eye.” We specialize in patching therapies and medical treatments to strengthen your child’s vision.
Spectacles for Children
If a child needs vision correction, our optician helps in selecting suitable spectacles that are comfortable and easy to wear.
Blue Cut Glass
Children today spend a lot of time on screens. Blue cut glass lenses help reduce eye strain caused by mobile phones and computers.
Blocked Tear Duct Treatment
Many infants suffer from constant watery eyes due to blocked tear ducts. We provide expert “probing” procedures and medical management to resolve this common newborn issue.
