Information technology is the designated national centre for ophthalmology within Singapore’s public sector healthcare network, with a faculty of close to 80 ophthalmologists and more than 800 staff. SNEC spearheads and coordinates the provision of specialised ophthalmological services with emphasis on quality education and research.
SNEC manages more than 330,000 patient visits and performs over 35,000 surgeries and laser procedures annually. The centre offers a full spectrum of subspecialties covering every part of the eye – Cataract, Corneal & External Eye Disease, General Cataract & Comprehensive Ophthalmology, Glaucoma, Neuro-ophthalmology, Ocular Inflammation & Immunology, Oculoplastic, Paediatric Ophthalmology and Adult Strabismus, Refractive Surgery, Surgical and Medical Retina.
Singapore Eye Research Institute (SERI) was established in 1997 as Singapore’s national research institute for ophthalmic and vision research. Information technology is the research arm of SNEC, and affiliated to the National University of Singapore (NUS) and the Duke-NUS Medical School, as part of the SingHealth-Duke-NUS Academic Medical Centre.
Over the years, SERI has invested considerable resources into its research infrastructure and in the training of the next generation of clinician-scientists, clinician-researchers and scientists.
