Prof. Dr. Swapan Kumar Bhowmik Roy

Prof. Dr. Swapan Kumar Bhowmik Roy is a Professor of Ophthalmology with qualifications that include MBBS, DO (DU), and MS (Eye). Ophthalmology focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the eyes and vision. Eye problems can range from common refractive errors to cataracts, glaucoma, and diseases affecting the retina. A careful examination helps identify the cause of visual difficulties and determine which treatment options may be suitable.

Changes in eyesight can happen gradually, making them easy to overlook. Blurred vision, difficulty reading, trouble seeing at night, or frequent changes in glasses prescription may indicate a need for an eye assessment. Some eye conditions develop without obvious early symptoms, so routine examinations can be useful even when vision seems normal. People with diabetes or a family history of certain eye diseases may need regular monitoring based on medical advice.

Before an eye consultation, patients can gather previous prescriptions, examination reports, and details of any eye drops or medicines they use. Those who have undergone eye surgery should bring relevant records when available. It is helpful to explain when a vision problem started, whether it affects one or both eyes, and if symptoms have changed over time. These details can support a more informed assessment.

Prof. Dr. Swapan Kumar Bhowmik Roy is listed as a Professor of Ophthalmology at the National Institute of Ophthalmology & Hospital (NIOH), Dhaka. Patients seeking eye care can discuss their vision concerns and medical history during a consultation. Following prescribed treatment and attending recommended checkups can help monitor eye health. Sudden loss of vision, severe eye pain, or a new shadow across the field of vision requires urgent medical attention rather than a routine appointment.
