Since its founding in 1964, Gimbel Eye Centre has offered patients outstanding ophthalmic care in a comfortable setting, allowing us to become one of the most reliable and popular eye clinics in the world. Our uniqueness is the result of several factors, all developed with the patient in mind.

Multiple Options for Vision Correction

We offer a full range of corrective options for nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism. With these alternatives you are assured of having the choice of surgery that is most effective and safe for you.

Extensive Experience

Having performed over 165,000 eye surgeries since our establishment in 1964, we are one of the world’s most experienced vision correction centres and have served patients from over 50 countries around 
the world.

All of Gimbel Eye Centre’s surgical outcome information is compiled in our computerized medical records systems. We routinely access this data to monitor 
the safety and effectiveness of our procedures and refine surgical techniques for 
our patients.
