Patients can now skip waiting at the pharmacy and avoid the risk of virus transmission. SNEC gives patients the choice to receive both refrigerated and non-refrigerated medication from the convenience of their homes — without any delivery charges. They can opt for this service with five simple steps:
STEP 1: CHECK ELIGIBILITY
- The delivery address is in mainland Singapore or Sentosa (excluding offshore islands and secured areas).
- The existing medication stock can last at least two weeks or until the planned delivery date.
- The original SNEC prescription is submitted to the pharmacy by the patient, doctor or nurse in electronic form.
STEP 2: PLACE ORDER
- Placed via HealthHub, Health Buddy or FormSG. Please call or email only if the above methods are inconvenient.
STEP 3: RECEIVE CONFIRMATION
A confirmation email is sent. The pharmacy staff contacts the patient in case of changes to the requested delivery date or medications.
Delivery Time Slots:
- 10am to 2pm
- 2pm to 6pm
- 6pm to 10pm
Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays and eves of public holidays).
STEP 4: RECEIVE MEDICATIONS
- Medications are delivered within five working days of order confirmation. Please ensure there is a person available to receive the delivery, otherwise re-delivery charges are applicable.
STEP 5: PAY BILL

- Make payment via AXS station/e-Station/m-Station, DBS iBanking, Health Buddy Mobile Pay, Mail Order, or a cheque issued to Singapore National Eye Centre.
