The Singapore National Eye Centre (SNEC) Pharmacy is an integral part of SNEC's comprehensive eye care services. Its primary function is dispensing prescription and over-the-counter eye medications, but its services extend far beyond this. The pharmacy offers expert medication counselling, where pharmacists provide advice on proper use, potential side effects, and storage of eye medications.
The pharmacy stocks a wide range of dry eye treatments and eye care accessories, including artificial tears, eye patches, shields, and contact lens solutions. This extensive selection ensures that patients have access to the products they need for various eye conditions and care routines.
To enhance patient experience, they facilitate medication refills and offer home delivery for certain prescriptions. This service is particularly beneficial for patients with chronic eye conditions who require regular medication.
Patient education is a key focus, with pharmacists readily providing information on eye health and medication management. This empowers patients to take an active role in their ocular well-being.
Importantly, SNEC pharmacists work collaboratively with other healthcare professionals in SNEC to provide optimal care for eye patients. This interdisciplinary approach ensures comprehensive and coordinated treatment plans.
By combining medication provision, expert counselling, a comprehensive product range, patient education, and collaborative care, the SNEC Pharmacy plays a crucial role in supporting patients throughout their eye care journey, contributing significantly to the high-quality care delivered at SNEC.
