Patients can call at 18002002211 for eye-related ‘Black Fungus’ issues
LV Prasad Eye Institute has introduced a hotline number – 18002002211 for treatment of Mucormycosis. People can call any time on this number between 9 am to 6 pm from Monday to Saturday for any queries regarding Mucormycosis.
In Telangana, LVPEI has a quaternary eye care centre and three city centres at Hyderabad. We also have secondary centres across Adilabad, Bhadradri Kothagudem, Nagarkurnool, Nirmal, Rangareddy, Kothur and Siddipet. In cases where immediate care is needed, our counsellors will share with the caller the contact address of the nearest LVPEI Centre in their vicinity. For the benefit of patients who cannot travel, we are even offering teleconsultation services. The information was shared by Dr Tarjani Vivek Dave, Oculoplasty Surgeon, LV Prasad Eye Institute.
