Emmetropia is the first center in Crete and one of the few in Greece that was certified as an One Day Clinic (ODC) in the field of Ophthalmology.
This allows specialized centers to perform procedures that do not require hospitalization, thus bypassing the potential risk of in-hospital infections.
For this reason, in many countries of Europe and the United States, even large hospitals connected to Universities, it is common practice to transfer to corresponding One Day Clinics the carrying out of procedures such as cataract surgery, outside the hospital building.
