Jakarta, ID – Mayapada Eye Centre (MEC) is expanding access to premium eye care services with the opening of its newest clinic at Mayapada Tower 2, Sudirman, South Jakarta. Located in the heart of Jakarta’s central business district, MEC serves as a comprehensive and modern eye care solution, offering subspecialty services including cornea, glaucoma, retina, and pediatric ophthalmology.
President Director & CEO of Mayapada Healthcare, Navin Sonthalia, emphasized that Mayapada Eye Centre is part of the company’s strategic initiative to drive sustainable growth.
“MEC is part of the Mayapada Hospital ecosystem, delivering high-standard eye care that is clinically excellent and connected to various Centers of Excellence across the Mayapada Hospital network. This integrated approach ensures that eye conditions associated with other medical issues can be managed comprehensively,” he said during the inauguration on Wednesday (January 28, 2026).
Meanwhile, Chief Operating Officer of Mayapada Eye Centre, Navin Nathani, explained that the expansion into Sudirman is designed to meet the specific needs of office professionals in Jakarta’s business hub.
“In the daily lives of urban professionals, prolonged exposure to digital screens—from computers, laptops, and smartphones—often leads to complaints such as dry eyes, digital eye strain, and difficulty focusing, which directly impact productivity. Therefore, MEC Sudirman offers advanced, modern, and easily accessible eye care solutions with a premium and integrated service experience, allowing patients to maintain their vision quality without disrupting their daily routines,” he explained.
Supported by a team of experienced ophthalmologists and subspecialists, MEC Sudirman provides comprehensive services, including modern cataract surgery (phacoemulsification), trabeculectomy for glaucoma, and retinal care services.
As part of the Mayapada Healthcare ecosystem, MEC Sudirman is also directly integrated with leading services across the Mayapada Hospital network. This connectivity enables the management of eye conditions related to other medical issues—such as neurological disorders, stroke, diabetes, autoimmune diseases, and heart conditions—through coordinated multidisciplinary collaboration.
This approach ensures patients receive holistic and continuous care, aligned with the needs of urban professionals who demand high-quality and efficient services.
Progressive Eye Diseases and the Importance of Early Detection
According to Consultant Ophthalmologist at Mayapada Eye Centre, dr. Ucok P. Pasaribu, Sp.M(K), many eye diseases are progressive and develop without clear early symptoms, often only being recognized once they interfere with daily activities—especially among office workers with high digital screen exposure.
“Factors such as excessive screen time, insufficient eye rest, and suboptimal workplace lighting can accelerate digital eye strain and other vision problems. With the support of modern diagnostic technology and subspecialist expertise, early detection and precise diagnosis can be achieved, allowing treatment strategies to be tailored to each patient’s needs. This approach enables more targeted and sustainable care while minimizing the risk of permanent vision impairment and long-term complications, particularly among the productive-age population,” he explained.
Advancing Eye Care Through Technology and Innovation
The launch of Mayapada Eye Centre Sudirman was also marked by the LVC (Laser Vision Correction) Summit on January 25, 2026, a scientific forum that brought together leading ophthalmologists and subspecialists to discuss the latest developments, technological innovations, and advanced clinical approaches in vision care.
As part of the event series, a live surgery demonstration of the SMILE® Pro procedure was performed by dr. Zoraya Ariefia Feranthy, Sp.M, reflecting MEC’s commitment to advancing medical education and adopting the latest ophthalmic technologies.
In addition to its location at Mayapada Tower 2, MEC is also available at Mayapada Hospital South Jakarta (MHJS), offering advanced services such as SMILE® Pro, SMILE® Pro Hyperopic, LASIK, PRESBYOND® Laser Blended Vision for refractive error correction, and Corneal Cross-linking (CXL) for corneal strengthening therapy.
