When you are busy, travelling, uncomfortable in your glasses or caring for a child, you want a clear plan—not a vague promise. This guide helps you request the correct eye-care appointment at Vision Concern and reduce avoidable delays.
In Kathmandu and worried about your eyes?
Book an eye exam (NPR 400 ≈ US$3) with our English-speaking optometrists in Lazimpat, Boudha or Makalbari — exams by appointment; optical shops open daily 8 AM – 8:30 PM. Card & cash accepted.
The fastest way to request the right appointment
- Share your location: Lazimpat, Boudha, Thamel, Makalbari, Gokarneshwor or another area.
- Say why you need care: routine eye test, child eye concern, contact-lens fitting, broken glasses, screen strain or urgent symptom.
- Send your prescription: a clear photo of your old prescription, glasses or contact-lens box can save time.
- Give a time window: morning, after work, Saturday or before travel.
- Wait for confirmation: do not assume a slot is reserved until the team confirms it.

Yes. Many visitors, particularly from Bangladesh and West Bengal (Kolkata), come to Nepal for cataract, retina, or other eye surgery at a hospital and also want new glasses, a general eye exam, or contact lenses at the same time, before or after their procedure. Vision Concern is an optical and eye-examination clinic, not a surgical hospital, so we work alongside hospitals such as Tilganga: we are happy to see you for glasses, contact lenses, or a routine check-up either side of your surgical treatment elsewhere.
No conversion is needed. Eyeglass prescriptions from Germany, France, the UK, the USA, China, Russia, and almost every other country use the same international format, SPH (sphere), CYL (cylinder), and AXIS, measured in diopters. Our opticians read this directly, so you can bring your prescription paper, a photo of it on your phone, or simply your current glasses, and we will use the same values. If your prescription is more than a year or two old, we recommend a quick, free re-check before we make your new pair.
Yes. Above roughly 3,000 metres, UV exposure increases sharply because of the thinner atmosphere and reflection off snow, and ordinary sunglasses (category 2-3) do not block enough UV to prevent snow blindness (photokeratitis). We recommend glacier glasses or category-4 sunglasses with side shields, and can fit these with your own prescription if needed. Vision Concern offers ZEISS polarized, UV400-certified sunglasses with prescription lenses, which we can prepare before you set off on your trek.
