For fifty-six years, the Espaillat Cabral Institute has left an indelible mark on the health sector, specifically in the field of ophthalmology, by carrying the torch and leading the way in the provision of services in this branch of medicine in the Dominican Republic. Innovation and the latest advances in ophthalmologic medical technology have been an unstoppable constant at the Institute throughout its history.
We have a complete and innovative center for ophthalmologic diagnostic studies and we offer consultation services for all subspecialties:
Contact lenses are an excellent alternative to traditional glasses, but not all are the same or cared for in the same way. Choosing the right type and maintaining good hygiene habits is key to avoiding infections and discomfort.
With the heat, dust in the air, and changes in routine, it's normal for your eyes to feel more irritated, dry, or sensitive.
Children’s visual health is essential for their development. Seeing well not only affects how they perceive the world, but also their learning, coordination, and confidence. However, many vision problems can go unnoticed if they are not detected in time.
Sleeping with contact lenses is more common than many people think. Sometimes it happens due to carelessness, fatigue, or simply because the person forgets to remove them before going to bed. However, doing this frequently can pose a significant risk to eye health.
When elevated intraocular pressure is detected during an eye exam, many people immediately think of glaucoma. However, having high eye pressure does not always mean that a person has glaucoma.
Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that primarily affects memory and other cognitive functions. However, there is increasing evidence that it also significantly impacts the visual system. These changes are not always due to primary eye diseases, but rather to alterations in the areas of the brain responsible for visual processing.

“I came to the Espaillat Institute on the recommendation of a friend. And although I was surprised by how technologically advanced this medical space is, what filled me the most was the way in which each person on the team treats their patients. From the person who greets you at the door, to Dr. Espaillat himself, they make you feel important.

"About half a year ago, I began to feel that my right eye had a cataract. Dr. Espaillat performed the surgery on me approximately four months ago and it has been a great experience. Really when you arrive at the Institute you feel that in every exam, at every moment "They are professionals who take care of you and take you every step of the way."
Cataract surgery patient
I was referred to “The Instituto Espaillat Cabral “in Santo Domingo in 2018,to do an operation on my right eye. The operation was very successful. Dr. Arnaldo Espaillat did a fantastic job on my right eye. Before my operation, I could not read a book. Now I can read a book without reading glasses. I returned a second time for a check -up, which went very well also.
My experience at the clinic was very positive. I was well received and all the workers were very pleasant and welcoming.
