Weng O. Chan is an Ophthalmologist based in Woodville South, SA. The practice is located at 28 Woodville Rd, Woodville South, SA 5011, Australia.
Chan looks after people with eye conditions that can affect both vision and day-to-day comfort. In many cases, the problems start quietly and then get worse over time, so it helps to have someone who can assess what’s going on and help plan the next steps.
Eye care needs vary a lot, from age-related changes to longer-term conditions. Chan’s clinic work includes looking after retinal problems such as retinal detachment, diabetic retinopathy, and age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). At times, people also come in with conditions like uveitis and vasculitis, where the eye can become inflamed and treatment needs to be handled carefully.
There’s also care for conditions linked to the body’s hormone and immune changes. This can include thyroid eye disease linked to Graves disease and other thyroid-related eye symptoms. Chan also helps manage things like blocked tear ducts, and cataract removal when lenses become cloudy and vision is affected.
Surgical and procedure-based care is part of the picture too. Chan performs vitrectomy for suitable cases, and works through the options when someone’s vision or eye health needs more direct treatment. Other conditions treated in the clinic include retinitis pigmentosa and late-onset retinal degeneration, as well as issues like ear barotrauma that can affect the eye area.
Overall, the approach is practical and focused on the problem in front of you. Whether the concern is sudden, slowly worsening, or connected to a wider health condition, Chan works to get the right diagnosis and guide the treatment plan from there.
