Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf founder Imran Khan received his fifth intravitreal eye injection at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences on Monday. Doctors declared him clinically stable after a thorough check-up before the procedure.
According to the official statement from PIMS, ophthalmologists examined the 74-year-old former prime minister and found clear signs of clinical improvement. They performed an optical coherence tomography scan which confirmed positive progress in his eye condition. The entire treatment was carried out smoothly as a day-care procedure under microscopic guidance by specialist surgeons.
Hospital officials confirmed that Imran Khan remained vitally stable before, during, and after the injection. He was discharged the same day with detailed instructions for aftercare and future follow-up. This marks the fifth dose in his ongoing treatment series for a serious eye condition diagnosed as central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO).
Imran Khan was brought from Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi for this scheduled follow-up. Earlier, he had received his fourth injection on April 28 at the same facility. Medical experts use these intravitreal injections to manage retinal issues such as vein blockages that can affect vision seriously. The condition is often linked with high blood pressure, diabetes, and other cardiovascular factors.
PIMS authorities did not reveal the exact medication used but emphasized that the procedure was completed without any complications. Sources indicate that patients undergoing such serial injections need regular monitoring to track improvement and decide on further doses.
This latest medical update comes while the PTI founder continues to face legal challenges. His health has remained a major point of concern for his supporters and political circles. The hospital described the visit as routine and successful, giving some relief to those worried about his well-being.
The development highlights the importance of timely medical care even for high-profile prisoners. Fans and party workers continue to pray for Imran Khan’s complete recovery as he receives specialized treatment under judicial oversight.
