Respectable experts, please pay attention towards a important matter related with medical field & connected with vital organ in human body known as EYE :
As per medical standards of Eye Banking in India, Govt. of India established a body to control blindness known as National Programme for Control of Blindness ( NPCB ), to control blindness eye banks has been established which are guided by NPCB through Medical Standards of Eye banking....." The Medical Director (MD) must be an Ophthalmologist who has completed a corneal fellowship or who has demonstrated expertise in external eye disease, corneal surgery, research or teaching in cornea and/or external disease or has an experience in corneal transplantation. If the eye bank does not have such a person it should have a consulting relationship with an ophthalmologist who satisfies the above criteria.
All policies and procedures of each eye bank shall be under the supervision of the MD. " mentioned under head of Medical Director/ Eye bank Incharge.
Now my questiona are mentioned below :
1= Can private hospital deprive a cornea expert ( having fellowship of cornea, eligible for Medical director of Eye Bank ) associated with hospital but not associated with eye bank of that hospital & forcing eye bank to run under a officer-in-charge (opthalmologist but not a cornea expert )but not running under cornea expert.
2= Is it not violation of human rights/contitutional right to get treatment by a expert of specific field whether for diagnosis of cornea disease or cornea transplant .
3= When a cornea expert ( having fellowship in cornea ) is associated with hospital, hospital has right whether appoint a expert as a medical director of eye bank or not & has privilege to run eye bank under a officer-in-charge who is expertise in another segment of eye.
4= is there any legal bounding as per present situation when cornea operations & diagnosis of cornea disease are not treated by cornea expert of that hospital for vested interest. It is matter of human life.
5= Can a court case be filed against such hospital in public interest or not.
6= Is it a case of Public interest litigation.
It is matter of human life, i m not expert of human rights & constitutional rights of Indian nation people, so please advice for needy people for getting treatment.
