Former Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan was taken from Adiala Jail to Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) at 12.30 midnight today. Imran Khan, who was suffering from Central Retinal Vein Occlusion (CRVO) disease in his right eye, was given the second dose of anti-VEGF injection.
This dose of injection in Imran Khan’s right eye was administered by Dr. Nadeem Qureshi, retina specialist of Al Shifa Eye Hospital, Rawalpindi, and Dr. Muhammad Arif Khan, head of the ophthalmology department of PIMS, in the operation theater of PIMS.
Khan is suffering from high blood pressure
According to the information, Imran Khan has been suffering from high blood pressure since July last year and Pakistan Government PIMS informed that ECG and ECO test was also done before the injection in Imran Khan’s eye, which according to PIMS was found to be normal. However, PIMS did not provide information as to why ECG and ECO test was done to check the heart of Imran Khan when he was to get an injection in his eye today.
Apart from this, Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences also informed that after the injection in Imran Khan’s eye, he was sent back after giving necessary suggestions. In the same month, when Barrister Salman Safdar was appointed amicus curiae by the Pakistani Supreme Court to provide information about the condition of Imran Khan, Salman Safdar informed the court that Imran Khan could see only 15 percent in his right eye.
PTI had demonstrated all over Pakistan
Imran Khan’s party PTI had protested to get him admitted to the hospital from jail, but still the Pakistani government did not get Imran Khan admitted to the hospital and placed before the court on 16 February a new investigation report of PIMS and Al Shifa Eye Hospital, which claimed that Imran Khan’s right eye is improving after the first dose of anti-VEGF injection on 24 January.
