- Imran Khan received eye surgery at PIMS Hospital Islamabad.
- Hospital confirms second dose of intravitreal injection was administered.
- PTI rejects brief report and demands full medical transparency.
Specialized Medical Procedure
According to PIMS hospital administration, the former Prime Minister received the second dose of an intravitreal injection. The procedure was carried out as a day-care surgery, designed to manage ocular issues through targeted medication. Medical staff monitored the patient during the administration of the dose before finalizing the process. The hospital confirmed that the procedure was concluded within the established clinical protocols for such specialized treatments.
PTI Rejects Hospital Statement
Shortly after the hospital’s press release, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf expressed significant dissatisfaction with the information provided. The party confirmed that while Imran Khan was indeed brought to the hospital for the second dose of his eye treatment, the official explanation was considered insufficient. PTI leadership highlighted that the day-care surgery was performed based on consent but argued that the communication lacked necessary depth and professional rigor.
Demands for Medical Transparency
In a strongly worded statement, PTI asserted that a mere two-line summary of a medical procedure cannot serve as a substitute for a comprehensive and independently verified medical report. The party emphasized that given Imran Khan’s status as a high-profile detainee, the state has an obligation to ensure complete transparency regarding his health. They demanded that his personal physicians and family members be granted immediate access to evaluate his condition firsthand.
Concerns Over Medical Secrecy
The political party further criticized the perceived ambiguity and secrecy surrounding the former Prime Minister’s healthcare. According to PTI, the lack of detailed disclosures is contributing to growing public anxiety across the country. They warned that the current approach undermines confidence in the transparency of the medical process and urged the authorities to prioritize factual clarity over brief press releases that raise more questions than they answer.
Call for Independent Verification
As the situation develops, the demand for an independent medical board or the inclusion of private doctors remains a central point of contention between the opposition and the hospital administration. PTI maintains that until a verified report is shared with the family, the health of their leader will remain a matter of grave concern for his supporters. The party has called for an end to the opaque handling of medical records for the incarcerated leader.
