Multiple sclerosis (MS) can cause optic neuritis, and repeated episodes may lead to lasting optic atrophy and permanent vision changes. While neurology care for MS is available in Pakistan, options specifically targeting the residual optic nerve damage are limited. Optic Atrophy Treatment Center works with Pakistani patients exploring stem cell therapy for the optic nerve component of MS-related vision loss.

Why Pakistani Patients Consider This Option
Once optic atrophy has developed following MS-related optic neuritis, disease-modifying MS therapy does not reverse the existing nerve damage. Patients often look abroad to explore additional options for the vision loss that remains.

How Stem Cell Therapy May Help
Stem cell therapy is studied for its potential to help support optic nerve tissue affected by MS-related optic atrophy. It addresses the vision component only — ongoing MS disease management must continue with your neurologist.
Is This Treatment Right for You?
Suitability depends on the stage and cause of the condition. Before travelling, our team reviews:
01 Genetic or metabolic test results (urine organic acids, OPA3 gene), if available
02 OCT scan and visual field test results
03 Age of onset of vision loss and any movement symptoms
04Current neurology management status, if applicable
What Your Visit Includes
- Remote pre-screening based on reports shared in advance
- In-person evaluation by our ophthalmology and regenerative medicine team
- Diagnostic work-up to confirm disease stage and suitability
- Stem cell therapy administered under medical supervision
- A written follow-up plan your doctor in Pakistan can continue monitoring
- Airport pickup, accommodation assistance, and a dedicated patient coordinator throughout your stay
Travelling from Pakistan — What to Expect
- Visa: India has currently suspended visa services, including medical visas, for Pakistani nationals. This means direct travel from Pakistan to India for treatment is not possible under the present rules. Please contact our team for the latest update, as this position can change.
- Cost guidance: Treatment packages are quoted in USD; approximate Pakistani Rupee (PKR) equivalents are provided on request.
- In the meantime: Our team can carry out a remote review of reports (OCT scan, visual field test, genetic/metabolic results) and provide a written medical opinion, so families have clarity on suitability before any travel becomes possible.
- Language:All consultations and medical reports are provided in English and Urdu.

What Our Patients Say
Bunty Singh
Excellent customer service and straight away got some improvement as my eye points stop hurting when i press them so and still on the healing process. Very experienced doctor and lovely people. Happy with it.
Aneeket Kushwah
I came from overseas specifically for treatment. The staff not only assisted me with transport but also made the whole experience hassle-free. The medical service was of the highest standard and I was very secure in Delhi.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this treat my MS?
“No, our evaluation and treatment address the optic nerve/vision component only. MS itself must continue to be managed by a neurologist.”
Do I need to be in remission to be considered?
” Generally, stable disease activity is preferred. Your neurology reports will help our team assess suitability.”
Can Pakistani patients currently travel to India for this treatment?
“At present, no — India’s visa suspension for Pakistani nationals is still in effect. A remote report review lets you prepare in advance.
