Bile Syndrome Eye Disease (CBASD) Treatment in Pakistan

Bile Syndrome Eye Disease (CBASD) is a rare inherited metabolic condition that can affect the optic nerve alongside other neurological and systemic features. Because it is so rare, specialized metabolic and neuro-ophthalmology evaluation is difficult to access within Pakistan. Optic Atrophy Treatment Center works with Pakistani families exploring stem cell therapy for the optic nerve component of this condition.

    Why Pakistani Patients Consider This Option

    Confirming a diagnosis of this rare condition typically requires specialized metabolic testing and genetic analysis that is not routinely available in Pakistan. Families often look abroad for both diagnostic clarity and to explore treatment options for the optic nerve damage.

    How Stem Cell Therapy May Help

    Stem cell therapy is studied for its potential to help support optic nerve tissue affected by this condition. It addresses the vision component only — other systemic features should continue to be managed by the relevant specialists.

    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.

    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.

    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

    Is this a common condition?

    “No, it is extremely rare, which is why specialized evaluation is hard to access locally.”

    What reports should I send before travelling?

    “OCT scan, visual field test, and any metabolic/genetic test results, along with a summary of when symptoms began.”

    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.”
