SHINOZUKA Eye Clinic
SHINOZUKA Eye Clinic is a neighborhood ophthalmology clinic in Inagi City, on the southwestern edge of Tokyo. It’s close to Yanoguchi Station on the Nambu Line — not central, but easy enough to reach if you’re already in that part of the city or Kawasaki area.
They cover the standard ophthalmology range: vision checks, glaucoma, cataracts, dry eye, and general eye disease. The clinic has some English content on its website, which suggests they’re at least aware that non-Japanese patients exist — but don’t assume fluent English staff are waiting for you. Full English service is unconfirmed.
For expats, this is probably a solid local option if you live nearby and your Japanese is functional, or if you’re comfortable using a translation app. If you need a fully English-speaking ophthalmologist and are willing to travel, central Tokyo clinics may serve you better. But if Inagi is your neighborhood, this is worth knowing about.
Patient Feedback
Patient feedback points to a competent, no-frills neighborhood eye clinic. Locals mention thorough exams and a straightforward approach from the doctor — not rushed, but not a long wait either for a smaller suburban clinic. It has the feel of a community practice where regulars are recognized. Don’t expect a lot of hand-holding or extra explanation unprompted, but questions seem to get answered directly.
English Language Proficiency
For translating forms, prescriptions, or discharge summaries, Jozu is worth having on your phone.
