About Paediatric Eye & Adult Strabismus SNEC
Paediatric Eye & Adult Strabismus SNEC is a specialist eye clinic located at Mount Alvernia Hospital, serving patients islandwide with a focus on children's eye conditions and strabismus (squint) management in both paediatric and adult populations. The clinic holds a 4.9-star rating across 69 Google reviews, a moderately robust sample that suggests consistent patient satisfaction. Pricing is positioned in the mid-to-upper range ($$) for private specialist care; specific consultation fees are not publicly listed and should be confirmed directly with the clinic.
The typical patient pathway begins with a first specialist consultation, which covers visual acuity testing, cycloplegic refraction, and a dilated fundus examination where indicated. For children, the clinic assesses conditions such as amblyopia (lazy eye), refractive errors, congenital cataracts, ptosis, and strabismus, with treatment plans ranging from spectacle correction and occlusion therapy to surgical intervention. Parents should bring any existing spectacle prescriptions, previous eye reports, and the child's vaccination and developmental records. The clinic's SMC-registered specialist accreditation in ophthalmology is the relevant credential to confirm. For planned surgical procedures, the clinic should provide a written financial counselling estimate itemising insurance, MediSave, and out-of-pocket portions before any commitment; Integrated Shield Plan pre-authorisation and a Letter of Guarantee from your insurer should be arranged in advance.
Contact the clinic by phone or through the online enquiry form on their website to request a first appointment and confirm current consultation fees, waiting times, and insurance pre-authorisation requirements.

Dr. Cheryl Ngo is an incredible doctor. We started going to her clinic a year ago for my daughter's eye treatment. The whole experience has been very pleasant, and she has handled my daughter well. She is very gentle, approachable, and patiently listens to all of our concerns. We recently got the surgery done after trying other methods. We are glad that the surgery went well under her care. The post-surgery care experience was also great, she was always helpful and was replying to our concerns even on holidays. All the staff is also very helpful and responsive. Thanks once again, Dr. Cheryl and team.

I am truly blessed to be recommended by a skin specialist who is seeing my daughter for her extensive ezcema. My daughter had cataract on both eyes due to long steroid use in her previous treatment and only God knows how anxious we are when she suddenly complains of blurred vision and cloudiness in her eyesight. Dr Cheryl Ngo addressed our concerns & anxiety with high level of professionalism and care. She is truly empathetic and caring and arranged for urgent surgery for my daughter. Dr Cheryl Ngo is God sent. To my daughter she is an angel. Dr Cheryl is one of the kindest & most patient doctor we have ever known. Thank you Dr Cheryl ❤️We are also thankful to Valerie, for her awesome support, she is so gentle and so assuring and knowledgeable when carrying out eye tests. She is truly an asset to the clinic. I would strongly recommend Ace Clinic to my friends and family.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Paediatric Eye & Adult Strabismus SNEC charge?›
Specific fees are not publicly listed, so confirm directly with the clinic before attending. As a general guide, private specialist ophthalmology first consultations in Singapore typically run S$120–250, with follow-up visits at S$80–180. Investigations billed on top may include visual field testing, OCT scans (S$80–200), or orthoptic assessments. Day surgery for strabismus correction or squint repair typically ranges from S$3,000 to S$10,000+ depending on complexity, anaesthetic type, and hospital class of stay. GST applies to private medical services. For any planned procedure, the clinic should issue a written financial counselling estimate that splits the insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket portions. Paediatric strabismus surgery may qualify for MediSave claims and Integrated Shield Plan coverage — confirm pre-authorisation with your insurer before the procedure date.

Is Paediatric Eye & Adult Strabismus SNEC MOH-licensed and how do I verify the doctor?›
No MOH Healthcare Services Licence or Singapore Medical Council (SMC) registration details are listed in the available provider data. Before booking, verify the clinic's MOH Healthcare Services Licence on the MOH licensee directory, and confirm the consulting specialist's SMC registration at smc.gov.sg — search by name to check registration status, specialist accreditation in Ophthalmology, and any disciplinary history. For surgical eye procedures, a Royal College of Ophthalmologists fellowship (FRCOphth) or an Academy of Medicine Singapore fellowship (FAMS) in Ophthalmology is the meaningful additional credential. The clinic is located within Mount Alvernia Hospital, a JCI-accredited private hospital, which provides a degree of institutional governance. That said, the absence of publicly listed licence details means you should confirm both the clinic's MOH licence and the named doctor's SMC entry before your first appointment.
How do I use MediSave or insurance at Paediatric Eye & Adult Strabismus SNEC?›
Integrated Shield Plans (IPs) layered on MediShield Life typically cover specialist consultations, investigations, and planned surgery at private hospitals subject to the plan's deductible, co-insurance, and rider rules. For strabismus surgery or other planned eye procedures, contact your IP insurer to arrange pre-authorisation and request a Letter of Guarantee before the procedure date — this avoids claim disputes after the bill is issued. MediSave can be used for selected outpatient specialist visits under the MediSave 500/700 withdrawal limits and for approved day-surgery procedures. For children, the parent's or guardian's MediSave account may be used. Request a financial counselling session at the clinic before committing to any procedure — a written estimate that clearly splits the insurance payout, MediSave deduction, and out-of-pocket portions is standard practice at private specialist clinics and prevents billing surprises.
