Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan was transferred from Adiala Jail to the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) in Islamabad for an eye procedure during the night of November 10 and 11, 2026.
The unexpected hospital visit has brought renewed attention to the health of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder, who has been receiving treatment for an ongoing eye condition.
According to hospital officials, the former prime minister was brought to PIMS on the recommendation of his treating ophthalmologist. The visit was arranged for a medical examination and follow-up eye treatment.
Before the procedure, doctors conducted a detailed medical assessment, including an examination of his eyes. Hospital authorities confirmed that his vital signs were normal and his overall physical condition was stable.
Following the necessary medical checks and informed consent, a team of ophthalmologists administered an intravitreal anti-VEGF injection. The treatment involves injecting medication into the eye to address certain retinal conditions, including abnormal blood vessel activity and swelling.
Officials confirmed that Imran Khan remained clinically stable before, during and after the procedure. No immediate complications were reported.
The former prime minister was discharged from the hospital at approximately 2:30 am on Wednesday, with instructions regarding further care and medical follow-up.
The latest procedure follows earlier treatment for a retinal vein blockage affecting his right eye. His eye condition has previously raised concerns among his supporters and political associates.
Doctors have not publicly disclosed a detailed long-term recovery assessment following the latest treatment.
For now, the hospital’s medical update confirms that the procedure was completed and Khan remained stable throughout his visit.
