Former prime minister and PTI founder Imran Khan was brought to the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (Pims) on Wednesday for tests and follow-up treatment for his eye condition, a hospital official confirmed.

“Imran Ahmed Khan Niazi was brought from Adiala jail in Rawalpindi to the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (Pims) in Islamabad during the night between November 10 and 11, 2026, for a medical check-up and follow-up eye treatment on the advice of his treating ophthalmologist,” a Pims official said.

The hospital official added that, prior to the procedure, the former premier underwent a medical examination, including an ocular assessment.

“His vital parameters were found to be normal. He was clinically stable, and his general physical examination was unremarkable. After obtaining informed consent and following standard monitoring procedures, precautionary measures and clinical protocols, the ophthalmology team administered an intravitreal anti-VEGF injection,” the official said.

“He remained clinically stable before, during and after the procedure. He was discharged at around 2:30am with the necessary instructions for further care and follow-up,” he said.
