Centro Oftalmológico Hospital-Dia

What Centro Oftalmológico Hospital-Dia does

Centro Oftalmológico Hospital-Dia is a private Brazilian ophthalmology day-hospital founded circa 2000–2001 and headquartered in Cáceres, Mato Grosso, with a secondary unit in Pontes e Lacerda. The facility operates as a full-service ophthalmology hospital-day model organized across 11 clinical departments (cataract, strabismus, cornea, retina, glaucoma, ocular plastics, uveitis, refractive surgery, and pediatric ophthalmology) and runs a three-year Medical Residency Program in Ophthalmology plus a Cataract Fellowship. Technical infrastructure comprises standard ophthalmic diagnostic equipment — Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), corneal topography, optical and ultrasonic biometry, computerized campimetry, retinal mapping, specular microscopy, and surgical microscopes — alongside laser systems for refractive surgery. The institution is led by Diretor Técnico Dr. Odenilson Jose da Silva (CRM/MT 3001).

The company generates revenue through professional services billed primarily via contracted health insurance plans — Unimed, Fusex, Cassi, and the recently added Mato Grosso Saúde — supplemented by SUS (Brazil's public healthcare system) reimbursement and out-of-pocket elective procedures such as laser refractive surgery. Patient segments span the general population for routine and surgical care, school-age children for screening programs, senior patients for age-related conditions (cataracts, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy), and medical residents/fellows as a quasi-educational customer base. The go-to-market is direct, in-person service delivery through the two physical facilities, supported by insurance-network referrals, partnerships with regional health secretariats, Hospital Regional de Cáceres (HRCAF), and community organizations (Instituto Coquinho, Rotary Club, A.C.S.S, Sindicato Rural).

Operational scale is modest: the company reports a 9-employee figure that appears to understate actual clinical headcount given the breadth of the medical staff listed (multiple ophthalmologists across departments, residents, and a COREME coordinator), and no revenue or profitability figures are disclosed. Reported customers in the dataset are payer relationships rather than end-patients, with Mato Grosso Saúde (added 2024) being the most recent channel expansion.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Others

• Alcon (Brazil): Global ophthalmic surgical and IOL supplier with significant Brazil operations. Adjacent infrastructure provider — relevant as a strategic supplier for the center's cataract and refractive surgical lines.
• Carl Zeiss Meditec (Brazil ophthalmic equipment): Supplier of OCT, biometry, surgical microscopes and other ophthalmic diagnostics used by the center. Adjacent ecosystem participant — not a direct competitor but a critical enabler of the service offering.

Direct peers

• Hospital de Olhos de Cuiabá: Ophthalmology-specialty hospital in Cuiabá, Mato Grosso. Closest geographic direct peer, offering cataract, refractive, and retina services to a similar population; competes for the same regional referral pool and SUS/private contracts.
• Instituto Penido Burnier: Long-established Campinas-based ophthalmology institute with cataract, refractive, and cornea specialties. Comparable integrated diagnostic + surgical model and similar multi-decade regional brand presence.
• Visão Laser Hospital de Olhos: Brazilian refractive and cataract-focused ophthalmology hospital. Comparable focus on laser refractive surgery, phakic IOLs, and cataract — directly overlaps with this center's Refração and Catarata departments.
• Sadalla Amin Ghanem Eye Hospital: Joinville (Santa Catarina) based ophthalmology hospital offering a comparable full menu of cataract, refractive, glaucoma, retina, and oculoplastics services with a similar multi-specialty day-hospital structure.

Broad incumbents

• CEMA Hospital Especializado: Large multi-specialty ophthalmology and ENT hospital group headquartered in São Paulo. Comparable service mix (cataract, refractive, cornea, retina) but operates at much greater scale across multiple Brazilian states.
• Hospital Oftalmológico de Brasília (HOB): Specialty eye hospital in Brasília offering comprehensive ophthalmology including cataract, refractive, glaucoma, and retina. Comparable hospital-day model with similar payer mix but in a different regional market.
• Rede D'Or São Luiz: Large Brazilian hospital network with ophthalmology service lines. While not a specialist, competes for the same elective ophthalmology surgical volume through its broad hospital footprint and insurer relationships.

Regional players

• Hospital de Olhos do Paraná: Specialty eye hospital based in Curitiba offering comprehensive ophthalmology services. Similar hospital-day operating model but serves a different regional catchment in southern Brazil.
