Divya Prabha had a small beginning as an Eye Clinic in 1998. Surgeries were performed at a nearby multi speciality hospital. Work on the new hospital building and Operation Theatre Complex was started in 1999. Mr. Subramaniya Iyer, former Chief Engineer PWD, was the person chosen to plan, coordinate and execute the project. The theatre complex was inagurated in March 2001 by Mrs. Vijayamma Gangadharan, founder chairman of Divya Prabha Medical Trust. The theatre complex was designed with a sterile air corridor with separate theatres for Cataract and Glaucoma surgeries, emergency surgeries and septic procedures. The theatres are equipped with UV lamps, fumigators, water and air purifiers for added safety.
