Islamabad, February 24, 2026 — Former Prime Minister of Pakistan, Imran Khan, was taken from Central Jail Adiala to the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) for a scheduled medical evaluation and ophthalmic treatment, hospital officials confirmed on Monday.
According to the hospital administration, Khan was brought in for a follow-up examination and to receive the second dose of an anti-VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) injection in his eye as part of an ongoing treatment plan.
Prior to the procedure, a board of specialist doctors conducted a comprehensive medical assessment. The evaluation included cardiac tests such as an electrocardiogram (ECG) and echocardiogram (ECHO), both of which returned normal results.
Hospital authorities stated that Khan was found to be medically stable. The eye procedure was carried out as a day-care intervention under standard precautionary protocols. Officials added that his condition remained stable before, during, and after the procedure.
Following the completion of the treatment and necessary post-procedure instructions, Khan was transferred back to Central Jail Adiala.
This is not the first time Khan has been moved to a medical facility for treatment during his incarceration. He had previously received an eye injection after being shifted from jail under similar arrangements.
Separately, in compliance with directives from the Supreme Court of Pakistan, his legal counsel, Salman Safdar, had met with Khan and submitted a health-related report to the court. A medical board constituted under court orders had also conducted an examination of the former premier at the jail premises earlier.
Imran Khan, who served as Pakistan’s prime minister from 2018 to 2022, has been incarcerated at Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi in connection with multiple legal cases. His health has remained a subject of political and legal attention amid ongoing proceedings.
Further updates are awaited.
