It was hard to find and there was no signage leading the path. It's said to be opened at 9 am (turns out to be even later) although it was put on as 8 am on the website. I was looking forward to it and got disappointed, most items are still in storage and was never really ready for public since 1997. Too bad. Great idea poorly executed.

It was fun to know about the history of this hospital and about dr. Yap and his family. It's true that there are no sign to catch the museum because its become one with the hospital. You can ask the security. There is an educator who can tell and take you around the museum. There are 3 rooms. First room is containing the equipments that dr. Yap and his son used to treat their patients. Second one is containing the household appliances of dr. Yap's family. The third one is containing picture of his family and him. Also some of their collectibles. I recommend you to ask the educator to take you around the museum. It could be more fun.

Nice eyes museum

So crowded

It's the second place we visited in our program visit museums. This program arranged by the Jogja Museum Lover community. It's my first time visiting this place. It may be quite hard to people who want to visit this museum because it's located at the back of the hospital. The manager of the museum said that she is difficult about her work because she works just by herself. There is no people who help her especially to manage the museums. In other words, she needs the team! It's very good museum. I was just thinking about finding eye medicine equipment. But I was wrong. I got a lot of information about Dr. Yap profile. It's about his childhood, family, education, also find some his books, plants and paintings collection that given by his friends. It's extremely recommended museum to visit!

Inside of this museum is a bunch of tools for eyes checking, generation to generation. You will be guide by someone here, the guide will give you explenation to every tools there.

The medical stuff are well manageable and organize. It is clean and quite, photo and pictures are also available. If it is your first time visit please do ask the officer or the security because the museum is located inside the hospital. You need to walk through the hospital.
