For the 2026-27 cycle, the official brochure identifies the unit as Ahalia School of Optometry & Research Centre, Palakkad. It lists B.Sc.

Optometry and M.Optom. are affiliated to KUHS, while the diploma is affiliated to the Directorate of Medical Education, Government of Kerala. The brochure states KUHS Research Centre status, SIRO approval, an IACLE resource centre, well-equipped laboratories, and internship at Ahalia's JCI-accredited hospital and regional centres. The institution's 2026-27 brochure states KUHS affiliation for B.Sc. Optometry and M.Optom. and KUHS Research Centre status. The Ahalia Group's 2005 date refers to the broader Ahalia Health, Heritage and Knowledge Village, not necessarily this school, so it is not recorded as the college's establishment year.
