Answers to questions we are often asked. For anything specific to your eyes, please book a consultation.

Call or WhatsApp us on +91 92748 67875, or use our contact page. We will offer the earliest suitable slot at the location convenient for you. No referral is needed.
Do I need a referral to visit?
No. You can book a comprehensive eye checkup or a consultation for a specific concern directly.
When is cataract surgery needed?
When a cataract has progressed enough to affect daily activities such as reading, driving or recognising faces. The decision is individual and made together with your surgeon.
Am I suitable for LASIK?
LASIK suitability depends on your age, prescription stability, corneal thickness and eye health. A detailed assessment is needed before any laser vision correction.
How often should I have an eye checkup?
Many adults benefit from a comprehensive eye examination every one to two years, and more often if you have diabetes, high eye pressure, or a family history of eye disease. Children should be checked if there are any signs of difficulty.
What are the warning signs of a serious eye problem?
Sudden loss of vision, an eye injury, a chemical splash, severe eye pain, or a sudden shower of new floaters or flashes should be assessed urgently. Call us first on +91 92748 67875.
Will I always need glasses after eye surgery?
It depends on the procedure and the lens or correction chosen. Some patients reduce their dependence on glasses; others still need them for certain tasks. We set realistic expectations beforehand.
