Ophthalmology Treatment in India for International Patients
Plan safe, modern eye care and surgery in India with a trusted medical facilitation partner.
VRH Healthcare helps you compare top ophthalmology centres and specialists in Delhi-NCR & Gurugram, understand indicative costs, and coordinate everything—from second opinions to recovery and tele-follow-ups.
How VRH Healthcare Helps
VRH Healthcare is not a hospital. We are a medical facilitation and patient-navigation service connecting you with NABH/JCI-accredited eye units and experienced cataract, cornea, retina, glaucoma, oculoplasty, paediatric and refractive surgeons. We coordinate second opinions, clinician review of your reports and scans, appointments, medical-visa letters, airport transfers, near-hospital stays, interpreters, indicative estimates, and tele-follow-ups so you can decide confidently.

SpecialtyPage.faq.heading
Is FLACS better than standard phaco for cataract?
Both restore clarity; FLACS can aid precision in selected cases. Your surgeon will advise based on eye measurements.
LASIK vs SMILE vs ICL—how do I choose?
Depends on corneal thickness/topography, prescription and lifestyle. Your specialist will recommend the safest option.
How soon can I fly after eye surgery?
Often a few days to 1–2 weeks depending on procedure and healing; your surgeon will confirm fitness-to-fly.
Will I need glasses after premium IOLs?
Toric/multifocal lenses can reduce spectacles for distance and/or near; outcomes vary with eye anatomy.
How many visits will I need after retina or glaucoma surgery?
Typically several visits in the first weeks to optimise drops, pressure and healing; we plan tele-follow-ups where appropriate.
What documents should I bring?
Passport and medical visa, recent eye prescriptions, scans (topography/OCT), prior summaries and medication/allergy lists.
