Eye treatment in India for international patients
Many eye procedures in India are day-care or short-stay operations, so treatment can often fit into a trip of about a week including check-ups.
For cataract surgery, the lens you choose (monofocal, toric or multifocal) makes a big difference to the result and the cost, so each estimate states the lens type.
Eye conditions and procedures
Eye surgeons treat cataract, short- and long-sightedness, astigmatism, keratoconus, glaucoma, squint, diabetic eye disease and retinal detachment. Procedures include:
- Cataract surgery with monofocal, toric or multifocal lens implants
- LASIK, SMILE and other laser vision correction
- Cornea transplant and keratoconus treatment
- Glaucoma surgery
- Retina and vitreous surgery, and injections for macular disease
- Squint correction for children and adults
Choosing an eye hospital
Choose a hospital with a specialist for your condition (cornea, retina, glaucoma or pediatric eye care), and ask which lens or laser platform the surgeon recommends and why.

Frequently asked questions
How soon after eye surgery can I fly?⌄
After cataract surgery or LASIK, many patients can fly within a few days to a week, after a check-up. Retina surgery with a gas bubble needs longer; your surgeon advises.
Am I suitable for LASIK?⌄
It depends on your prescription and corneal thickness. The hospital tests your eyes before confirming whether LASIK, SMILE or another option suits you.
Which cataract lens should I choose?⌄
It depends on your eyes and how you want to see afterwards. Your surgeon explains the options and their costs.
