Why Bangalore for Eye Care?
Patient Support and Payment Options
Travelling to another country for eye care is a big decision. At Dr. Solanki Eye Hospital in Malleshwaram, Bangalore, we understand that international patients need more than medical expertise. You need clear communication, seamless logistics, and a team that treats you with genuine care from the moment you reach out.
Whether you are considering cataract surgery, LASIK, retina treatment, glaucoma management, or specialised procedures like oculoplasty and prosthetic eye fitting, our international patient services are designed to support you at every step.
Choosing the right hospital abroad can feel overwhelming. Here is what sets us apart for patients travelling from outside India.
We offer a full spectrum of eye care services, from routine eye exams to complex surgical procedures. Here is an overview of what we treat.
Cataract surgery is one of the most commonly performed eye procedures worldwide. At Dr. Solanki Eye Hospital, we offer advanced phacoemulsification surgery with a choice of premium intraocular lenses, including monofocal, multifocal, and toric lenses. Our surgeons assess your eyes thoroughly and recommend the lens best suited to your vision needs and lifestyle.
If you are looking to reduce your dependence on glasses or contact lenses, we offer bladeless LASIK and implantable collamer lens (ICL) procedures. A detailed pre-operative evaluation determines your suitability, and our team guides you through every step.
Retinal conditions like diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and retinal detachment require timely, expert intervention. Our retina specialists use advanced imaging and surgical techniques to protect and restore your vision wherever possible.
Glaucoma can cause irreversible vision loss if left untreated. We provide comprehensive glaucoma screening, medical management, laser therapy, and surgical options tailored to the severity and type of your condition.
From corneal infections and scarring to corneal transplant surgery, our cornea specialists handle a wide range of conditions. Timely treatment is essential, and we work to ensure international patients can access urgent cornea care without unnecessary delays.
Oculoplasty involves corrective and reconstructive surgery around the eye. This includes treatment for drooping eyelids (ptosis), eyelid malpositions, blocked tear ducts, orbital fractures, and eyelid tumours. We also perform cosmetic blepharoplasty. Treatment may involve medication, laser therapy, or surgery, depending on the condition.
Children travelling with families for eye care receive gentle, specialised treatment. We manage childhood eye conditions including squint (strabismus), lazy eye, and refractive errors using age-appropriate approaches and a reassuring environment.
Losing an eye to injury, disease, or surgery can be emotionally difficult. Our prosthetic eye services offer custom-made artificial eyes designed to match your natural eye in size, shape, and colour. A prosthetic eye helps maintain the socket shape, prevents tissue changes, and restores a natural, symmetrical appearance. Follow-up adjustments ensure a precise, personalised result.
Our optometry department provides comprehensive eye examinations, prescription updates, and contact lens fitting. If you have received a diagnosis elsewhere and want a fresh perspective, our specialists also offer thorough second opinion consultations.
We have simplified the process so you know exactly what to expect at each stage.
