Common questions

Before your visit

How do I arrange a consultation?

Please call the centre on +91 98104 19720. Tell the team briefly what is troubling you and they will help you find a time.

What should I bring?

Previous prescriptions and eye reports, your current spectacles and a list of the medicines you take.

What is the difference between a fellowship and an observership?

A fellowship is a period of advanced clinical training. An observership means observing clinical practice at another institution. It is not a degree or a fellowship.
