A routine eye examination is the easiest way to protect vision and catch problems early. At Shantanu Netralaya, every full check-up covers the whole eye — front to back — and ends with a plain-language explanation of what we found and what (if anything) needs follow-up. If you have been searching for an ‘eye check up near me’ or ‘eye specialist in Varanasi’, this page is for you.

What is included in a comprehensive eye exam

Vision testing for distance and near · glasses / contact lens power update · slit-lamp examination of cornea, iris and lens · intra-ocular pressure measurement (glaucoma screen) · dilated retina examination · advice on lifestyle, screen habits and diet. We add OCT, corneal topography or visual fields only when a finding on the basic exam warrants it — never as a routine upsell.

When to come in

Adults: every 2 years if 20–40, every year after 40. Diabetics: every year regardless of age. After any sudden vision change, floaters, flashing lights or eye pain: same week. Children: age 3, again at 6, and every 2 years through school. Screen-heavy jobs: annually.

Frequently Asked

eye check up Varanasi — patient FAQs

How long does a comprehensive eye exam take?+

About 45–60 minutes, including dilation. Please plan not to drive yourself home afterwards — dilation blurs near vision and increases light sensitivity for 3–4 hours.

Do I need to bring old prescriptions or reports?+

Yes — any old prescriptions, previous fundus photos / OCT reports, or diabetes reports (HbA1c) help us make faster, better decisions. Even a photo of the old spectacle case with the power inside helps.
