About our service

Serving Dehri-on-Sone from Varanasi

Dehri-on-Sone — a large industrial town on the Sone river in Rohtas district — is well connected to Varanasi by NH-19 and direct trains via Dehri-on-Sone Junction. The road journey takes about 2 hours; the train ride is around 90 minutes. Dehri families come to Shantanu Netralaya for premium cataract surgery, medical retina care (anti-VEGF injections, OCT-guided monitoring), diabetic retinopathy screening and second opinions on complex cases. Same-day discharge cataract surgery is a genuine option for Dehri patients — many complete the entire visit in a single day.

Why patients from Dehri-on-Sone choose Shantanu Netralaya over local options

Patients from Dehri-on-Sone typically travel to Shantanu Netralaya, Varanasi (125 km · 2 hours on NH-19) for three reasons. First, our lead consultant Dr. Shantanu Kumar Gupta is trained at Maulana Azad Medical College and Guru Nanak Eye Centre, New Delhi — an accreditation you will rarely find at general clinics in Dehri-on-Sone. Second, we operate a same-day discharge model for cataract surgery: patients arrive in the morning, undergo phacoemulsification under topical anaesthesia, and return home the same evening. Third, our IOL catalogue includes monofocal, toric, EDOF and trifocal lenses — so patients from Dehri-on-Sone can access premium refractive cataract surgery without traveling to a metro city.

Which eye conditions do we most often treat for Dehri-on-Sone patients?

Dehri-on-Sone's industrial-town demographic produces a distinct patient mix — long-standing type-2 diabetics needing OCT-guided retina screening, mature senile cataract in the 60+ age group where local access to premium IOLs has been limited, and occasional complex-cataract second opinions. Anti-VEGF injection schedules for wet AMD are workable from here without an overnight stay if the schedule is planned around morning appointment slots. The most common presentations from Dehri-on-Sone are: (1) age-related cataract in the 55+ demographic, often long-standing due to delayed access to premium surgery; (2) diabetic retinopathy in patients with type 2 diabetes — for which we offer OCT-guided screening, anti-VEGF intravitreal injections and pan-retinal laser (PRP); (3) dry eye disease and computer vision syndrome; (4) pediatric refractive error and amblyopia therapy (handled by Dr. Manisha Mishra); and (5) post-cataract yttrium-aluminium-garnet (YAG) capsulotomy for capsular opacification.

Getting to our Varanasi clinic from Dehri-on-Sone — practical logistics

Dehri-on-Sone to Varanasi is a 2-hour drive on NH-19 — one of the more comfortable Bihar journeys because the road is well-maintained and traffic is light on the Sone-river stretch. Direct trains from Dehri-on-Sone Junction to Varanasi Junction take about 90 minutes. Same-day discharge cataract surgery is genuinely practical for most Dehri families. Our address is 40, Deen Dayal Colony, Kabir Nagar Road, Near Durgakund, Varanasi, 221005 — with a Plus Code of 7XRW+32 Varanasi. Free onsite parking is available. If you are coming for surgery, please have one family member accompany you; the eye is usually padded for a few hours post-op, so we do not recommend driving back yourself the same day. Consultations can be booked directly on WhatsApp (+91 83186 65154) — most weeks we can accommodate a same-day or next-day slot. Cashless insurance approval (all major TPAs, plus Ayushman Bharat where eligible) is coordinated by our front desk before your surgery date.
