Why patients from Ghazipur choose Shantanu Netralaya over local options

Patients from Ghazipur typically travel to Shantanu Netralaya, Varanasi (80 km / 2 hours by road) 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 Ghazipur. 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 Ghazipur can access premium refractive cataract surgery without traveling to a metro city.

Which eye conditions do we most often treat for Ghazipur patients?

Ghazipur, Zamania, Saidpur and Zahoorabad patients have been coming to us for cataract surgery, diabetic retinopathy screening and second opinions on complex-cataract cases (mature, subluxated or post-uveitic). Ayushman Bharat coverage is a significant factor for many families here. The most common presentations from Ghazipur 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 Ghazipur — practical logistics

The recommended route is via NH-31 through Sadat and Zamania — a 2-hour drive by car. Direct trains from Ghazipur City / Ghazipur Junction to Varanasi Junction take about 90 minutes and are a popular choice for older patients accompanied by a family member. Overnight stays in Varanasi the night before surgery are common. 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.
