About our service

Serving Pandeypur from Varanasi

Pandeypur, Ashapur, Sarnath and Kandwa form the growing northern residential belt of Varanasi. Shantanu Netralaya is a 25-minute drive south — a very manageable trip for monthly retina follow-ups, cataract evaluation or a first family consultation. Free parking, quick registration and same-day discharge surgery make the round trip stress-free.

Full-spectrum eye care within a short drive of Pandeypur

For residents of Pandeypur, Shantanu Netralaya offers what most standalone eye clinics do not: a single-roof service model that combines premium cataract surgery, medical retina, dry-eye management and pediatric eye care. Dr. Shantanu Kumar Gupta (MS, MAMC New Delhi; FICO Merit) handles adult cataract and medical retina — including diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration and retinal vein occlusion. Dr. Manisha Mishra (MBBS Gold Medalist; MS, MAMC) handles pediatric ophthalmology, squint surgery and complex-cataract cases. Pandeypur to Durgakund is a 15-20 minute drive via Cantt / Andhrapul — a 6-7 km trip depending on which of Pandeypur's residential pockets you are starting from.

What's unique about eye-care demand from Pandeypur?

Pandeypur is a large residential belt in northern Varanasi with a strong middle-class family character — extended families, multi-generational households and long-established local practitioners. Older Pandeypur residents commonly present for cataract surgery and diabetic retinopathy screening; younger families come for pediatric refractive-error assessment and amblyopia therapy (under Dr. Manisha Mishra). Because of this, our appointment slots for Pandeypur residents lean towards evening consultations (after 5 PM) and Saturday-morning surgery days. We also keep dedicated screening slots for adults over 40 who have never had a comprehensive eye examination — a one-hour visit that includes refraction, IOP measurement, slit-lamp evaluation, dilated fundus exam and, where indicated, OCT retina imaging.

Booking, insurance and same-day discharge for Pandeypur patients

Booking is easiest on WhatsApp (+91 83186 65154) — send a short note describing your symptoms and we will confirm a slot within business hours. Cashless approvals are arranged with all major insurers before your surgery date, and Ayushman Bharat (PM-JAY) is accepted for eligible patients. Cataract surgery here is same-day discharge: arrive at 8 AM, have MICS phacoemulsification under topical anaesthesia by 10 AM, spend two hours in observation, and go home by lunchtime. A follow-up review the next morning and again at one week is standard.

Getting to Shantanu Netralaya from Pandeypur — routes, parking & Sarnath-link options

Pandeypur is in the northern belt of Varanasi. Shantanu Netralaya at 40 Deen Dayal Colony, Kabir Nagar Road (Durgakund) is a 10–11 km drive to the south. Recommended route: Pandeypur Crossing → Chaukaghat → Cantt (through the Cantt underpass) → Nadesar → Bhelupur → Durgakund crossing (10 km / 25–30 min off-peak). Sarnath-side patients typically join this route at Ashapur. Auto share options: Pandeypur to Cantt (~₹20 per head), then Cantt to Durgakund (~₹25 per head) — total ₹40-50 for the one-way trip. Ola/Uber usually ₹180-220 direct. Free parking on clinic frontage (2-wheeler + 4-wheeler). For elderly patients travelling from Pandeypur or Ashapur we recommend a 10 AM – 12 noon slot to avoid the Cantt underpass evening rush 5–7 PM which can add 15 min to the return.
