"At Surya Eye, we are dedicated to integrating the latest technological advancements in eye care. Our adoption of robotic cataract surgery and bladeless LASIK represents a significant leap in precision and safety. These technologies allow us to perform surgeries with unparalleled accuracy, significantly reducing recovery times and enhancing patient outcomes," said Dr.Goyal.
Over 55 crore people in India live with uncorrected poor vision, affecting individuals across all age groups and socioeconomic backgrounds. The root causes of uncorrected poor vision include lack of access to eye care services, financial constraints, and a general lack of awareness about the importance of regular eye check-ups. Surya Eye has launched several initiatives to help poor people access best eye care facilities. "While we are at the cutting edge of technology, we are also committed to making these advancements accessible to a broader population. We actively collaborate with government programs and private sector initiatives to bring state-of-the-art eye care to rural and underserved areas. This ensures that everyone, regardless of their location or economic status, can benefit from our services," he said.
Surya Eye's journey towards excellence is marked by significant milestones. Under Dr. Goyal's leadership since 2012, the institute has expanded to three centres across Mumbai, solidifying its reputation as one of the city's premier eye care facilities. "Our mission is to provide a unique blend of clinical expertise and advanced technology. We aim to be recognized as the leading name in premium eye care in Mumbai and across India. Our team constantly updates their skills and knowledge to stay abreast with global advancements in eye care. This commitment ensures that our patients receive treatments that are both cutting-edge and evidence-based," he noted.
One of the key areas where Surya Eye has made substantial progress is using artificial intelligence (AI) in diagnostics. "AI-driven diagnostic tools enable us to detect eye conditions at much earlier stages. This early detection is crucial for preventing severe vision impairment and ensuring timely intervention," Dr. Goyal explained. He added that these technologies are particularly beneficial in managing conditions like diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma, where early detection can significantly alter the disease's progression.
The institute's focus on comprehensive eye care extends beyond advanced surgical techniques. "Education and awareness are critical components of our approach. We regularly organize camps and workshops to educate the public about the importance of eye health and the available treatments. This proactive approach helps in early detection and management of eye conditions, reducing the overall burden of eye diseases in the community," he added.
Dr. Goyal's vision for Surya Eye is clear. "We aim to continue investing in the best technology and expertise to enhance eye care services. We hope to set new benchmarks in the field and make significant contributions to improving eye health in India," he said, reinforcing the institute's unwavering commitment to excellence in eye care.
