Virtual consultation

Start with a video consultation, wherever you are.

Share your existing reports, discuss them directly with Dr. Parikh, and find out whether the trip is worth making before you book anything.

How it works

Four steps, and none of them commit you to surgery.

  • Before Send your reports firstShare recent prescriptions, scans or operative notes. Reviewing them before the call means the time is spent on your options rather than on gathering history.
  • The call Speak with Dr. Parikh directlyA scheduled video consultation, not a call-centre triage. You see the same surgeon who would perform the procedure.
  • The plan Get a realistic planWhat is likely possible, what is not, how many days in Mumbai it would take, and what it depends on once you are examined in person.
  • After Decide in your own timeNo booking is held and no surgery is scheduled from a video call. If you decide to travel, the team sequences the visit around your dates.

What a virtual consultation cannot do

A video call cannot measure your cornea, check your retina or your eye pressure, or confirm that a procedure is safe for you. Every plan discussed remotely is provisional until you have been examined in person at the clinic.

We are explicit about this because the alternative — implying a surgical decision can be made over video — would be misleading, and because the in-person examination genuinely does change plans.

Who this is for

Most people who use it fall into one of these groups.

  • NRI patientsPlanning treatment in Mumbai around a trip home, often with limited days available.
  • International patientsTravelling specifically for treatment and needing to know the timeline before booking flights.
  • Out-of-station patients within IndiaElsewhere in Maharashtra or another state, where a wasted trip costs a day of work.
  • Second opinionsYou have been given a diagnosis or a surgical recommendation elsewhere and want it reviewed.

A video consultation does not replace an eye examination. Nothing is confirmed until you are examined in person. Do not use this form for emergencies.
