🏆 Dr. Shashank Rathod is one of the earliest pioneers in the Phacoemulsification Cataract Removal technique in India, leading the surgical team at Eye Care Hospital since 1987.

👁️ Cataract Surgery & Phacoemulsification Services

Phacoemulsification (Phaco) Cataract Surgery: The most advanced and minimally invasive cataract removal technique. Dr. Shashank Rathod was one of the earliest surgeons in India to pioneer this technique. The procedure uses ultrasonic energy to break up the cloudy lens and remove it through a tiny incision, resulting in faster recovery and better visual outcomes.

Premium Intraocular Lens (IOL) Implantation: We offer a comprehensive range of advanced IOLs including Multifocal IOLs (clear vision at near, intermediate, and far distances), Toric IOLs (correct astigmatism along with cataract), and Aspheric Monofocal IOLs (enhanced contrast sensitivity and night vision).

Manual Small Incision Cataract Surgery (MSICS): A highly effective and cost-efficient cataract surgery option for patients who may not be ideal candidates for phacoemulsification. Performed through a slightly larger self-sealing incision.

Second Eye Cataract Surgery: Sequential bilateral cataract surgery with the same high standards of care and premium lens options for the second eye.

Post-Cataract Complication Management: Expert management of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) with YAG laser capsulotomy, IOL repositioning, and other post-operative care.

🔬 Laser Eye Surgery, Retina & Glaucoma Services

Bladeless LASIK Surgery: State-of-the-art all-laser LASIK procedure using advanced femtosecond laser technology for precise corneal flap creation, offering faster visual recovery and reduced complications compared to conventional LASIK.

Retina & Vitreo-Retinal Surgery: Expert management of diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment, macular degeneration, and other vitreo-retinal conditions using advanced diagnostic tools including high-precision OCT and fundus imaging.

Glaucoma Diagnosis & Management: Comprehensive glaucoma screening using high-precision perimetry (visual field testing) for early detection and treatment. We offer both medical management (eye drops) and surgical intervention (trabeculectomy, laser treatment).

Pterygium Excision with Autologous Graft: Specialized surgical removal of pterygium (surfer’s eye) with conjunctival autografting for reduced recurrence rates and improved cosmetic outcomes.

Squint Correction (Strabismus) Surgery: Pediatric and adult squint correction surgery for alignment of the eyes, improving both vision and cosmetic appearance.

Pediatric Ophthalmology: Comprehensive eye care for children including congenital cataract management, amblyopia (lazy eye) treatment, pediatric glaucoma, and regular eye screening for school-age children.

Computer Vision Syndrome Treatment: Diagnosis and management of digital eye strain, dry eye, and related conditions from prolonged screen use.
