Cataract Surgery

Cataract is loss of transparency of the crystalline lens. Normal eye has a crystalline lens made up of protein which is transparent like a glass. It is made up of proteins. Crystalline lens together with cornea helps in focusing the light on the retina.

Glaucoma Surgery

Glaucoma is a disease of the eye, where the optic nerve is totally damaged due to increase in eye pressure. The normal eye pressure is between 10-20mm of mercury, any pressure above 20 then increases the risk of optic nerve damaged leading to Glaucoma.

Pterygium surgery

Pterygium is a condition where there is a fleshy growth arising from conjunctiva growing on to cornea. This is usually seen in elderly who are exposed to lot of sunlight exposure. In the early stages it causes a cosmetic disfigurement and in later stage may affect the vision.

Laser vision correction

Laser vision correction is done in people between the age of 18-35 yrs for correction of spectacle power less than -8 to -10 dyoptre, it is done by using laser energy to reshape the cornea using EXCIMER laser (LASIK / PRK).

PHAKIC IOLs

PHAKIC IOLs is done to correct spectacle power between -10 to -20 dyoptre, it can also be done in eyes with power less than -10 dyoptre if the eye Is not suitable for laser vision correction. Here an artificial lens of appropriate power is implanted within the eye in front of natural crystalline lens

Prelex (Presbyopic lens exchange)

Prelex is done for people over the age of 40yrs to get rid of both distance and near vision glasses, here natural crystalline lens is replaced with an artificial multifocal lens.

Secondary IOLs

Secondary IOL is a procedure in which after initial cataract surgery, an artificial lens(IOL) was not implanted in the eye. This results in poor vision and a large residual spectacle number. Inability to put the lens in the first sitting could be due to various reasons like absence of support due to broken posterior capsule or weak zonules.

IOLs Exchanges

IOL exchange is a procedure, wherein one artificial lens implanted earlier is removed and a new artifical lens is inserted. Intraocular lens implanted during cataract surgery normally lasts life time in most of the people. However there are rare occasions where in intraocular lens has to be removed and another intraocular lens needs to be placed.

Red Eye

Red eye is one of the most common problems of the eye. The reason for red eye includes multiple diseases, like; Infection (Conjunctivitis), which could be bacterial or viral. Other causes of red eye includes allergy of the eye, (common in children), Uveitis (auto-immune disorder). Redness can be due to bleed in the conjunctiva due to injury or foreign body in the eye. Treatment depends on the cause of redness. Consult Dr. Shetty for your treatment.

   Dr. Vijay Shetty is the best ophthalmologist. He is a great surgeon. He listens patiently and clears our doubts. One feels assured after speaking to him that we are in the right place. My father was suffering from Glaucoma since many years. We consulted many doctors but no one was ready to take up his case. Then we met Dr. Vijay Shetty, he listened to our problem patiently and explained my dad's condition to us. He successfully operated my dad's eye and today whatever vision my dad has all thanks to Dr Vijay Shetty. We will be greatful to him for lifetime.
He also operated my mom's both eyes for cataract successfully. Though she is diabetic patient she didn't have any problem.
I sincerely recommend Dr. Shetty for any eye issue.

   I am a senior citizen more than 78 year old.Glaucoma and cataract were detected by a Canadian Doctor in my both eyes at Toronto ( Canada) in year 2013.Eye pressures at that time in my left and right eye were 29 and 30 mm Hg.  He performed Laser treatment (SLT) procedure to bring down eye pressure to acceptable limits. Since then I have been using eye drops for control of eye pressure and periodically and constantly going through monitoring of progress of glaucoma and cataract as per doctor's recommendation.

I met Dr Vijay Shetty for his opinion on simultaneous surgery of Glaucoma and Cataract. I was very much impressed by his remarkable sincerity, dedication and professional honesty.  He discussed with me and  explained to me in detail international practices followed for Cataract and glaucoma surgeries together. He advised me that instead of going for cataract and glaucoma surgeries together I should go for cataract surgery first and go for Laser treatment(SLT) next and finally for glaucoma, if other treatments do not work.  I accepted his advice and requested to perform cataract surgery of my right eye. He performed the surgery succefully for which I express my heart-felt and sincere thanks to him.
I also express my sincere thanks to Dr Prenana Shah for her post-surgery retina investigation and Dr Shruti Mittal for her post-surgery follow-up.
Shree Ramkrishna Netralaya at Vashi is a self-contained eye care facility comparable to any international eye care facility. Front desk staff are caring, cooperative and friendly. I express my sincere thanks to all of them. My overall experience with Shree Ramkrishna Netralaya has been very good and I recommend this eye hospital to any one who needs eye treatment.
