Santacruz is one of Mumbai's most well-connected suburbs, and yet patients here consistently make the 25โ30 minute journey north to Sentra Clinic, Malad East โ because the level of surgical eye care available there simply isn't replicated locally. Dr. Rohit Modi (FRCS Glasgow, ICO Fellowship) and Dr. Shraddha Surekha bring international surgical training to a clinic that is a quick Western Railway ride away from Santacruz Station.
Whether you are exploring LASIK for the first time, need cataract surgery with the right lens for your lifestyle, or have been told you have early glaucoma or diabetic retinal changes โ a visit to Sentra gives you a thorough, surgeon-led opinion and a clear treatment plan.

"Three clinics in Santacruz and Bandra said my corneas were borderline for LASIK. At Sentra, Dr. Modi did a corneal topography map and explained in detail that I was actually a safe Contoura candidate. That thorough assessment gave me the confidence to go ahead. Best decision โ now at 6/6 vision."
โ Nisha Kapoor, Santacruz West ยท Contoura Vision Surgery"My mother needed cataract surgery but she had significant astigmatism. Dr. Modi recommended a toric IOL and took time to explain why it was better for her case than a standard lens. The result was that she can now drive without glasses for the first time in 15 years. The WR train from Santacruz to Malad took 25 minutes โ well worth it."
