Comprehensive Eye Checkup in Malad — 20-Point Examination
When did you last get your eyes tested — properly tested, not just read letters off a chart at an optical shop? For most people in Malad, the honest answer is 'years ago' or 'never'. Yet the most serious eye diseases — glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, early retinal damage — build silently for years, showing zero symptoms while they're still easy to treat. A spectacle-number check misses all of them.
Sentra Clinic's comprehensive eye checkup is a 20-point, hospital-grade examination of the complete eye — front to back — designed to catch problems while they're still small. It takes about 45–60 minutes, and for many patients it's the most valuable hour they give their health all year.

What's Included in Our 20-Point Checkup
Vision & Refraction
Computerised testing plus manual verification for your exact spectacle power.
Eye Pressure (IOP)
The key screening test for glaucoma — painless and quick.
Slit-Lamp Examination
Microscopic check of the cornea, lens (cataract grading) and front structures.
Dilated Retina Exam
Drops enlarge your pupil so the doctor can inspect the full retina.
OCT Scan (When Indicated)
Layer-by-layer retinal imaging that detects damage invisible to standard examination.
Dry Eye & Colour Vision
Plus additional tests as your age and history require.
Every finding is explained to you in plain language — Hindi, Marathi or English — with a written summary you can keep.
Who Needs It, and How Often?
| Group | Recommended Frequency |
|---|---|
| Children (3–18) | Once before school age, then every 1–2 years — vision problems caught early prevent lazy eye |
| Adults 18–39 | Every 2 years if no symptoms or risk factors |
| Adults 40+ | Every year — this is when glaucoma and early cataract typically begin |
| Diabetics (any age) | Every year without exception, with dilated retina exam — from the day of diagnosis |
| High spectacle power, family history of glaucoma, or BP patients | Yearly |
Diabetics & BP Patients: Special Protocol
Diabetes and hypertension damage the retina silently — you feel nothing until vision drops, and by then treatment is harder. Our checkup for diabetic and BP patients always includes dilated retina evaluation, and OCT scanning when needed, so retinopathy is caught at the stage where treatment works best. If you or your parents are diabetic and haven't had a retina check in 12 months, this is your reminder. Diabetic eye screening →

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a complete eye checkup cost in Malad?
[State fee]. This includes the full 20-point examination with dilated retina check and doctor consultation — not just a spectacle-number reading.
How long does the checkup take?
Plan for 45–60 minutes including dilation time. Because dilating drops blur near vision for a few hours, avoid driving yourself back or planning close-up work immediately after.
Is an optical shop eye test enough?
An optical test measures spectacle power only. It cannot detect glaucoma, retinal damage or early cataract — conditions that show no symptoms early. A comprehensive checkup examines the complete eye.
Do you check children's eyes?
Yes — children's vision testing including squint and lazy-eye screening is part of our practice. Early detection in childhood prevents permanent vision weakness.
