Dr. Nirmala

My 82-year-old mother had developed severe cataracts that made her nearly blind. Dr. Nirmala performed a delicate phacoemulsification surgery with such precision—my mother now sees colors she hadn't seen in decades! The entire team at Manipal Hospital was supportive, and Dr. Nirmala’s calm demeanor eased all our worries.

Brought my 5-year-old son for his first eye check-up after his teacher noticed squinting. Dr. Nirmala was incredible with kids—used cartoon-themed charts and made him laugh throughout. Diagnosed mild astigmatism early, and now with glasses, he’s thriving in school. So grateful for her patience!

Rushed to the ER with a sudden retinal detachment after a bad fall. Dr. Nirmala came in immediately, even though it was late evening. Her quick decision to perform vitrectomy saved my vision. The follow-ups have been thorough, and I’m regaining sight steadily—truly a lifesaver!

Went for a routine diabetic retinopathy screening. Dr. Nirmala spotted early changes I hadn’t even felt. Explained everything with clear diagrams and adjusted my treatment plan. It’s reassuring to have a doctor who’s both sharp and compassionate.

Complex case: I had uveitis that wasn’t responding to initial treatments. Dr. Nirmala coordinated with my rheumatologist, adjusted medications, and got it under control. Her holistic approach made all the difference.
