Patient Experience
Rushed to Manipal Hospital after getting chemical splashed in my eye at work. Dr. Geetha's team acted immediately with irrigation and treatment. She personally called me that evening to check on my pain levels. The follow-up care has been exceptional - my cornea is healing perfectly.
My diabetic retinopathy required complex laser treatment that I'd been putting off for years. Dr. Geetha explained every step with incredible patience, using retinal scans to show me exactly what she would address. The procedure was virtually painless, and my vision has stabilized beautifully.
Brought my teenage daughter in for routine contact lens fitting. Dr. Geetha noticed subtle signs of keratoconus that others had missed. Her early intervention and corneal cross-linking treatment have likely saved my daughter from needing a transplant later. So grateful for her sharp eye!
After my glaucoma diagnosis, I expected a lifetime of eye drops and declining vision. Dr. Geetha suggested minimally invasive glaucoma surgery that reduced my medication needs by 80%. Her innovative approach and thorough post-op monitoring have preserved my vision beyond expectations.
My 4-year-old had a persistent eye turn that other doctors said he'd 'grow out of.' Dr. Geetha identified it as amblyopia requiring immediate treatment. Her pediatric-friendly patching protocol and vision therapy have dramatically improved his alignment in just three months.
Emergency corneal ulcer on a holiday weekend - I thought I'd have to wait until Monday. Dr. Geetha answered her personal phone, met me at the hospital within an hour, and treated me with such expertise. She called me twice daily over the weekend to monitor progress. Above and beyond!
Complex retinal detachment repair that required two procedures. Dr. Geetha's surgical skill is matched only by her compassion. She drew diagrams to explain what happened during surgery and what to expect in recovery. My vision recovery has exceeded all predictions.
Routine floaters check turned into a discovery of early macular degeneration. Dr. Geetha's comprehensive scanning caught it at the most treatable stage. Her nutritional guidance and monitoring protocol have given me confidence in managing this condition long-term.
My father's sudden double vision at 78 had us terrified of a stroke. Dr. Geetha quickly ruled out neurological causes and diagnosed cranial nerve palsy. Her conservative treatment approach and weekly monitoring resolved it completely within six weeks without invasive procedures.
Contact lens emergency - I'd been wearing the same pair for months and developed a severe infection. Dr. Geetha didn't judge, just treated me with expertise and kindness. Her 'contact lens bootcamp' education session prevented any future issues. Truly preventive care at its best!
After years of dry eye misery with every treatment failing, Dr. Geetha proposed IPL therapy combined with customized eye drops. The results have been miraculous - no more burning, no more artificial tears every hour. She actually solved what others called 'untreatable.'
As a 78-year-old retired botanist with rapidly progressing cataracts, I feared losing my ability to identify rare plant species. Dr. Shetty performed bilateral cataract surgery using advanced multifocal lenses. Not only can I now distinguish between subtle leaf venation patterns, but I've resumed my botanical illustrations with sharper vision than I had in my 40s.
Our 8-year-old daughter, an aspiring astronaut, developed sudden strabismus that threatened her depth perception. Dr. Shetty diagnosed a rare neurological condition and coordinated with pediatric neurologists. Through non-surgical vision therapy and precise prism adjustments, she now has perfect binocular vision and can continue her dream of becoming a pilot.
During a high-altitude trekking expedition, I suffered a corneal abrasion from ice particles. Rushed to Manipal Hospital, Dr. Shetty performed emergency corneal gluing at 2 AM. His wilderness medicine experience meant he understood altitude-related healing challenges. I recovered fully and completed my Himalayan journey two months later.
As a professional video game streamer, my deteriorating vision from keratoconus threatened my career. Dr. Shetty performed corneal collagen cross-linking followed by custom contact lens fitting. My visual acuity improved from 20/200 to 20/20, allowing me to maintain my elite gaming ranking and continue my esports career.
My 92-year-old grandmother, a former classical dancer, developed macular degeneration that prevented her from seeing her great-grandchildren's faces. Dr. Shetty implemented a customized low-vision rehabilitation program with specialized telescopic glasses. She can now recognize family members across the room and continues to teach dance movements by sight.
After a chemical splash accident in my chemistry lab, I faced potential bilateral corneal damage. Dr. Shetty led an emergency team that performed immediate ocular surface reconstruction. His innovative amniotic membrane transplantation technique saved my vision completely - I returned to research microscopy within six weeks.
Our 6-month-old son was born with congenital cataracts. Dr. Shetty performed delicate infant cataract surgery and prescribed special contact lenses. His team taught us infant vision therapy techniques. Our son now tracks objects normally and is meeting all visual developmental milestones.
As a night shift factory worker with diabetic retinopathy, my declining vision threatened my employment. Dr. Shetty performed targeted laser photocoagulation and arranged for workplace visual accommodations. My vision stabilized, and I received special tinted protective eyewear that reduces glare from machinery lights.
I was so scared going in for my first diabetes check-up. My hands were literally shaking in the waiting room. Dr. Adarsh Ks just had this calm way about him—he explained everything in simple terms, didn't rush me, and by the end I actually felt like I could manage this. The whole 'lifestyle change' thing seems less terrifying now.
