Why you can trust this page
The description of Retina Services in Delhi on this page reflects how the service is offered at Neera Eye Centre, Darya Ganj, by the team led by Dr. Neera Agrawal.
Where a recovery time or a fee is not given as a fixed number, that is deliberate. Both depend on your examination, and both are explained before you decide.
This page is written for patients considering the service. It is general information, not a personalised treatment plan.
Service Overview
The retina is the thin, light-sensing layer at the back of your eye. It works like the film in a camera. If the retina is damaged, nothing done at the front of the eye — no glasses, no lens, no LASIK — can make your vision sharp again. This is why retina problems are treated as urgent.
The difficult part is that retinal disease gives very little warning. Diabetic retinopathy can be well advanced before you notice a single symptom. When symptoms do appear, they are usually a blurred or dark patch in the centre of your vision, straight lines that look bent or wavy, or a sudden shower of black floating spots or flashes of light.
Damage that has already happened to the retina usually cannot be reversed. But it can almost always be slowed or stopped, if it is found early.
At Neera Eye Centre we use OCT scanning, fundus photography and angiography to detect changes long before you would notice them, and treat them with anti-VEGF injections, retinal laser or surgery.
What It Covers
A detailed, painless cross-section scan of your retinal layers that picks up fluid and swelling long before it affects your vision.
Medication delivered into the eye to control leaking blood vessels and reduce swelling in the macula. Given under numbing drops.
Controlled laser is used to seal retinal tears and treat weak areas before they progress to a detachment. Usually a 15 to 30 minute outpatient session.
Structured annual retina checks for patients with diabetes, with fundus photography kept on record so year-on-year changes are visible.
Ongoing monitoring and treatment to protect your central vision — the part you read, recognise faces and drive with.
Who It Is For
If you have diabetes, you need a dilated retina check once a year even if your vision feels completely fine. This is the single most important eye appointment you can keep.
A sudden burst of black spots, cobwebs or light flashes needs to be examined the same day. It can signal a retinal tear.
A grey patch in the middle of your sight, or straight lines that appear bent, needs a macular assessment.
Cost
The cost of Retina Services in Delhi at Neera Eye Centre depends on your examination and the plan your eyes actually need. We confirm a written estimate at consultation, before anything is booked.
There is no single figure that fits every eye. The technique, whether one or both eyes are treated, and any other condition found on examination can change the plan.
Your scans, the treatment that suits your eye, and whether extra care is needed for a second condition. The written estimate lists what is included before a date is fixed.
How It Works
Your pupils are dilated with drops so the entire retina can be examined. This takes about 30 to 40 minutes to take effect.
You rest your chin on a support while a non-contact scanner maps your retinal layers. It is completely painless and takes a few minutes.
If treatment is required, the eye surface is numbed with drops first. Injections take under a minute; a laser session takes 15 to 30 minutes. Both are done in the outpatient clinic.
Before and after
What the first days look like depends on whether this is a scan, medical treatment, or a procedure. At Neera Eye Centre we explain drops, precautions, and the review date before anything is scheduled.
Bring earlier reports, your current glasses, and a list of eye drops or medicines. Tell us about diabetes, allergies, blood thinners, and any recent redness or injury.
Follow the plan you are given — observation, drops, or a procedure date. Avoid rubbing the eye. Call us the same day if pain, redness, or blurred vision gets worse instead of settling.

Timing
Come in when symptoms affect reading, driving, work, or comfort, or when another doctor has asked you to get this checked. You do not need to wait until a problem is severe.
A consultation is how we tell you whether this service is the right next step, or whether observation or a different treatment suits your eyes better.
Why Choose Us
Retina care is not a one-visit fix — it is a relationship measured in years. What matters is whether your scans from this year can be compared meaningfully against last year's. At Neera Eye Centre your OCT scans, fundus photographs and treatment history are maintained as a continuous record, so change is measured rather than guessed at. Treatment intervals are set by what your scans actually show, not by a fixed schedule. For diabetic patients, we co-ordinate the eye picture with what your physician is seeing, because retinal control and blood sugar control are the same problem viewed from two directions.

I recently underwent Topography-guided PRK (Contoura) surgery here, and my experience was absolutely fantastic. I had a high cylindrical power (-3.25) and was honestly a bit nervous, but Dr. Neera agrawal and the entire staff made me feel completely at ease. They took the time to explain exactly why PRK was the safest and best option for me. The procedure was incredibly smooth, and my recovery is going exactly as they guided. The hospital is exceptionally clean, the staff is very cooperative, and the technology is top-notch. If you are considering getting rid of your glasses, I highly recommend dr. Neera and this hospital. Thank you for giving me a glass-free life!
