About Dr. Aashish Amar

Dr. Aashish Amar is an ophthalmologist with over 21 years of experience in comprehensive eye care. Based at Marengo Asia Hospitals in Faridabad, he works across a wide spectrum of eye conditions — from cataract and glaucoma to retinal diseases and pediatric eye disorders. Patients and colleagues alike know him for his calm, methodical approach and his ability to handle complex cases with care and precision.

Dr. Amar's academic journey speaks for itself. He completed his MBBS with Distinction from Kasturba Medical College, Manipal, and went on to earn his MS in Ophthalmology from the renowned Madras Medical College, Chennai — finishing as University Topper and Gold Medalist. He later cleared the DNB in Ophthalmology and earned his FRCS from Glasgow, UK, adding an internationally recognised credential to his already strong foundation. His observership in Pediatric Ophthalmology at Sankara Nethralaya, Chennai, deepened his expertise in caring for young patients with eye conditions.

Over the course of his career, Dr. Amar has held senior roles at some of India's most respected institutions — including Apollo Hospital and Max Hospital in Delhi, ASG Eye Hospital, and Guru Nanak Eye Centre at MAMC, Delhi. He also served as Medical Director at Eye 5 Centres. This breadth of experience across tertiary hospitals and dedicated eye care centres has shaped a clinician who is equally comfortable in a routine consultation room and a complex surgical setting.

For international patients, Dr. Amar offers something that matters deeply: clear communication, personalised attention, and a track record built across decades and institutions. Whether you are travelling from abroad for cataract surgery, a corneal procedure, or management of a retinal condition, his team can coordinate your care from arrival to follow-up — with GAF Healthcare supporting you every step of the way.
