About Dr. E Ravindra Mohan
Dr. E Ravindra Mohan is one of Chennai's most respected eye specialists, with more than three decades of experience in ophthalmology. As Director and Senior Consultant at Gleneagles HealthCity Chennai, he leads a team focused on complex eye conditions — from cataracts and glaucoma to delicate orbital and eyelid reconstruction procedures. Patients and peers alike know him for combining deep clinical expertise with a calm, reassuring presence that puts families at ease.
Throughout his career, Dr. Mohan has built a particular reputation in oculoplasty, orbit, and trauma services — a subspecialty that addresses some of the most functionally and emotionally sensitive conditions affecting the eye and its surrounding structures. He has held leadership positions in several professional bodies, including serving as Secretary of the Oculoplasty Association of India and Secretary of the Ophthalmological Research Association. He has also been an active voice at over 75 invited talks across local, national, and international forums, covering scientific presentations, papers, posters, and instruction courses.
Dr. Mohan is passionate about advancing eye care beyond the clinic. He was an early contributor to tele-ophthalmology in India, participating as an expert in tele-consultation through ISRO's nationwide TeleMedicine network — helping patients in remote areas access specialist eye care. He also dedicates time to teaching and mentoring postgraduate ophthalmology students, and serves as a scientific reviewer and editor for medical journals in his field.
For international patients considering treatment in India, Dr. Mohan offers a combination that is hard to find: breadth of surgical expertise, a strong academic foundation, and the infrastructure of a JCI-accredited hospital. Whether you are exploring cataract surgery, a corneal transplant, or a more complex orbital procedure, his team works closely with Gaf Healthcare to ensure your care journey — from first inquiry to follow-up — is smooth, transparent, and well-supported.
