About Dr. Gul Nankani
Dr. Gul Nankani is a Senior Consultant Ophthalmologist at Gleneagles Hospital, Parel, Mumbai, with over two decades of experience helping patients see the world more clearly. He is widely regarded as a pioneer in topical cataract surgery in India, and his no-injection, no-stitch, no-patch approach to phacoemulsification has made the procedure far more comfortable for thousands of patients. His expertise spans cataract surgery, LASIK refractive surgery, diabetic retinopathy, keratoconus, and premium intraocular lens implantation — giving him the breadth to manage a wide range of eye conditions under one roof.
Dr. Nankani's training journey reflects a genuine commitment to learning from the very best. He pursued advanced studies at two of the United Kingdom's most respected eye care institutions — Moorfields Eye Hospital and The Royal Free Hospital, both in London. Back in India, he also completed specialized training in Anterior Segment Ophthalmology at L.V. Prasad Eye Institute, one of the country's foremost centres for eye care. This blend of international exposure and rigorous Indian clinical training shaped a practice style that is both technically precise and deeply patient-centred.
Patients often speak about Dr. Nankani's ability to explain complex eye conditions in plain, reassuring language. Whether someone is navigating a cataract diagnosis for the first time or seeking a long-term solution for blurred vision through LASIK or ICL surgery, he takes the time to walk them through every option so they can make a confident, informed choice. His experience in implanting premium intraocular lenses has helped many patients achieve spectacle freedom — a life-changing outcome that goes well beyond a routine procedure.
For international patients arriving through Gaf Healthcare, Dr. Nankani offers the reassurance of world-class training, a high-volume surgical practice, and a hospital environment — Gleneagles Hospital, Mumbai — that is well equipped to support overseas visitors. His team is accessible, his consultations are thorough, and his track record across thousands of eye surgeries speaks for itself. If you or a family member is considering eye treatment in Mumbai, Dr. Nankani is a name worth knowing.
