About Dr. Richa Sharma
Dr. Richa Sharma is a dedicated Pediatric Ophthalmologist and Strabismus Specialist based in New Delhi, with over 12 years of focused experience in children's eye care. Practicing at The Sight Avenue Eye Hospital, she is known for her calm, gentle approach with young patients and her deep expertise in conditions that affect a child's vision from infancy through adolescence.
Dr. Sharma completed both her MBBS and MS in Ophthalmology from PGIMS, Rohtak — one of the most respected government medical institutions in Haryana. She then pursued a long-term fellowship in Pediatric Ophthalmology, Strabismus, and Neuro-Ophthalmology at Dr. Shroff's Charity Eye Hospital in Delhi, a fellowship program recognized across India for its rigorous clinical training. This foundation has shaped her into a well-rounded specialist who handles everything from crossed eyes and congenital cataracts to retinopathy of prematurity in newborns.
Families who bring their children to Dr. Sharma often speak about how she takes the time to explain a diagnosis in language that parents can actually understand — without rushing, without jargon. For many families, receiving news about a child's vision problem is overwhelming. Her ability to combine clinical precision with genuine empathy makes a real difference during those moments.
For international families seeking pediatric eye care in India, Dr. Sharma offers a compelling combination: specialized training from a nationally recognized fellowship, years of hands-on experience managing complex pediatric conditions, and access to a well-equipped hospital in the heart of Delhi. Gaf Healthcare can help you arrange a consultation, coordinate your travel, and ensure everything is in place before your child's appointment.
