Dr. Sameer Kaushal

Dr. Sameer Kaushal is one of India's most respected eye surgeons, serving as Director of Ophthalmology at Medanta - The Medicity in Gurugram. With over two decades of practice, his core expertise lies in cornea, cataract, and refractive surgery — a field he has devoted his entire career to mastering. Patients and families travelling from abroad often describe him as someone who takes the time to explain things clearly, which makes a real difference when you are navigating a medical journey far from home.

Dr. Kaushal's academic roots run deep. He completed his MBBS, MD in Ophthalmology, and a three-year fellowship in Cornea, Cataract, and Refractive Surgery — all at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi, widely regarded as the country's premier medical institution. He also holds a DNB from the National Board of Examinations. That foundation at AIIMS shaped not just his surgical skills but also his approach to research and teaching, both of which remain important parts of his professional life.

Over the years, Dr. Kaushal has built a broad surgical repertoire that spans routine and complex cataract surgery, LASIK, corneal transplantation, keratoconus management, pediatric eye conditions, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy care. He is known for applying minimally invasive techniques that prioritise faster recovery and better visual outcomes — something patients particularly appreciate when they have travelled a long way for treatment.

For international patients, choosing Dr. Kaushal means accessing highly specialised eye care at a world-class hospital without the long waiting times or high costs common in many other countries. His team at Medanta is experienced in supporting overseas patients, and Gaf Healthcare is here to handle everything from appointment scheduling and travel coordination to follow-up queries — so you can focus entirely on your recovery.
