About Dr. Shikha Fogla
Dr. Shikha Fogla is a Senior Consultant Ophthalmologist at Apollo Health City, Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad, with more than 25 years of experience in eye care. She is known for her depth of expertise across both the front and back of the eye — from refractive and corneal conditions to complex retinal and glaucoma surgeries. Patients and referring doctors alike trust her for her calm, thorough approach and her ability to manage cases that require real surgical precision.
Dr. Fogla completed her MS in Ophthalmology from Madras Medical College and Government General Hospital, Chennai — one of India's most respected training institutions — and went on to pursue a fellowship in Anterior Segment and Glaucoma. Her career has taken her through several leading eye care institutions in India, including Sankara Nethralaya, one of the country's premier eye hospitals, before she joined Apollo Hospitals, where she continues to practice today.
What patients often say about Dr. Fogla is that she takes time to explain things. Whether it is a routine cataract procedure or a more involved surgery for retinal detachment or keratoconus, she makes sure the patient and their family understand what to expect at every step. That quality of communication — paired with genuine clinical skill — is what keeps her patient relationships strong over the long term.
For international patients travelling to Hyderabad for eye care, Dr. Fogla offers a rare combination: advanced surgical capability across a wide range of procedures, a well-established institutional setting at Apollo Health City, and a warm, patient-first philosophy. GAF Healthcare is pleased to help you connect with her team, manage your appointment, and support your broader travel and care journey from start to finish.
