About Dr. Smriti Goel
Dr. Smriti Goel is one of Delhi's most experienced ophthalmologists, with over 28 years dedicated entirely to the care of human vision. Based at Max Super Speciality Hospital in Saket, she works across multiple Max Healthcare locations in Delhi NCR, making expert eye care accessible to patients across the region. Her clinical range is wide — from cataract and LASIK surgery to glaucoma management, corneal transplants, and complex retinal procedures — so patients rarely need to look elsewhere for a second opinion.
Dr. Goel's training tells a story of genuine commitment to her craft. She completed her MBBS at the prestigious Lady Hardinge Medical College in Delhi, followed by an MS in Ophthalmology from GTBH and UCMS, and a DNB from Delhi University. She then went on to clear Part 1 of the FRCS examination in Glasgow, UK — a milestone that reflects her alignment with global standards of ophthalmic practice. That international perspective shapes the way she approaches every patient and every procedure.
What patients consistently appreciate about Dr. Goel is her calm, thorough manner. She takes time to explain what is happening with your eyes, what the options are, and what to realistically expect — whether you are coming in for a routine cataract evaluation or a more involved retinal condition. Her work spans both the front and back of the eye, meaning she is equally comfortable managing a first-time LASIK consultation and performing an intravitreal injection for a diabetic retinal complication.
For international patients, Dr. Goel offers a reassuring combination of world-class training, a busy and well-supported hospital environment, and clear communication in English. Through GAF Healthcare, appointments, medical records coordination, and travel support can all be arranged ahead of your arrival — so your focus stays entirely on your recovery and your vision.
