About Dr. Vishakha Kapoor

Dr. Vishakha Kapoor is a seasoned Consultant Ophthalmologist at Medanta – The Medicity, Gurugram, one of India's most respected multi-specialty hospitals. With over 25 years of clinical experience, she has built a focused practice around diseases of the retina, uvea, and glaucoma — conditions that, when caught and treated well, can make all the difference to a patient's long-term vision and quality of life.

Her training journey laid a strong foundation. Dr. Kapoor completed her medical degree from Gujarat University and then pursued a rigorous three-year Senior Residency at PGIMER, Chandigarh — among India's most prestigious postgraduate medical institutes — specialising specifically in retina and glaucoma. She went on to earn her MS and DNB in Ophthalmology, credentials that reflect both her academic commitment and her depth of surgical training.

Beyond the operating room, Dr. Kapoor has contributed meaningfully to the broader medical community. She has been involved in DNB teaching programs, mentoring the next generation of eye specialists, and served as Deputy Director (Medical) at the National Board of Examinations. She has also presented her work at national and state-level conferences, staying engaged with evolving best practices in eye care.

Patients and families travelling from abroad often value her calm, thorough approach. She takes the time to explain diagnoses clearly, discuss treatment options honestly, and ensure that every patient — whether local or international — feels genuinely heard. For those seeking high-quality eye care in India without navigating the process alone, GAF Healthcare is here to help you connect with Dr. Kapoor and plan your visit with confidence.
