Surgical outcomes depend heavily on experience and judgment -- not just the technology used. Beyond technical skill, continuity matters: the surgeon who evaluates you should be the same one operating, and the same one seeing you afterward.
What Happens During Your Evaluation?
What I Commonly Hear From Patients
Ophthalmologist
"Patients researching cataract surgery often tell me they're less worried about the procedure itself and more concerned about who is actually doing it -- will it really be the surgeon they consulted with?"
It will. I evaluate every patient myself, perform the surgery myself, and see you for follow-up myself. That continuity matters -- you shouldn't have to re-explain your case to a different person at every stage of surgical care.
Understanding Your Lens Options
What Happens Next
Surgical Evaluation
A detailed assessment of your cataract, eye health, and suitability for surgery -- performed by Dr. Rajeswari directly.
A Direct Conversation
Your surgeon explains the procedure, lens options, and realistic outcomes -- not a counselor or coordinator standing in.
Stitchless Surgery
