Vision and Philosophy
Our
philosophy is very simple,
we believe that whatever we are is
because of the patients who have invested their faith and trust in
us - and what comes from the people must ultimately go to the people many times
over completing the full circle and fulfilling the purpose of our
E xistence. Our involvement in this
process ensures that patients are not viewed as just consumers, or
stakeholders or even potential investors, but the very reason for
our existence.

"Small is Beautiful " - Closing the
Gap between Dreams & Reality Sri Venkateswara
Nethralaya(SVN) R is
now entering its 21st year and has applied itself
towards every aspect of Superspeciality eye care. Worldover,
major eye centres are undergoing a transformation where
patients are now no longer admitted for overnight stay in the
hospital. Large Eye centres requiring Large buildings are now
a thing of the past. Internationally, most eye care
centres have adopted latest technology & are now getting
transformed into small and compact day care centres as
advancements in surgical technology enable patients to be
discharged for home care 10-15 minutes after surgery after a
short admission. Our Hospital takes the concept of "small is
beautiful" many steps further and our hospital is not only
smaller, but safer, compact, convenient and effective.

SVN has endeavoured year after year to bring about
the latest and the most sophisticated facility from
the world over in order to serve its patients in
this part of Bangalore. In 2014, we have renovated
our entire hospital adding up another floor with
additional facilities like conference room, Laser
Surgical Suite, Deluxe airconditioned suite (WiFi
enabled) and a host of value added services which
complements our philosophy of "Small is Beautiful".
In 2019, We have introduced yet another diagnostic
imaging modality - Optical
Coherence Tomography at a cost of over 25000 USD which is useful for imaging a
wide range of diseases both in the Anterior Segment
(Front Portion of the Eye) as well as the Posterior
Segment (Back Portion of the Eye). We have also
introduced a Non
Contact Tonometer (Reichert Technologies, USA) which is capable of
measuring the pressure inside the eye without touching
the eyeball. This is extremely useful to measure the
Intraocular pressure in patients who may have to undergo
repeated measurements at different times of the day to
assess diurnal variations.
Indeed, For
Patients in South West Bangalore and RajaRajeshwarinagar,
the name SVN
is quite synonymous with quality and excellence in eye
care- a trait which we have nourished and preserved with
utmost care. In fact, it is this pursuit of excellence
that sets us apart from other competing eye hospitals who
also recognize our varied surgical expertise to
refer their unexpected surgical complications such as
dropped nucleus following cataract surgery, retinal
surgeries, Lasik Enhancements etc. As much as our
patients are proud of our achievements, we are grateful to
all our patients and referring doctors, optometrists,
Pharmacies, Laboratories, Opticians as well as various
other hospitals for their recognition ,support and
partnering us in our pursuit of widening the reach
of ophthalmology in this region. We are also empanelled
with various insurance companies including GIPSA and offer
Cashless services to all Health Insurance Card holders.
In 2015 January 26th, We have also inaugurated our
SECOND
centre at Ramanagaram on the Bangalore Mysore Highway and we
are pleased to announce that this facility too is a stand
alone centre fully equipped with a Surgical OT with
Operating Microscope, Alcon Laureate Global Phaco System for
effortless cataract surgery, Consultation rooms, High End
Equipments, Fundus Imaging system for diagnosis of Retinal
diseases, Opticals, Pharmacy etc. This centre serves the
people of Ramanagara, Magadi, Chennapatna, Kanakapura along
with nearby townships at Bidadi and Kumblagodu as well as
over 150 surrounding villages.
In the year 2019, June 15th, We have inaugurated our THIRD
unit at Kengeri Satellite Town, Opposite Vidhya Ganapathi
temple and we are looking forward to cater to the population
residing at kengeri, kumblagodu, Malathahalli, Uttarahalli,
Bangalore University and nearby residential areas.This
centre too is fully equipped to treat patients for eye
related ailments along with performing Eye Surgeries. The
centre has 3 Consultation chambers, Opticals, Pharmacy,
Operation Theatre, Imaging System, Computerized Vision
Testing, Cataract Surgical Suite for Stichless, painless
cataract surgery by phacoemulsification.
In 2024,
We are also associated with Gleneagles BGS Hospital for
providing Ophthalmology Services in association with their
other tertiary care services like transplant medicine,
cancer care, and advanced diagnostics.
We are also proud
that many associated superspeciality services such as
Vitreoretinal surgery, Laser vision correction,
Glaucoma, etc apart from advanced cataract surgery are
also provided under a single roof at our centre. No
other centre in South West Bangalore provides in house
Lasik Laser treatment or VitreoRetinal Surgery or
Advanced Cataract surgery by advanced phaco techniques.
All other centres provide Basic Cataract surgery only,
while
referring difficult / demanding cataract
patients who demand good near normal post operative
results to Advanced & dedicated Ophthalmic
surgical centres . In this region, SVN
(Sri Venkateshwara Nethralaya) is
the one & only dedicated surgical eye centre
to provide total eye care solutions under one roof
starting from Lasik to Advanced Vitreoretinal surgery
to Cataract Surgery by Advanced Phacoemulsification.
In fact, in this region we are the only centre to
provide Multifocal IOL implantation to our elderly
patients to achieve spectacle free eyesight.
In fact we are the
first centre to implant Carl Zeiss MF4 Multifocal IOL in
Karnataka as well as the first centre to install NIDEK
Excimer laser for Lasik Laser treatments imported from
Japan.
Our Inhouse Optical
facility, Contact Lens trial facility (Soft, Semisoft, RGP,
SemiScleral, Mini Scleral and Full Scleral Lenses), Day care
surgical facility, Lasik treatment suite, Vitreoretinal
surgical facility, along with various advanced diagnostic
equipments for detection and treatment of Glaucoma and other
sight threatening disorders can be compared with the
most advanced tertiary care centres anywhere in the world.
It is also a matter of enormous pride that we have been
consistently providing these facilities at a reasonable
cost that is almost 35-60% economical when
compared to similar centres not only in Bangalore, but
also in other metros like Mumbai, Hyderabad, New Delhi
etc.
HOW IS THiS POSSIBLE?
WHY HONEST PRICING IS IMPORTANT?
In fact
when compared, many
charitable eye hospitals charge much higher rates for
paying patients depending on their paying capacity as they
tend to cross subsidize their free surgeries for camp
patients through the targeted excess revenue generated
from paying patients. This leads to artificially
high/inflated prices to patients who
pay on their own with their own resources. In India, more
than 75% of patients pay from their own pockets and this
artificially inflated prices leads to financial
misfortunes for many families. Even
Insurance Companies are alleging fraud when hospitals
overcharge paying patients. But, Most Hospitals perform a
few free surgeries and free treaments and overcharge the
rest in the name of cross subsidization.
So, We do
not perform free surgeries by charging more from paying
patients as we feel it is not a good practice in the long
run exploiting cash paying patients without their consent.
For Poor patients, we do have a list of voluntary
patients who have expressed their wish to sponsor a
surgery to provide vision for poor blind
patients as a good will benovelence measure for having
recovered well in our hands. Sometimes many patients /
good samaritans also request us to identify deserving
candidates to be operated upon in the memory of their
departed family members. We allow the patient to contact
these "angel sponsors" who then decide if they will partly/fully
fund the cost of the surgery on a case to case basis after
verifying the credentials. The surgeries are also
scheduled on the death anniversary of the departed family
member if such a wish is expressed. After the procedure
utilising the same infrastructure and skills given to
paying patients, Pre Operative Photographs, Surgical Video
as well as post operative Photographs with patient
testimonials expressing gratitude to the concerned angel
sponsor ..is given to the sponsoring family. This helps in creating a "Family
Bond" between the hospital,
poor patient as well as the angel sponsor
which lasts for an entire lifetime and provides immense
satisfaction to all the stake holders as the quality of
surgery &/ results is never compromised in the name of "Free
Eye Surgery / Mass Camp Surgery". Angel Sponsors also get
due credit and recognition from the poorer sections of the
society. However they can wish to remain anonymous to the
patient if they so desire.
Our Charitable
programmes Nethrodhayam ,
Sudarshanam ,and Pavithrajyothi ensure that the less privileged sections of
the society are not left behind in this rapidly advancing
field of medicine and our approach is thereby ensured to be
all encompassing and wholesome.
