Cataract Surgery in Panipat — Worth the Drive Down NH-44
Panipat is known across India for the three decisive battles fought on its soil — today, the same NH-44 that runs through the city connects it directly to Save Sight Centre in Adarsh Nagar. We offer PHACO, MICS and FLACS cataract surgery, with every lens type priced from ₹15,000 per eye.
What Panipat Patients Should Know Before Travelling to Save Sight Centre
Panipat is roughly 90 km from Adarsh Nagar, so we won't pretend this is a quick hop across town — it's a genuine highway trip, most commonly made via NH-44 straight through Sonipat and Murthal. What we hear from patients who've made the journey is that having a surgeon they trust, rather than the nearest available clinic, made the distance worth it. Dr. Rajeev Jain and Dr. Shuchi Gupta personally see every patient through their cataract care, from the first consultation to the final follow-up, which matters even more when you've travelled a distance to get here.

PHACO, MICS or FLACS — Which One Suits Your Eye?
Each technique achieves the same result — removing the clouded lens and replacing it with a clear one — but the tools, incision size and recovery pace differ. Save Sight Centre offers all three so your surgeon can pick what genuinely fits your eye.
Your surgeon recommends the right technique only after a full eye evaluation — there's no default option applied to everyone.
Monofocal, Multifocal or EDOF — What Fits Your Routine?
The lens you choose decides how much you'll still rely on glasses afterward. Save Sight Centre stocks Monofocal, Multifocal/Trifocal and EDOF lenses, with Toric versions of each for patients who also need astigmatism correction.
Monofocal Lens (Toric Available)
Dependable single-distance vision, and the most economical choice.
Multifocal / Trifocal Lens (Toric Available)
Covers near, mid and far vision together, cutting down on glasses.
EDOF Lens (Toric Available)
An extended focus range with fewer night-time glare complaints.

Frequently Asked Questions
Not usually — cataract surgery at Save Sight Centre is a same-day procedure. Given the distance from Panipat, though, some patients prefer to stay locally the night before, especially if their appointment is early in the morning.
Common early symptoms include blurry or hazy vision, colours appearing faded, difficulty reading in dim light, and increased glare from headlights or sunlight. A quick eye check at Save Sight Centre can confirm the cause.
No. Save Sight Centre uses local anaesthesia with numbing eye drops, so most patients feel only mild pressure, not pain, during the procedure.
Many patients notice clearer vision within a day or two, with full stabilisation typically taking 1 to 4 weeks depending on the lens and technique used.
Typically a pre-surgery evaluation, the surgery day itself, and one or two follow-up visits. Given the distance, ask your counsellor about combining checks where possible to reduce the number of trips.
Most health insurance plans cover cataract surgery since it's medically necessary. Save Sight Centre's front desk can verify your specific policy's cashless eligibility before your visit.
Save Sight Centre typically treats one eye first and schedules the second a few days to weeks later, once your surgeon confirms the first eye is healing well — worth planning around given the distance from Panipat.
Despite the longer drive from Panipat, Save Sight Centre offers the same transparent pricing to every patient — cataract surgery starts at ₹15,000 per eye across all lens types, with the final cost depending on the lens and technique chosen.
