In the 1950s, an eye doctor couple from a medical college in Jaipur happened
to visit their parents in an ashram in Pondicherry in Southern India.
While crossing the metropolitan city of Madras with about a hundred rupees
in their pockets, they were enmoured by the city’s grace and decided
to make it their home.
Dr.Agarwal's Eye Hospital was founded by
Late Dr.J.Agarwal (recipient of the Padma
Bhushan award) and his wife Dr. T.Agarwal in Chennai, India, in 1957. What was initially an eye clinic and their home evolved into a modern eye hospital in 1976. The founders used their creative vision to build the first Agarwal Eye Hospital in the shape of a human eye and it soon became a
prominent landmark on the city map. Years later, their unique effort received global recognition when it was mentioned by the American franchise "Ripley's believe it or not".
The flagship centre at Chennai soon became one of
the premier institutions for globally recognised eye
care and treatment serving patients from around
the country and beyond. The Hospital also attracted
doctors from around the world who wanted to learn
from the experienced teams about the latest
advances in eye care.
The institution gave birth to many modern day
inventions in the field like Glued IOL (to treat
patients with complicated lens problems) and PDEK
(an ultra-modern form of eye transplants).
To be a truly global healthcare organization with best practises from
different sectors while relying on continuous innovation and cutting-edge
technology to win.
With regard to eyecare, we're truly global.
