DASP Technique for Refractive Surgeries
Refractive surgery is not just a technical intervention; it is a system of diagnosis, judgment, execution, and responsibility. In this episode, Dr. Vikas Veerwal breaks down the DASP Technique through a structured lens—connecting clinical precision with philosophical clarity. We explore how Indian ophthalmology has evolved its own high-volume, outcome-driven frameworks, and what Western systems can learn from Indian surgical realities. This discussion is designed for ophthalmologists who want to think better, operate safer, and build sustainable practices.

Future of Ophthalmology, Group Practice Model & Patients as Partners
What does it take to build a scalable, ethical, and patient-centric eye care institution in India? In this episode of PANELS, we host Dr. Vinay Garodia, Managing Director of Synergy Eye Care, to explore the thinking, systems, and philosophy behind one of India’s leading group practice models in ophthalmology. This is not a surface-level conversation. We examine how ophthalmology must evolve—from solo practice to institution-led care—while preserving clinical autonomy, trust, and long-term outcomes.
Slow.
Honest.
Canonical.
