Maxivision’s 30-Year Legacy Of Clinical Excellence: Specialist Eye Care Leaders Advancing Eye Care Across India

Delivering advanced eye care across a country as vast and diverse as India requires more than infrastructure and technology. It demands experienced clinical leadership, a strong institutional vision and the ability to build trusted medical networks across regions. At the heart of Maxivision Super Speciality Eye Hospitals’ journey is Dr. Kasu Prasad Reddy, a distinguished ophthalmologist and surgeon whose commitment to restoring vision has shaped the organisation’s three-decade legacy. Founded in 1996 by Dr K. P. Reddy, Maxivision began with a clear objective: to deliver high-quality eye care that combines clinical excellence, compassion and accessibility.

Today, the institution’s continued growth and expansion across India is being guided by Dr GSK Velu, Chairman and Managing Director of Maxivision, whose leadership has played a decisive role in strengthening the network’s scale, infrastructure and long-term vision. Under his stewardship, Maxivision has expanded its footprint across multiple states, bringing together experienced specialists, modern medical technology and patient-focused care within a unified healthcare network.

This combination of founding clinical leadership and strategic expansion has helped establish Maxivision as one of the country’s fastest growing eye care networks, with hospitals and specialist centres across Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Kerala, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu.

Telangana and Andhra Pradesh: A Strong Clinical Foundation

In Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, Maxivision’s presence is anchored by highly experienced ophthalmologists who have played a central role in expanding advanced ophthalmic services across the region.

Dr C. Sharat Babu, an eye care leader with more than three decades of experience, has performed a remarkable number of cataract surgeries during his career. His expertise and leadership have contributed significantly to strengthening specialised eye care services across both states, helping thousands of patients regain clear vision.

Another respected name in the region is Dr K. Subba Rao, an accomplished ophthalmologist based in Hyderabad with more than 40 years of experience. Known for his meticulous clinical approach and commitment to patient care, Dr Subba Rao has spent decades delivering specialised treatment while contributing to the evolution of modern ophthalmic practices.

In Andhra Pradesh, Dr A. A. V. Ramalinga Reddy has played an important role in expanding access to specialised eye care services. With more than 35 years of experience as an ophthalmic surgeon, his work in Narasaraopet and across Prakasam district has helped bring modern eye care closer to communities that previously had limited access to advanced treatment.

Further strengthening Maxivision’s capabilities in the Hyderabad region are Dr Vasudev Reddy and Dr Vinitha Reddy, both experienced ophthalmologists with more than 25 years of clinical expertise. Their work in Secunderabad focuses on specialised procedures including eyelid surgery, canaloplasty and eye muscle treatments, offering comprehensive solutions for patients with complex ophthalmic conditions.

Gujarat: Advancing Surgical Expertise

Gujarat represents another important centre of clinical strength within the Maxivision network, supported by experienced surgeons who have dedicated decades to advancing ophthalmic treatment.

Dr V. V. Sapovadia, an ophthalmic surgeon with more than 30 years of experience, is widely recognised for his expertise in cataract surgery and surgical precision. His work has contributed significantly to strengthening specialised eye care services across Gujarat.

Dr R. K. Sachdev, an ophthalmic pioneer with more than four decades of experience in advanced eye surgery, has also played an important role in advancing modern ophthalmic treatment in the region. Over the course of his distinguished career, Dr Sachdev has performed numerous complex procedures while mentoring younger ophthalmologists and contributing to the development of strong clinical infrastructure.

In Ahmedabad, the respected team behind SRG Eye Hospital — Dr Sanjay Gandhi, Dr Sharmeel Gandhi and Dr Jaineel Gandhi — brings more than three decades of ophthalmic expertise. Known for delivering specialised eye care supported by advanced medical technology and a dedicated clinical staff, the team continues to strengthen access to advanced ophthalmic treatment across Gujarat.

Kerala: Innovation and Community-Centred Eye Care

In Kerala, Maxivision’s clinical leadership is shaped by specialists known for both surgical innovation and their dedication to community healthcare.

Dr Rani Menon, one of South India’s most respected ophthalmic surgeons, is recognised for her expertise in glaucoma, cataract and squint surgeries. Based in Thrissur, she is known for pioneering surgical techniques that have improved outcomes for patients with complex eye conditions. Her reputation for clinical excellence has attracted patients from across Kerala and neighbouring states.

In North Kerala, P. M. Rasheed has been associated with Malabar Eye Hospitals for more than 25 years, delivering dedicated eye care services across the Malabar region. His work has helped expand reliable and accessible ophthalmic services while strengthening regional eye care infrastructure.

Maharashtra: Expanding Advanced Eye Care in Mumbai

In western India, Maxivision’s presence is supported by highly experienced ophthalmologists who continue to elevate the standards of eye care in Maharashtra.

Dr Niteen Dedhia, an ophthalmic surgeon with more than 38 years of experience, brings extensive expertise in cataract, refractive, glaucoma and keratoconus surgeries. His long-standing clinical experience and dedication to precision treatment have made him a trusted name among patients seeking advanced eye care solutions.

Their collaboration with Maxivision has further strengthened the organisation’s presence in Mumbai, particularly with the launch of Ojas Maxivision Eye Hospitals in Juhu, led by Dr Jigish Gandhi and Dr Suman Nabar.

Tamil Nadu: Advancing Vision Correction and Cataract Care

In Tamil Nadu, Maxivision’s clinical leadership is reflected through specialists who combine modern surgical techniques with extensive experience.

Dr Shibu Varkey, based in Trichy, brings more than 25 years of expertise in advanced cataract procedures using premium intraocular lenses. He is also experienced in refractive surgeries including LASIK and femtosecond LASIK, offering patients access to modern vision correction procedures.

Through his work, patients across Trichy and neighbouring cities benefit from comprehensive eye care supported by advanced ophthalmic technology and personalised treatment approaches.

Way Forward

While Maxivision continues to expand its presence across India and invest in modern medical infrastructure, its defining strength lies in the expertise of the doctors who lead its hospitals. Across regions, experienced ophthalmologists bring decades of surgical skill, clinical judgement and commitment to patient care.

From the pioneering vision of Dr K. P. Reddy, who laid the foundation for the institution in 1996, to the strategic leadership of Dr GSK Velu, who has guided its expansion into a multi-state healthcare network, Maxivision’s journey reflects a sustained commitment to clinical excellence and accessible eye care.

As the network continues to grow, this doctor-led approach remains central to its mission: delivering advanced ophthalmic treatment and restoring the gift of clear vision to patients across India.
