Cataract Surgery in Delhi : Insurance Coverage, Cost & Best Surgeons

Cataract surgery coverage depends on your specific individual insurance policy and its cataract limit (disease capping). To confirm eligibility and the approved amount, the hospital insurance team will need your policy details.

Hospitals are available in Delhi (West and South Delhi), as well as in Noida, Gurugram, and Panipat. Senior surgeons include Dr. Dipankar Mahajan, who has around 8 years of surgical experience, and Dr. Rakesh Mahajan, who also consults in OPD. Surgery can usually be scheduled quickly, sometimes even on the same day as consultation, depending on availability.

Operation theater timings typically start from 10 AM onwards, with procedures commonly performed after 12 PM. If your insurance policy includes private room coverage, you generally will not have to pay extra for it. For a 60-year-old patient with controlled BP, a monofocal lens is commonly recommended; it provides clear distance vision but usually requires glasses for near work.

The final package cost depends on the selected lens and insurance approval, so it is best to confirm exact pricing and coverage with the hospital billing team.
