An excellent doctor, excellent treatment, very clear explanation of the cause of the problem.
No unnecessary tests, medical jargon, or unnecessary medications.
I remember that two years ago I went with a similar problem to another doctor who recommended something like surgery and referred us to Artemis.
Thank God, I found Dr. Sameer Kaushal, who said that this problem would resolve even without medication.

Much better than at Center for Sight near Leisure Valley Park in Gurgaon.
The consultation cost is 850 rupees.
However, the parking cost is too high — 50 rupees, and finding a parking spot is difficult.
The doctor name is Sameer Kaushal.

This is the first doctor who advised relaxing the eye muscles — wearing glasses of weaker strength or no glasses at all while working.
Nearsighted eyes do not need optics for close objects. Now I use strong glasses only when driving or watching TV.
