Grewal Eye Institute (GEI) on Tuesday announced the opening of its new Eye Hospital in New Chandigarh, inaugurated by Governor of Punjab & Administrator, UT Chandigarh, Shri Gulab Chand Kataria, who graced the occasion as Chief Guest along with eminent dignitaries and members of the medical fraternity.
Purpose-built for access, speed, and comfort, the hospital brings advanced diagnostics, modern operating theatres, and a full spectrum of super-specialty eye services under one roof—so that patients experience easy entry, quick service, and world-class outcomes without multiple hops across locations.
Besides strengthening GEI’s promise of safe, compassionate care, the new facility spotlights a suite of precision technologies and patient conveniences: a ZEISS Refractive Suite PR featuring SMILE® Pro for minimally invasive laser vision correction and PRESBYOND® for presbyopia management; PRESBYOND Laser corrects both near & distance vision. EMR-enabled workflows for faster registrations; clear wayfinding; on-premise optical and pharmacy; and carefully engineered sterile pathways in HEPA-filtered, laminar-airflow modular OTs.
Designed for everyday convenience, the hospital offers ample on-site parking with a dedicated drop-off bay, barrier-free and wheelchair-friendly access (wide corridors, ramps and elevators), and a well-connected location with convenient approach roads and public-transport proximity. The result is shorter wait times, coordinated diagnostics, and more face time with doctors.
“At our new hospital in Medicity, we’ve engineered eye care for clarity at every step—from ample parking and barrier-free access to modular OTs and precision refractive technology. With ZEISS SMILE® Pro and PRESBYOND®, disciplined protocols, and a trained team, we deliver safer surgery, faster recovery, and consistently better vision outcomes for North India,” said Dr. S.P.S. Grewal, Founder, Grewal Eye Institute.
“This facility is built around time and trust: quick registrations, coordinated diagnostics, and a one-stop optical & pharmacy ensure patients spend more time with doctors and less time waiting. Our mission is simple—make world-class eye care easy to reach, easy to experience, and dependable for every family we serve,” added Dr. Sartaj Grewal, Medical Director, Grewal Eye Institute.
The Grewal Eye Hospital in Medicity will offer comprehensive services including Cataract (including premium IOLs), Cornea & Ocular Surface, Retina & Vitreous, Glaucoma, Paediatric Ophthalmology & Squint, Oculoplasty, Uvea, Neuro-ophthalmology, and Emergency Eye Care. Under the leadership of Dr. S.P.S. Grewal— a nationally respected cataract and refractive surgeon with decades of surgical experience, medical teaching, and clinical innovation—GEI continues its commitment to evidence-based protocols, continuous team training, and next-generation technology adoption to improve safety and visual outcomes.
Alongside the new facility, GEI will continue to deepen its community-focused initiatives and patient education efforts, reinforcing its long-standing vision of accessible, high-quality eye care for the region.
