Plan your visit

Before you visit —
a few things worth
knowing.

What a first visit looks like

Plan for about 60 to 90 minutes. The first appointment usually includes a full history, vision and refraction testing, an assessment of eye alignment and binocular function, and — where relevant — dilated examination.

If your visit is for a child, you are encouraged to stay in the room throughout the examination. Drops are explained before they go in. The pace is set by your child.

What to bring

  • Any current or past spectacle prescriptions, ideally the spectacles themselves.
  • A list of medications, particularly any drops being used.
  • Previous eye reports, scans or surgical notes, if available.
  • For children: the most recent school vision report.
  • Photo ID for clinic registration.

If surgery is involved

Surgeries take place at Sir H.N. Reliance Foundation Hospital.

All routine consultations happen at the Eye Align clinic in Grant Road. Where a procedure is required, Dr. Parekh operates at Sir H.N. Reliance Foundation Hospital, Mumbai — where full anaesthetic, paediatric and post-operative support is available. Pre-operative evaluation, the surgery itself, and all follow-ups are handled personally by Dr. Parekh.

Frequently asked

Questions we hear often.

At what age should a child be screened for squint?
A first paediatric eye check is reasonable around 6 months, and any persistent eye misalignment after 4 months of age deserves an evaluation. The earlier squint is detected, the more options are available.
Does every squint need surgery?
No. Many cases are managed with glasses, prism lenses, or supervised orthoptic exercises. Surgery is recommended only when conservative options cannot achieve binocular alignment.
Can adults be treated for squint?
Yes. Adults with long-standing or newly developed strabismus can often be treated — surgically or non-surgically — with real functional and cosmetic improvement.
What should I bring to my first visit?

Any previous prescriptions, a list of medications, and (for children) any school vision reports. Allow about 60–90 minutes for the first consultation.
Where are surgeries performed?
At Sir H.N. Reliance Foundation Hospital in Mumbai, where Dr. Parekh consults as an ophthalmologist.
