GEF Eye Hospital
GEF Eye Hospital, Chintamani
With effect from 5th October 2022, we moved to new premises and started functioning independently as GEF Chintamani, providing specialized eye care services to the Chintamani region.
GEF Eye Hospital, Chintamani serves the people of Chintamani town and the broader Chikkaballapur district, bringing comprehensive ophthalmic care closer to a population that previously had to travel long distances for specialist eye treatment.
The hospital is equipped with a well-appointed Out Patient Department featuring modern slit-lamp bio-microscopes, autorefractometers, and fundus imaging capabilities. Surgical facilities include a fully functional Operating Theatre capable of performing cataract surgeries, minor lid procedures, and other routine ophthalmic operations.
As with all GEF hospitals, Chintamani operates on the 70–30 charitable model — providing the majority of consultations and surgeries either free of charge or at highly subsidised rates. The hospital also conducts regular outreach camps in the surrounding villages, partnering with local organisations to screen for refractive errors, cataracts, diabetic eye disease, and glaucoma.
The team at Chintamani is supported by visiting specialists from the Hosakote flagship centre, ensuring that patients requiring advanced care are triaged and referred appropriately without the need to travel to Bangalore city.
