Where we are, and where you are
Bara is a tehsil in the south-west of Prayagraj district, across the Yamuna from the city. Indumati Netralaya is on Meja Road, Near HDFC Bank, Opposite D.G.S Marriage Hall, Meja, Prayagraj. We say plainly that the hospital is in Meja rather than in Bara — but for Bara town, Shankargarh and the villages of the Yamuna belt, it is the nearest NABH Entry Level certified eye hospital, and it is a great deal closer than Prayagraj city.
Free surgery under Ayushman Bharat
If you hold an Ayushman Bharat (PM-JAY) card, or qualify under the UP DBCS scheme, your eye operation is free — the surgery, the lens and the follow-up visits. This applies wherever in the district you live. Bring the card and your Aadhaar; our team checks eligibility before anything is scheduled, so you know where you stand before you commit to a date.
Spectacles and contact lenses are not covered by the scheme. We say so here rather than at the counter.

- Diabetic eye disease — retina screening for anyone with sugar

Getting here from Bara
From Bara and Shankargarh, cross towards Meja Road. Call us for the route from your village — it is often shorter than going through the city. We are open 9am to 6:30pm, Monday to Saturday. Call +91 80815 65880 before you travel — it costs nothing and it means you are not making the journey on a day that does not suit.
Free eye camps
We run free eye camps across the villages of Prayagraj, Mirzapur and Kaushambi — screening people where they live, rather than waiting for them to travel. If you want to know when the next camp is near Bara, or you want to request one for your village, call us or see the camps page.
