Akhand Jyoti Eye Hospital

What Akhand Jyoti Eye Hospital does

Akhand Jyoti Eye Hospital is a non-profit super-specialty eye care network operated by Yugrishi Shriram Sharma Acharya Charitable Trust, headquartered in Mastichak, Saran district, Bihar, India. Founded in 2006, it has grown over 20+ years into Eastern India's largest super-specialty eye hospital network, comprising 5 specialty eye hospitals and 49+ eye clinics across Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, supported by 880+ beds, 11 operation theatres, and a 2,07,000 sq ft flagship facility. The hospital performs over 1,85,500 eye surgeries annually (including 500+ cataract surgeries per day at peak throughput) and serves 24,59,500+ patients annually, anchored by a high-volume PHACO cataract surgery model and covering subspecialties including glaucoma, retina, cornea, squint, amblyopia, and pediatric ophthalmology.

The core technology stack centers on PHACO phacoemulsification cataract surgery using world-class surgical equipment, in-house high-quality spectacle lens production (with 1-year warranty and 1-hour delivery), and virtual surgical simulation tools for resident training. Vertically integrated academic programs — DNB Ophthalmology residency, fellowships in comprehensive ophthalmology and vitreoretina, and a Bachelor of Optometry degree — function both as talent pipeline and reputational anchor. Revenue is generated through clinical services (consultations, diagnostics, surgical procedures across the ophthalmology subspecialties), sale of in-house spectacles and optical products, and academic program fees, all delivered through an owned hospital/clinic network with appointment booking via website, phone, and WhatsApp. Pricing is not publicly disclosed but the model emphasizes affordability for rural underserved populations in Bihar and Eastern UP.

In May 2026, Akhand Jyoti entered a transformative partnership with the Adani Group, which committed over Rs 700 crore through the Adani Foundation, Gautam Adani's personal contribution, and the Adani Akhand Jyoti Foundation to build the Adani Centre for Eye Diseases and the Adani Training Centre for Ophthalmic Sciences at Mastichak. The partnership targets scaling surgical throughput to approximately 6 lakh eye surgeries per year and training 1,000 ophthalmology professionals annually, positioning the network as the world's largest rural eye-care platform and extending its reach into northern and central India.
