Patient Information

Schedule a Consultation

Patients all over the world seek Dr. Gulani not only for what is considered “routine” (we believe each case is unique) vision corrective surgery, but also for complex cases, second opinions (including complication correction of their eye surgeons). Given that Dr. Gulani approaches each patient uniquely in his personalized patient consultations we categorized these consultations into the following categories.

Types of Advanced Vision Consultations:

• Advanced Refractive Consult (ARC): This is a personal consultation with Dr. Gulani for patients with vision errors (glasses & contact lens prescriptions) like nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia; including extreme and irregular refractive errors which will usually require an elective, vision corrective surgery.
• Refractive Complication Consult (RCC): This is a personal consultation with Dr. Gulani where patients with previous refractive and premium surgery elsewhere are seeking correction of their vision and or complications therein.

These ARC and RCC are dedicated consultations beyond routine medical visits. You will meet with Dr. Gulani in an extensive consultation, including advanced diagnostic testing and review of your previous records, as he plans for a uniquely custom-designed surgery for your best vision potential.

• Medical Consult (AVC): This consultation is for a patient looking for an evaluation of their eye health and medically related conditions. In your detailed evaluation with Dr. Gulani, you will undergo necessary diagnostics and understanding of your eye health, as well as a custom-designed plan of action for your best vision potential. We do not accept medical insurances, but for a nominal fee, you can avail of Dr. Gulani’s world-renown expertise and over 3 decades of experience to begin your own “Gulani Vision Experience” in a one on one, no-rush, comfortable environment.

The type of consultation is decided by our institute based on your telephone request, email, or any correspondence modality, wherein we can judge your situation and may even set up for a personal teleconference (mostly for out of State/Country patients) with Dr. Gulani to further understand your needs. That information along with possible records review and history then allows us to dedicate the appropriate resources, time, and personnel.

* Personal Teleconference:

We do allow for a personal teleconference with Dr. Gulani for patients traveling to us from all over the world in an effort to provide them an opportunity to review any questions, concerns and expectations before spending time and monies to travel to us. For a fee, our team will arrange for you to speak directly with Dr. Gulani who will have prepared for your call, having studied your sent records, eye doctor’s reports and reviewed his plan of action while educating you and explaining his philosophies related to your particular situation.
