Dr. Mamta Vadhel — Consultant Ophthalmologist in Mumbai

Dr. Mamta Vadhel is a Consultant Ophthalmologist at Medicover Hospital in Navi Mumbai, with more than 18 years of experience. Her qualifications are MBBS, MS and DNB in ophthalmology, with FVRS and FICO.

Her practice sits almost entirely at the back of the eye. Vitrectomy, retinal detachment surgery, macular hole surgery and epiretinal membrane surgery are the operations; diabetic retinopathy and age-related macular degeneration are the two diseases that fill retinal clinics worldwide; and anti-VEGF intravitreal injection is the drug treatment that holds both of them. Cataract surgery is also listed, which matters because vitrectomy often hastens a cataract and the same surgeon can then deal with it.

Her FVRS is a fellowship in vitreo-retina surgery and her FICO was a fellowship in ocular oncology at Wills Eye Hospital in the USA, awarded through an ICO award. Besides Medicover Hospital in Kharghar, which her record notes as NABH-accredited, she is associated with Sai Drishti Eye Hospital and Shivam Eye Foundation in Navi Mumbai, and she serves as an NABH assessor.

She is a member of the All India Ophthalmological Society, the Bombay Ophthalmology Association and the Maharashtra Ophthalmology Society.

Her academic record began with best paper at MPSOS in 2011 and best postgraduate paper at MPSOS in 2012. She sits on the advisory board for aflibercept, one of the anti-VEGF drugs she uses, and in 2025 she was a surgical skill transfer training teacher at APAO, teaching the operations rather than only presenting results.
