From Vasco da Gama railway station
The railway station is about 3 km away by road. An auto-rickshaw or taxi from the station to Vaddem is the simplest way.

Dabolim airport is about 5 km away by road; a taxi from the airport to Vaddem, Vasco is the simplest way. If you are flying in from another state, note that Goa has two airports. Dabolim is the one near Vasco; Mopa (Manohar International Airport) is in North Goa and much further away.
From Margao
Margao is roughly 25 to 30 km away by road, usually on the highway through Verna to Cortalim and then on the road to Vasco. Buses also run between Margao and Vasco, and some trains run from Madgaon to Vasco da Gama station; check the timetable before you travel.

From Karwar, Belagavi or Sindhudurg
Plan the day around the journey, and check train and bus timetables before you set out. Come with someone who can take you home, because the drops used in many eye check-ups blur vision for a few hours. If you are coming for cataract surgery, ask how many follow-up visits to plan for before you fix your travel dates.
What should I bring?
- your current spectacles, and your contact lenses with their case if you wear them
- old spectacle prescriptions, eye reports, discharge papers or surgery notes, if you have them
- a list of the medicines you take, or the strips themselves, including any eye drops
- recent blood sugar or BP reports, if you have diabetes or high blood pressure
- the form, if you need an eye fitness certificate for a driving licence, a job or school
- sunglasses, and someone who can take you home
Will eye drops be used, and can I drive home?
For many check-ups the eye doctor puts in drops that widen the pupils (dilating drops) to see the lens and the retina properly. They take a while to work, and afterwards close vision is blurred and bright light feels harsh for a few hours, sometimes longer. Please do not drive a car or ride a two-wheeler until your vision is back to normal. Come with someone who can drive, or plan to take a taxi or bus home. See what a complete eye check-up includes.
Coming for surgery or a follow-up visit?
For cataract surgery and other planned treatment, the preparation, the day of surgery and the follow-up visits are explained at the consultation, together with the fee. Read about cataract surgery at ReNew Vision.
Can I buy spectacles on the same visit?
The Vision Correction Centre is inside the eye hospital, so after your spectacle power test you can choose frames and lenses in the same building. See spectacles and the Vision Correction Centre. Spectacles are not sold online.
Who will examine my eyes?
Patients are examined and treated by our eye surgeon. See our eye surgeon.
