Sadguru Netra Chikitsalaya


Gurudev, Shri Ranchoddasji Maharaj initiated eye care services at Chitrakoot as the first welfare activity in 1950, when the first informal eye camp was organized for the local community in Chitrakoot. The initial eye care activities were organized under the banner of Tara Netra Daan Yagna (TNY) as spirituality and selfless service marked prominence in all activities undertaken by Gurudev and his followers. The eye care activities organized under TNY were run by volunteer doctors who provided their services in ophthalmic care. As the years went by, the demand for eye care services increased and scores of people from all sections of the society started visiting Chitrakoot for eye care services. As the demand grew new eye care specialties were added one by one to the existing ones. What started as informal eye camps in 1950, over the years transformed into a state of the art 350 bedded eye hospital, the largest in Central India.
