DNB Ophthalmology

At Chugh Eye Surgery Centre, we are deeply committed to the advancement of medical education, especially in the field of ophthalmology. Our mission is to train the next generation of eye care professionals while contributing to the broader goal of improving healthcare accessibility across the nation.

We are proud to be recognized by the National Board of Examinations (NBE) as a certified center for postgraduate training in DNB Ophthalmology, offering two primary seats every year. Admissions are conducted through NEET and centralized counseling, in accordance with NBE regulations. Selected candidates also receive a stipend as per NBE norms.

To enhance learning and presentation skills, students participate in weekly academic seminars, each presenting a PowerPoint presentation on topics relevant to their current curriculum.


As part of their clinical training, students are systematically rotated through various subspecialty OPDs, helping them gain hands-on experience and improve their diagnostic and treatment capabilities. At Chugh Eye Surgery Centre, we strongly emphasize the importance of humility, empathy, and ethical practice in every aspect of patient care.

Through a combination of structured academics, advanced technology, and a compassionate approach, Chugh Eye Surgery Centre strives to shape skilled, ethical, and confident ophthalmologists of the future.
