  • I was suffering from acute keratoconus in the right eye , and my case was a very typical one as it was only in one eye and that too progressed very rapidly, when I went to Dr. Maskati for consultation he gave me the best possible option for my case, and I was scheduled for a DALK surgery (cornea transplant) within only 15 days!!! Of my first consultation, it was a successful surgery and I have been going for regular checkups and my vision has improved tremendously and I thank Dr. Maskati for his unparallel support both on the OT & off the OT.”

  • I have been Dr . Quresh Maskati's patient since 2001 and have been suffering from dry eyes. He has improved my eye condition to a great extent. I have undergone two major surgeries. He had performed DALK on my left eye in 2012 and the intra optic lens on my right in 2015. In both the surgeries I had complete reliance on him and today I am feeling much better in terms of vision and the level of dryness as well.

  • Dr. Quresh Maskati had performed an excellent surgery when my retina detached in my right eye. He minimized the loss of vision and was able to save the eye. Subsequently, six years later, I underwent a cataract surgery also in the same eye by him and that too was a success . I am very pleased with the surgical skills of Dr. Maskati and recommend his services to anyone seeking any form of eye treatment.

  • My name is Huzefa.Bhopalwala and I am twenty one years of age, currently in third year MBBS . I was diagnosed with Retinal detachment in the right eye in April 2013 and was operated on by Dr.Quresh. Maskati. This happened 20 days before my university exams of First year MBBS. Not only did Dr. Maskati successfully operate on me , but also assured my family and me that I would completely regain my sight after the surgery and that there was nothing to worry about . His kind and assuring words helped me remain calm and study for my exams without any worries. I got a second retinal detachment in February 2014 , this time in the left eye. The risk of complications was higher this time. I was told by one of the other doctors that I had a fifty percent chance of regaining complete vision . Dr. Maskati was confident enough that all would go well and just like in the right eye, I would regain complete vision. He operated on me without wasting any precious time and just like he had said , the surgery was successful and I regained complete vision . Dr. Maskati is not only an excellent ophthalmologist , but also a wonderful human being . His faith and belief that all would turn out for the good, helped me with both my surgeries . His enthusiasm to help the society was observed by me , when I approached him for a medical symposium on Organ Donation. He gave us his precious time and also listed down measures to increase corneal donations in India . He is a true inspiration for budding medicos like me. I am thankful to him beyond words . May God bless him and help him achieve even greater heights.

  • Dr. Quresh Maskati of Mumbai, India, has been treating me for the past 15 years for all my optical problems, including human cornea transplant surgeries. Three years ago, he performed Artificial Cornea (imported from Boston) Transplant surgery in both my eyes - a new and upcoming method - that we had only read about. Thanks to his knowledge and steady hands during the surgery, clear vision has been finally restored in both my eyes. I have now normal vision and can read the tiniest of print without any glasses. He has helped us tremendously through our struggle. He has been most patient with us, answering all our questions and putting us at ease during this difficult time.Thank you very much!!!
