Dr. Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital is one of the best speciality eye hospitals in North India, with highly accomplished and internationally recognised team of doctors, state of the art facilities and updated technology. This Hospital has seen turn of the century and millennium, a legacy being carried forward since 1914. Padam Shri Dr Sorabji P Shroff, a Fellow of Royal College of Surgeons, UK, had a vision to establish an eye hospital that provided quality eye care services to everyone, especially those who were economically weak. And, from a one-room set-up, the seeds were sown for establishing first eye hospital in North India, from Lahore (now in Pakistan) to Kanpur (then known as Cawnpore). With sustained representations, in 1924, the British Administration made land available in Daryaganj, Delhi. The hospital building was completed in 1927 and inaugurated on March 23rd by Lady Irwin, Vicerene of India.

Mission of the Hospital is ‘to make a lasting impact on the eradication of blindness and deafness in India by providing quality care to all sections of the society’, and its vision is ‘to be the best tertiary eye care and ENT care institution in North India providing quality services to all economic sections of the society.’ Its main focus areas are comprehensive care for Eye and ENT, quality consciousness, knowledge transfer, community impact, research, publication, training, and transparency.
