Aravind Eye Hospital, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu |
The hospital is built around this courtyard with a built-in pond. |
We stayed on the second floor. |
This is a little out of context, since this is a picture of me, with my friend Sara, waiting to be seen for an appt. the week before the surgery. |
En route to surgery early the morning of the 17th, this is how dilated my eye was. |
After surgery, eating lunch in our room. |
Gopal waiting in line at the hospital Canteen. |
While I slept the day of surgery, Gopal got his eyes checked, ordered glasses and picked them up the following day. |
The new glasses. |
Leaving the hospital the following day. Including paying a driver, meals, room and surgery, it cost us $580. It would have cost me $7,000 in California. |
