ROP - never delay !

 People always say that small things make bigger difference. Well ! I have heard about ROP and it was just another disease which I learnt in my ocular diseases class. But when I started my fellowship, I was asked to prescribe glasses for a 8 months old baby and was perplexed by the situation. From there I started to learn, it was not that easy task and how important it is to help those babies. The happiness on their parents' face when those babies identify objects, the smile on babies faces when they try to grab those objects, everything started feeling different all of a sudden. All these things helped me to grow. 


Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is mostly seen in babies who are premature born. You should be really careful in examining these babies. It must be done within 30 days of life even if the child is in the NICU.The earlier you get a eye examination done, the earlier the baby receives the light to life. I also feel grateful to have worked with few of the phenomenal people in this field who literally has made a huge difference in those babies' life. Also thankful to those who taught me the importance of gift to sight !

There, for me !

 Once a upon a time.. when I was a little kid. I used to be around my Dad always. In every single pic, it was just the two of us together, always. Time flew, he started scolding me, we started to have different opinions on anything and everything. At times, it became difficult to stick around with each other. There were months we never talked to each other or faced each other even though we were under a same roof.



Years passed away. I left home for studies and the first night at my hostel. I was terrified, anxious, excited and started crying. All of a sudden the only number I dialled that time was Dad's. From their, it took a turn, I will not say it is perfect now, but its all what I have. No matter what, I know, I can run back to him. He will scold me, but he will be there, always❤️

When Banglore became "Bengaluru" 💚



A city which taught me the best lessons, give me best people, best memories and a better version of me !

For me Bangalore was : Party hub, Terrific traffic, busy life

What I explore in Bangalore : Beautiful gardens, peaceful lakes, beautiful weather

Yes, I always complained how crowded the city was and how busy people were. But slowly I tuned into the rhythm of this marvellous city.

 For new comers, its a place of hope and dreams. For residents, its the most comfortable place to live in.

And for people like me, it's a fascination which I never thought will become mine !

Bengaluru, you have the best and you are the best !

Cheers to the city who taught me to explore !

PS : Thanks to all my people there for making me feel home ! (attaching a small video snaps which I took in Bengaluru)
