Seeing Beyond Sight
Transforming Lives With Drashti Netralaya

A moving account of how one couple’s devotion has transformed thousands of lives, this book is a well-deserved gift from e Sarva Mangal Family Trust (SMFT) and Manu and Rika Shah. It chronicles the extraordinary journey and sacrifices of Dr Mehul Shah and Dr Shreya Shah, the visionary founders of Drashti Netralaya, a charitable eye hospital in Gujarat.
For the Shahs, medicine is not just a profession but a lifelong mission to eliminate avoidable blindness, particularly among underprivileged communities who lack access to basic healthcare. The narrative delves into their commitment to eye care and beyond. For Dr Mehul and Dr Shreya, restoring sight is only the first step towards restoring dignity, independence, and opportunity.
The book captures how their hospital combines medical excellence with compassion, creating a model where healthcare is not a privilege but a right. It also reflects their belief that wellbeing extends beyond the physical—it encompasses emotional, social, and economic empowerment. Designed with compelling visuals and heartfelt testimonials, this publication is both a tribute to their work and an inspiration for the larger philanthropic community.
