Dr. Agarwal’s Eye Hospital has planned to expand its services across India. The organisation has received equity investment of ₹1,050 crore from two companies, Temasek, a Singaporean company and Texas Pacific Group, a US-based investor. The eye clinics will come up in smaller towns.
Both investors would be represented in the hospital’s board, said Amar Agarwal, chairman of Dr Agarwal’s Group of Eye Hospitals. “By 2023-24 we will be touching 200 hospitals,” he said. The group has 105 hospitals currently, including 15 in Africa.
The group has planned to add 500 eye care centres in tier 2 and tier 3 cities. These centres would offer tele-ophthalmic services.
