Meet Our Clinical Team

Board-Certified Vision Therapy
Specialists & Clinical Leadership

Rabindra Kumar Pandey and Priya Pandey founded Caring Vision Therapy in 2009 with a straightforward goal: to give patients in India access to the same standard of neuro-optometric care available at the best clinics in the world. Sixteen years and 20,000+ patients later, both founders still see patients every week.

Rabindra Kumar Pandey

Founder & Optometric Director

M.Optom COVD/OVDRA Fellow & Member FAAO MCOptom-UK Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation Vision Therapy Specialist

Rabindra Kumar Pandey started Caring Vision Therapy in 2009 with one conviction: that too many patients were being dismissed with a "your eyes are fine" when something was clearly going wrong with their vision. A board-certified neuro-optometric rehabilitation specialist, he brings 16 years of focused clinical experience to every patient he sees, having treated more than 10,000 individuals with functional vision disorders, learning-related vision problems, and neurological visual dysfunctions.

His particular interest lies in the intersection of vision and neurology: specifically how disruptions in the way the eyes and brain communicate can affect reading, learning, attention, and recovery after brain injury. He holds fellowship with the College of Optometrists in Vision Development (COVD), is a Fellow of the American Academy of Optometry (FAAO), a Member of the College of Optometrists UK (MCOptom), and an active member of the Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation Association (NORA), bringing internationally recognised clinical standards to practice in India.

The most important thing we do is listen. A thorough clinical history, combined with the right functional tests, tells us almost everything we need to know, and it prevents us from treating the wrong problem.

Priya Pandey

Founder & Clinical Director

M.Optom NORA Affiliated Member Paediatric Vision Therapy Binocular Vision Specialist

Priya Pandey has spent 16 years doing one thing exceptionally well: understanding how a child sees the world and why that sometimes needs help. As co-founder and Clinical Director, she leads the paediatric vision therapy programme at Caring Vision Therapy, working with children from early developmental stages through adolescence, and has treated more than 10,000 young patients with binocular vision disorders and learning-related vision dysfunction.

Her focus is on the functional side of vision: how the eyes converge, track, and process information, and what happens when any of those systems are not working as they should. Priya is a member of the Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation Association (NORA) and the Indian Optometric Association (IOA), and works closely with paediatric occupational therapists and educational specialists to support children in school settings.

Children do not always know how to describe what they are experiencing. Our job is to notice the signs they cannot articulate, and then explain what we found in language their parents actually understand.

Why Choose Our Team

What Makes Our Clinical
Team Different

We are not the largest clinic in India. But we are among the most focused. These are the things our patients notice when they choose to work with us.

Both Founders Still Practising

Rabindra and Priya see patients every week. This is not a clinic managed by administrators while clinicians work in the background. You meet the people who built this practice.

Diagnosis Before Anything Else

We do not recommend therapy until we are certain of the diagnosis. Our comprehensive functional vision evaluations cover 20+ parameters, and every finding is explained before we suggest a next step.

No Over-Treatment, Ever

We only recommend vision therapy when the clinical evidence supports it. If your concern does not require therapy, we will say so clearly and direct you toward whatever actually helps.

Outcomes You Can Measure

Progress in vision therapy should be visible and verifiable. We set clear benchmarks, track every metric, and run formal re-evaluations so you can see exactly how far you have come.

What Our Patients Say

Trusted by Families Across India & Globally

Convergence Insufficiency

My son had been struggling with reading for two years before we came to see Rabindra. The assessment was more thorough than anything we had experienced before, and the therapy plan was explained clearly at every stage. Within a few months his reading stamina had improved significantly and the headaches had stopped.

Priya M. Parent, Chennai
Binocular Vision Disorder

Priya spent a long time understanding our daughter's history before she even started the formal assessment. That same care ran through the entire therapy programme. The results genuinely changed how our daughter engages with school, and we appreciated the honesty at every step about what to expect and when.

Rajesh K. Parent, Hyderabad
Post-TBI Vision Rehabilitation

Following my traumatic brain injury I struggled with visual fatigue, double vision, and an inability to read for more than a few minutes. Rabindra's telehealth rehabilitation programme systematically addressed each issue with measurable checkpoints throughout. My reading ability is now largely restored and I was able to return to work.
