Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm scans. When booking, repeat the exact scan and macula-report request and ask for someone familiar with the terminology.
Plan follow-ups. For ongoing conditions, ask whether six-month reviews are appropriate; one patient followed this schedule for three years.
Bring questions. Prepare questions in advance: patients say he takes time to explain the diagnosis, findings and treatment clearly.
Ask about necessity. Ask which tests are essential, as one long-term patient valued his approach of avoiding unnecessary tests.

The Bottom Line
Dr. Chidamber B. Srinivas is a retinal specialist (ophthalmologist) in Jumeirah, consulting in Dubai since 2006.
Reviews describe him as especially useful for complex retinal concerns, with patients mentioning central serous retinopathy, macular degeneration, retinal detachment and retinal barrage laser treatment. The strongest pattern is careful diagnosis followed by patient explanations. One long-term patient says he identified the root cause of a critical recurring eye condition after other clinics failed to do so.
Another says he diagnosed and treated a child’s eye condition early enough to support normal school activities. Patients also value practical recommendations and a reluctance to prescribe medicines or order tests unless needed. This is a doctor people return to: families report following him for 15, 20 or even 23 years, and several reviews mention care for children, parents and wider family members.
His calm, soft-spoken manner is repeatedly said to make difficult consultations less intimidating. Urgent appointments have also been accommodated in some cases. There is one important booking warning.
A recent caller said staff misunderstood a request for a scan and macula report and could not arrange an appointment. When calling, confirm the exact test or report you need and ask to speak with someone who understands the request.
