Dr Agarwal's Health Care plans 60 new eye-care centres in 12 months (40 surgical hubs, 20 micro-market clinics), targets sustained 20%+ growth, with 13% revenue from retail eyewear sales competing in Lenskart's space.

Why this matters

Dr Agarwal's is scaling its hybrid model of surgical hubs plus micro-clinics, while leaning harder on eyewear retail to compete with Lenskart in optical alongside its clinical core.

Store-opening activity remains steady with 84 signals in the last 90 days.
