Ballia patients on the Uttar Pradesh side of the border come to Madhavi Netralaya in Ara — about 78 km and roughly 1 hour 50 minutes via Buxar and NH 922 — for cataract, retina, and glaucoma care.
Ballia district sits just west of Buxar. Patients already crossing for markets and hospitals continue to Ara when they need a surgical eye campus: stitchless cataract surgery, retina imaging and treatment, and glaucoma laser, with the quote explained before any procedure. State of residence does not change the clinical pathway.
The published road distance is about 78 km via NH 922, around 1 hour 50 minutes. Most of that drive is the Buxar–Ara stretch after you cross toward Bihar. A morning appointment keeps the day contained. Usual cataract cases are day-care, so an overnight stay in Ara is not the default plan.
Bring an identity document you already use for travel, plus old glasses and reports. If you are comparing a Varanasi or Patna trip, Ara is the nearer Zeiss campus for many Ballia families — confirm the live drive time before you choose.
