Eye Health – The Care We Often Ignore Until It’s Too Late |

We had the privilege of hosting Dr. Swati Ninadkar in our studio during her visit to Sydney — and what unfolded was a deeply insightful and meaningful conversation on eye health, a subject many of us overlook until problems become serious.

Meet Dr. Swati Ninadkar — a respected ophthalmologist based in Woodville, Adelaide, with over 15 years of experience helping people of all ages see the world more clearly. A proud RANZCO-trained specialist (2015), she is widely loved for blending clinical excellence with a gentle, caring approach that instantly puts patients at ease.

In this episode, Dr. Swati breaks down eye health in a way that is practical, relatable, and easy to understand. We discuss:
• Children’s eye health and why early screening matters
• Cataracts and other eye conditions that are often ignored
• Everyday eye diseases that quietly affect long-term vision
• How delays in care can impact quality of life

Beyond medicine, Dr. Swati also shares her personal journey — moving countries, the challenges of becoming an eye surgeon, and why she chose to dedicate her career to paediatric eye care. Her philosophy is simple yet powerful: listen deeply, explain clearly, and care wholeheartedly.

Her patients often say that visiting her clinic feels like visiting family — never rushed, always heard, and supported with warmth and respect. That same compassion comes through in this conversation.

This podcast is for everyone — parents, caregivers, professionals, and anyone who values long-term health. Whether you’re in Sydney, Adelaide, Australia, or anywhere across the globe, eye health is a universal topic — and awareness starts with conversations like these.

A must-listen episode that reminds us why caring for our eyes early can change lives later.
