Centre For Sight - hisar

We’ve been here at the Gayatri Eye Care Institute in Hisar for a while now. Most days start pretty early because people travel from nearby villages to get their eyes looked at. It can get a bit crowded in the waiting area, especially on Monday mornings when everyone seems to show up at once. The building isn't fancy, but it does the job. Our desks are usually piled with files and we spend a lot of time explaining things to folks who are worried about their vision. Sometimes the tea guy comes late, and that’s a small crisis for the staff. We know most of the regulars by name and their family stories too. It’s just how things are here in Hisar. You see a lot of dust outside on the main road, but inside we try to keep things as clean as possible for the patients. There’s a particular way the light hits the floor in the afternoons. Most of us have worked together for years, so we’ve seen the kids in the neighborhood grow up. We don’t really do big advertisements or anything. People just find out about us from their neighbors or cousins. It’s a busy life, and sometimes the machines act up or the power goes out, but we just get on with it. Working at an eye center means seeing people walk in squinting and hopefully walking out feeling a bit better. That’s the whole point of being here at this spot.
