We believe everyone deserves to see clearly — regardless of where they live or what they earn.
SBM Pathshala was born from a simple observation: in a country where billions of people use smartphones daily, basic vision screening still requires a hospital visit. Long queues, high fees, and the inconvenience of taking time off work mean that millions of people walk around with uncorrected vision, never knowing it.
We set out to change that. By combining decades of optometric science with the technology already in your pocket, SBM Pathshala makes preliminary eye testing accessible, fast and free. Our app guides you through scientifically validated screening exercises and helps you understand when it's time to see a specialist.
To put basic vision care within reach of every person — to help one million people identify a vision problem they didn't know they had, and to make eye health a part of everyday wellness, not an emergency.
Our screenings are based on standards used by professional optometrists. No shortcuts.
Eye care should not depend on income, location or language. We design for everyone.
Your test results belong to you. We never sell, share or analyze your data without consent.
From visual design to clinical accuracy, we sweat the details. Your eyes deserve nothing less.
Our screening tools are designed in collaboration with practicing ophthalmologists and grounded in peer-reviewed research. We continuously update our methodology as the science evolves. The app does not replace a clinical exam, but it identifies when one is needed — and that small step is often the difference between catching a problem early and discovering it too late.
"Pathshala" means a place of learning. We chose it because eye care begins with awareness — knowing your eyes, knowing your habits, knowing when to act. Our brand promise — Learn. Grow. Succeed. — is what we want every user to experience: learn about your vision, grow into healthier habits, succeed in every part of life that depends on clear sight.
We love hearing from our users. If you have a question, a suggestion, or a story to share, write to us at support@sbmpathshala.com. We read every message.
