Specialization

Technique

- For patients in their 60s and beyond with a cataract, Dr. Satish Modi's practice performs refractive cataract surgery, replacing the clouding lens with an artificial lens to help them see at both distance and near.
Technology
- The light adjustable lens is a technology where we can put a lens implant inside the eye, then go back in the clinic and make adjustments to your lens power
Consultation
- Dr. Satish Modi's practice follows a straightforward adjustment process for the light adjustable lens, involving clinic visits, measurements, computer-designed treatments, and multiple adjustments followed by lock-in treatments.

Industry Payments
Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.
Total received (2024)
$58,139
Payments
63
Compared to peers
Substantially above average
Dr. Satish Modi received $58,139 across 63 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 97% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as consulting fee, and the largest single payer was Alcon Research LLC.
What this means for your care
- A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
- Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
- Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
- A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
