Dear Friends,


I have a health insurance policy from CARE Health Insurance. The policy specifically mentions that I am a Person With Disability & my disability is 100% blindness. The company issued me the policy on condition that no eye-related ailments or injuries would be covered except when they were caused by an accident. The waiting period for pre-existing diseases was 1 year.

Hi everyone,

I wanted to clarify a few points regarding Niva Bupa based on my experience. According to my agent, the only standard exclusion is dental-related issues, unless they are caused by an accidental injury. Most companies follow this same policy for dental care. I am not aware of any specific exclusions for eye-related issues, but I will confirm this tomorrow.

Otherwise, Jyoti is correct—the policy covers everything from the start. They also provide one free full-body checkup every year. In my case, I disclosed my diabetes, and it was covered after the initial 30-day waiting period. I have already utilized the free health checkup, which is valued at approximately ₹3,000. Additionally, I received a 30% discount by paying a three-year premium upfront.

Best regards,

Nitinbhai Patel

    Yes, Niva Bupa Max health insurance is giving insurance to
    visually  impaired people. Only the restriction is that they don’t
    ensure I related problems. Other than that, they cover everything.
    And one can get claim, also  if the case is genuine

        Hi everyone,

        I wanted to share my thoughts as I’m also visually impaired
        and understand firsthand how difficult it is to get health
        insurance. In many cases, insurers are hesitant or outright
        unwilling to offer policies to visually impaired people, which
        makes the process frustrating and exhausting.

        Recently, I’ve started working with a few insurers to help
        members of our community get health insurance and better
        understand what options are realistically available. I’m
        trying to bridge this gap as someone who has faced the same
        challenges.

        If anyone needs help or guidance around health insurance, feel
        free to reach out to me. Happy to help in any way I can.

        I currently have Niva Bupa health insurance. My policy
        explicitly mentions that I am visually impaired, and I have
        provided my disability certificate as documentation. Because
        this is disclosed, blindness should not be a basis for claim
        rejection. In my experience, I believe it is a good brand to
        consider.

        Best regards,

            This is even my concern also please let me know about
            health insurance for people with visual impairment not
            with policybazaar or other third party but any private
            good insurance company who has good claim results

                My curiosity is, are you able to claim it? Given no
                Indian citizenship? Because OCI obviously has
                restrictions so I wouldn’t even think about insurance
                in India.

                    Hello friends,
                    I am looking for the best option for a private
                    health insurance in India for visually impaired
                    persons. This is for myself residing in Mumbai.
                    Please do advise as to apply for the same.

                    Thanks and warm regards,
                    Manoj
