On this page, Dr. Rahul Shroff, one of the leaders of the Shroff Eye Hospital near Mumbai (India), presents his clinic. In addition, he describes his cooperation with ZEISS in introducing the FORUM® eye care data management solution.
Shroff Eye Clinic was set up by Dr. C.N. Shroff in 1919 in a western suburb of Mumbai. We are always at the forefront in introducing new technological advancements in ophthalmology to our practice. In 2003, we opened another center, "Shroff Eye Hospital" about 25 kms away from our first clinic. Today, both our centers offer patients high quality medical diagnosis and treatment under the leadership of Dr. Ashok Shroff (General Ophthalmologist), Dr. Rahul Shroff (Vitreo-retinal Surgeon) and Dr. Anand Shroff (Anterior segment Surgeon).
Both centers are equipped with latest technology from ZEISS such as CIRRUS™ OCT, Stratus OCT™, HFA, VISULAS YAG, VISULAS 532s, IOL Master®, ATLAS™, VISUPAC® 451, OPMI LUMERA® 700 and VisuMax®. Thus, we are equipped to provide high quality diagnosis and treatment to our patients, including many VIP's.
Problems we faced before included not having proper patient database management and the patient education system. Printouts and local data transfer methods which we used in the past were inefficient, ineffective and complex. These practices additionally carried the risk of losing important data. Very often, we had to go to each instrument to explain the diagnosis to the patient. This used to take up a lot of our effective time and it increased the waiting time of our patients. We were relieved of all these problems when the engineers from ZEISS demonstrated the FORUM eye care data management solution, which we incorporated in our practice immediately.
