Another step towards “our vision”;
To help improve “your vision”
 

Dear Friends,

Greetings to all our well-wishers once again. Nethradhama is extremely happy and proud to inform all our friends that we have become the first eye hospital in India to be conferred with the
ISO 9001:2008 certification. While the previous ISO certification focused on quality within the hospital and its processes, the new standards also focus on the outsourced processes in service delivery. This ensures that the hospital monitors the quality of services provided by the outsourced processes, such as Opticals. It is also a matter of pride for us that our optical showroom, Suman opticals, was awarded the “Best Showroom for Varilux progressive Lens” by Essilor for the year 2008.

 

Continuous Quality improvement is a mantra which Nethradhama swears by, and we strive to achieve excellence in all aspects of patient care. Patient information and education is one of our main focus areas and every individual is cared for by the team of doctors, counselors and coordinators, offering personalized care. We believe that our emphasis on quality & safety helps us to sail through all the external quality audits.

Our annual report day, held in May 2009, offered us an opportunity to evaluate ourselves with respect to the results of our medical care and patient satisfaction, in the previous financial year. We have come quite a long way from when we started 16 years ago to now when we have become the first super speciality eye hospital in India to gain both the NABH and ISO 9001:2008 certification. We hope to continue in this same spirit of constant improvement.

This issue contains news of recent happenings at Nethradhama along with a write-up about Conjunctivitis (Madras eye). We wish you happy reading.

Regards,
Editorial committee.

CONJUNCTIVITIS (MADRAS EYE)

An infection of the membranous covering of the eye called conjunctiva is medically termed “conjunctivitis”, known commonly as “Madras eye”. Conjunctivitis is characterized by redness & irritation of eyes, with or without discharge. Infectious conjunctivitis can be caused by bacterial or viral microorganisms. Conjunctivitis is contagious, i.e. it spreads by touch, and hence, proper hand hygiene is very important whenever a person is affected by this disease.

Avoiding touching of eyes, frequent hand-washing and isolation of personal towels/ kerchiefs are essential measures to be taken whenever an outbreak of conjunctivitis is around. Severe infection of the eyes may require antibiotic eye drops and other measures to get symptomatic relief. The vast majority of patients affected with conjunctivitis do not suffer from any visual damage.
