Our aim is to take eye care closer to the people who can’t reach our centres. 

A comprehensive eye examination is conducted, and the details are uploaded to the LVPEI Connect application and made available to an ophthalmologist, who offers a teleconsultation. 

The patient receives an electronic report with key observations, diagnosis, management plan, prescription for glasses and medicines, if any. For future consults within LVPEI eye care system, this data is seamlessly made available.

There is no app, but you can call us on the phone numbers listed on this page.

While we have no special focus, data from home care provided at urban locations over the last 2 years show more women (58%) were served compared to men in this period.

We hope to observe similar trends in the project locations too.

Similarly, our staff who visit patient’s home are provided helmets, rain covers and vehicles are GPS tracked. Further, staff are trained to communicate the process of examination to the patient and care giver.
