Thank you, Dr Vinay Garodia.
Aviral Medcare did not start in a product meeting. It started with a practising eye surgeon describing, in detail, everything a general hospital system could not do for an eye hospital.
Where the idea came from
Most hospital software is written outward from a general ward and adapted towards a specialty. This one was written the other way round.
An eye hospital does not run like a small general hospital. The record it keeps is different — a refraction is not a vital sign, an IOL is not a consumable, and an injection series is not a prescription. Software that treats them as such makes the clinic work around the software.
Dr Vinay Garodia set out the other version: what an eye-care record should actually hold, in what order the desks should hand it along, and which of those handovers were costing a working day. That direction is why this product is an eye-specialty EMR rather than a general one with extra fields bolted on.
Refraction
The refraction workup
Four vision tests per eye, auto-refractor readings recorded objectively, and the accepted values that become the glass prescription.
SPH · CYL · AXIS · ADD
Implant
The IOL master
Lenses tracked by brand, power and batch, issued against a named patient at implant, so a recall is a search rather than a store-room afternoon.
Brand · Power · Batch · Expiry
Injection series
The injection series
Intravitreal and anti-VEGF doses logged by eye, drug and date, with the next due date on the record and the missed ones surfaced rather than forgotten.
Eye · Drug · Dose no. · Next due
Theatre
The eye theatre
A surgical checklist that runs before induction, before incision and before the patient leaves — recorded against the case, not signed off on paper afterwards.
Eye · Surgeon · IOL · Anaesthesia
What the idea became
A theatre list where the procedure, the eye, the surgeon and the implant sit on one row — because in an eye hospital they are one decision.
One record
Refraction, prescription, theatre, implant and bill are the same record — not five systems reconciled at the end of a day.
Eye-specialty fields
SPH, CYL, AXIS and ADD, IOP per eye, IOL brand, power and batch, injection doses by eye and drug. Places to put them, not free-text notes.
Fifteen roles
View, create, edit and delete permissioned module by module, with each branch's records scoped to that branch.
English and Hindi
Staff work in the language they actually speak — which, outside the metros, decides whether a system gets used at all.
Every name and number in that capture is synthetic. See the other seven screens.
And everyone who kept correcting it
An EMR is not finished when it ships. It is corrected, every day, by the people who have to use it while a waiting room fills up.
- The front desk, who found every gap between a booking and an arrival
- The optometrists, who insisted an accepted refraction is not a free-text note
- The counsellors, who knew what a patient asks before they agree to surgery
- The theatre team, who would not let a checklist be something signed afterwards
- The pharmacy and store, who live with batch numbers and expiry dates
- The accounts desk, who reconcile what everyone else recorded
An idea, credited.
Software gets a brand name and a website. The clinical thinking behind it usually goes uncredited. This page exists so that this one does not.
