2013-2014Message from the ManagementDear Visionaries,

By the Grace of Lord Almighty and the Blessings of the Sankaracharyas of Kanchi, the year 2013-14 saw the successful implementation of quite a few programmes, taking Sankara Eye Care Institutions to the next level.

As envisaged, Bhojraj Chanrai Sankara Eye Hospital with the financial support from Sri M.B. Chanrai was inaugurated at Malad (West), Mumbai by His Holiness Sankaracharya on 22nd Dec 2013. However, due to the procedural formalities with the Mumbai Municipal Corporation Health Authorities, the Hospital could start functioning only from 1st April 2014.

On 11th Jan 2014, our City Hospital at Kanpur was inaugurated. This City Hospital at Kanpur would support and supplement the Charitable Eye Care activities at the Community Eye Care Hospital, which will be inaugurated in Oct 2014 in order to take the entire Kanpur Unit to a state of self-sufficiency as early as possible.

In Feb 2014, Sankara Eye Hospital, Dr. Babubhai Patel City Centre started functioning in Anand City in Gujarat. As a result of the location of the Base Hospital at Mogar Village, which is around 12 kms from the City, it was decided to have a City Centre, primarily for the paying patients which in turn would help in increased footfall at the Base Hospital.

On a very happy note, we are able to share with all of you that land for Sankara Eye Hospital has been procured at Jodhpur in Rajasthan and Indore in Madhya Pradesh. Chhattisgarh Government is working out on the possibility of providing Sankara land a lower cost in Naya Raipur shortly.

The prestigious IMC Ramkrishna Bajaj National Quality Award for performance excellence in Health Care has been awarded to Sankara Eye Care Institutions India. It is indeed a befitting National recognition for the efforts put in by all of us so far.

The landmark achievement of ’1 Million free eye surgeries’ which took place in March 2013 set the pace for the celebrations during the entire year 2013-14. While the general public at large appreciatied our efforts, we reaffirmed and strengthened our conviction to take the Institution to higher levels in terms of quality and scale.

In the field of Academics and Training, thanks to the efforts of Sankara Academy of Vision, Bangalore and Shimoga Hospitals received the DNB recognition for Post Graduate training of Doctors.

In the field of Staff Welfare, our HR Department has come out with quite a few measures like Family Mediclaim for the Staff and Accident Insurance. These measures, we are sure are going to be of immense value to the extended family members of Sankara.

As a part of strategic plan for the next 5 years, stabilising the existing Hospitals and taking all of them to a level of financial self-sufficiency would be the key for the future of our Institutions. Towards this, an organisational restructuring with specific responsibilities for the various verticals are being worked out. The strategic planning would also include the pacing of the new Hospitals with specific timelines which will allow the existing Units to achieve their full potential.

During the year, all of Sankara Eye Care Institutions put together have reached a financial self-sufficiency of 91%. Once few of the recently started Hospitals get over teething issues and start balancing themselves, we are sure that the self-sufficiency percentage will go up considerably.

Looking at the year 2013-14, we rightly feel that it has been a year of balanced growth and achievements for Sankara Eye Care Institutions - India.

While we pat ourselves on our back for the year’s performance, we are looking forward with optimism towards an exciting and satisfying year ahead.

Dr. S.V. Balasubramaniam Dr. R.V. Ramani Chairman Founder & Managing Trustee

Sri N. Natraj, was an ardent supporter of our humanitarian cause since inception.

A native of Coimbatore, born in the year 1928, Sri. N. Nataraj was very close to our movement. He has been watching the genesis and growth of our Institution since 1977. Couple of years later, when our Diagnostic Wing was set up at Sri Kanchi Kamakoti Medical Centre in Sri Kamakshi Amman Temple, he came out with the support to buy the equipment for the clinical lab. He also started a Medical Centre in the name of his parents and it functioned as a sister Institution of our Group.

In the year 1985, when our Trust was contemplating on starting an Eye Care Institution, he came forward spontaneously to donate on behalf of his family, a 5.26 acres of land, on the outskirts of Coimbatore at Saravanampatti, a very magnanimous gesture indeed.

This was the beginning of Sankara Eye Care. It was the seed for the growth of an institution which is now like a banyan tree spreading its branches of Community Eye Care service across the country.

He was requested to join the Trust Board, wherein he served as a Trustee for 27 long years. He was a Philanthropist, Educationalist and a leading Industrialist in Textiles. He was a very compassionate person, always looking for opportunities to help others.

Sadly we lost him in the year 2014.

On behalf of Sri Kanchi Kamakoti Medical Trust, on behalf of the Doctors, Staff and Volunteers of Sankara Eye Care Institutions – India and on behalf of the millions of the beneficiaries of this movement, we extend our heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family. We pray to Lord Almighty for his soul to rest in peace.

Humble beginning

Sankara was started in 1977 as a small outpatient medical centre volunteering services to the poor. Today, Sankara Eye Care Institutions (SECI) operates 12 super specialty eye care hospitals with presence across 10 states - Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Gujarat, Punjab, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Harayana, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand in India. Its mission has remained focussed on preventing and curing needless blindness across India.

Equitable Eye Care

Sankara was born out of a need to provide quality eye care to all, regardless of socio-economic, religious, linguistic and geographical backgrounds. Once Sankara Eye Hospital was setup in Coimbatore, exclusive outreach camps were conduct-ed to raise awareness, screen and detect eye defects and ailments and treat these.

Outreach Programs

The primary goal of the Community Eye Health Program is to fight against preventable and curable blindness. Today Sankara has a Comprehensive Community Eye Health Programme that provides holistic eye care and tailor made services to address the needs of varied age groups and eye defects.

Adults

Through the Gift of Vision Program, Sankara reaches out to patients through its network of field workers, doctors and paramedics. This outreach program covers rural areas within 300 kms of its super specialty tertiary care base hospital. Screening, investigations are done at onsite camps at the village. Patients requiring treatment and surgery are transported to the base hospital for treatment. Systematic post-operative follow-up is done back at the village.

Children

Sankara has focused its efforts towards eradicating curable blindness in children since 1988 and it is among one of the first in the country to take on such initiatives. Sankara recognizes that the needs of children differ based on their age and hence that the modality of screening would also differ; the institution has unique custom made programs to screen these groups. The important parameters include children screening, spectacles distribution, paediatric surgeries, teacher training and distribution of low vision aids.

Swagatham

Meaning ‘welcome’ in Sanskrit, is a comprehensive Neonatal Screening Program for the new born. Here, new borns are screened for congenital defects at the hospitals. This Program was launched on the 31st of May, 2002.

Maithri

Meaning ‘friend’ in Sanskrit, reaches out to underprivileged pre-schoolers between the ages of 3 and 6 years. This program screens children attending the Integrated Child Development Centres (noon-meal centres), orphanages and thereafter those suspected with visual defects are referred to the hospital.

Rainbow

This is a School Screening Program, where teacher volunteers are identi-fied and trained to do the preliminary screening. The eye care team from Sankara Eye Hospital comprising of an Ophthalmologist and/or Optometrist, visit the schools and screen children for any disease or abnormality of the eye. Children found with eye problems and requiring further treatment are referred to the Base hospital for a comprehensive examination. Children requiring pre-scription lenses (spectacles) are provided them free of cost.

Sankara Eye Bank

Sankara has been instrumental in spreading awareness on eye donations and setting up eye banks in the country. Eye donation drives and outreach camps have resulted in a large number of eye donations. Our hospitals in Coimbatore, Bangalore, Anand, Guntur, Ludhiana and Shimoga have eye banks. Eye banks will be set up at other locations shortly.

Sankara Eye Foundation- USA

From small beginnings, SEF has grown into a big organization, with more than 200 volunteers working from different parts of America. Through various innovative and appealing programs and events, funds are being raised to support SECI in conducting eye surgeries, procuring/modernizing equipments and constructing new hospitals all over the country.

SEF USA, is playing a big role in ‘Vision 20/20 by 2020’. Under this program they are supporting the establishment of 20 eye hospitals spread all over the country by the year 2020. The first such hospital came up in Guntur, AP in 2004. Subsequently hospitals have come up in Krishnankoil, Bangalore, Shimoga, Anand and Ludhiana. As a result, the number of free eye surgeries performed in India has grown exponentially.

Sankara Eye Foundation- Europe

Sankara Eye Foundation Europe was born out of the drive of a handful of individuals based in London in 2005. They harness support in the form of gifts and donations to set up new eye hospitals in India as well as contribute to the running of existing ones.

SEF aims to actively support the free eye surgeries at Sankara Eye Centre in India, by raising funds through events, booths and individual donors.

All work in the UK is done entirely by non-paid local volunteers who donate their time towards this large cause.

Mission for Vision Trust

Mission for Vision Trust is a major Partner in Service with Sankara Eye Care Institutions India participating not only in the establishment of the new hospitals, but also in supporting the deficits in recurring expenditure. Mission for Vision Trust and Sankara Eye Care Institutions-India have a common goal in front of them. They strongly believe that, ‘No one should be needlessly blind’.

While stressing on the community eye care services, Mission for Vision Trust also lays importance on the quality of outcome. Towards this, MFV has put in place a regular ongoing audit on the post-operative patients, around 6 months after the surgery, not only to enquire about their vision and their well-being, but also to evaluate the socio-economic benefit which has been accrued to them.

At Sankara, both paying and free patients are treated with the same quality and care. The 80:20 model has made quality eye care for all, possible.

80:20 is a unique cross-subsidy model wherein 80% of the patients are provided free services at community hospitals with revenues generated from 20% of paying patients at city hospitals. This approach enables our hospitals to attain self-sufficiency in 5 years.

Paying vs Free SurgeriesHighlights:

Every paying patient supports 4 free patients.The Dual model

80:20 is a sustainable model for financial self-sufficiency that has enabled Sankara to scale free eye care services to the rural poor across India.

The approach involves two separate facilities. The city and community hospitals work towards different targets and audiences, yet come together to form a self-sufficient system. This model has been successfully piloted at Coimbatore and Guntur. The 80:20 approach has proven better productivity. Focussed business development has helped bring in more patients, and has also helped us reach self sufficiency in shorter periods.

This cross-subsidizing model has enabled Sankara to multiply the reach and effectiveness of its services. It has helped raise the bar in quality and cut costs at the same time.

Two new facilities were set up at Kanpur and Mumbai this year.

Community Hospitals

80% of Sankara’s patients are treated for free at the community hospitals. These hospitals have been set-up at rural locations with capital funding from donors. The eye care services offered are on par with our city hospitals, offering the best in Ophthalmic care. Sankara’s community hospitals reach out to a large population of needlessly blind and its outreach programs pride itself in being one of the largest in the country.

Over 3.5 lakh patients have been screened and over 1.4 lakh free surgeries performed through our outreach programs this year.

City Hospitals

Sankara’s city hospitals are located at the heart of the city and target an urban audience. Competitive marketing initiatives, monthly programs, collaborations, have been initiated to drive awareness and bring in more patients to our city hospitals. Revenues generated at our city hospitals support the running of the community hospital.

The services offered at our city hospitals are in class with the best eye care facilities; equipped with the finest expertise and state-of-the-art technology at competitive prices. Paying patients have the comfort of well designed facilities, ensuring utmost care.

Over 4.0 lakh outpatients were treated & 29,886 paid surgeries performed across our hospitals this year.

Self Sufficiency for Scale

A model for self sustenance is the key to scale and reach. Separate facilities for urban and rural patients has enabled focussed efforts and optimized processes, without any compromise on quality.

The volume of consumables provides us the buying power to cross-subsidize and bring the costs down. This enables us to deliver consistent value to all and to be self-sufficient at the same time.

Here, money saved is money earned and we ensure every rupee goes a long way to brighten up someone’s life.

This model has enabled Sankara’s facilities become self-sufficient to the tune of 91% on operational expenditure this year.

Sankara is committed to providing free eye care services to the rural poor with the highest standards of quality, care and compassion through its various outreach programs.

Outreach Performance Highlights: Patients screened 2013-14

Our programs have reached out to over 5,85,000 men, women, children, elders & transgenders.

Community Outreach

Sankara’s Gift of Vision program covers rural areas within 300 kms of the community hospital. Screening and investigations are done at onsite camps at the villages. Patients requiring treatment and surgery are transported to the community hospital for treatment. Systematic post-operative follow-up is done back at the village. This is an intense logistics model which requires rigorous planning, resource management and on-field execution.

Field workers operate through a very focussed approach covering villages, taluks and blocks. Door-to-door screening ensures that no one is left out even in the remotest of villages. This year outreach programs have seen improved efficiency and productivity. Sankara has conducted less camps, but has had a larger turnover with conversions of over 75% of surgical cases per camp this year. The political unrest in Andhra Pradesh and the recent floods in Rishikesh, drastically impacted the outreach efforts yet camps went on as and when possible.

Sankara has conducted over 1894 camps with the help of its outreach teams this year, and has achieved a milestone of 1million free surgeries in the last ten years.

Reaching Women & Children

The problem of access to treatment for women is a little more complex. More often than not, the women in villages are paying a heavy price for needless blindness. India’s rural household women are more marginalized than men, and the dependency of the spouse and family leaves her with almost no scope for treatment, not to mention taboos and other cultural barriers she has to overcome. Sankara goes the extra mile to reach out and empower these women through counselling.

Screening early

With children, education and awareness is key. Preventive eye care programs are critical as a blind child can suffer from many more blind years than a blind adult. The approach to working with children is very different and requires a lot of effort.

Government school teachers are an integral part of the program and help Sankara immensely not only in the primary screening process but also in sustaining the effort. Children from challenging environments are most often neglected due to ignorance. Empowering teachers is the only way to reach the children.

Over 4,193 teachers have been inducted into the primary screening process.

Over 7000 children were screened through the Gift of Vision program and 2.7 lakh children were screened through Rainbow program this year.

Everyone matters

Sankara’s outreach efforts are designed to access its varied target audience ranging from men, women, children, elderly and transgenders. This year Sankara took special efforts to reach out to one of the most marginalized communities in our society-transgenders. Vision screening was conducted at Samara Society, a Sexuality Minorities Rights Organization in Bangalore.

159 of them were screened; patients with eye problems were referred to the Base Hospital for treatment.

Sankara has reached out to over 159 transgenders this year.

Veeresh, 9

A child’s vision can fail him, but not his hope. Can you imagine growing into blindness? Veeresh has a condition called Retinitis Pigmentosa a condition that leads to a steady decline of vision, ultimately blindness.

Our Rehabilitation Centre offers support, training and counselling to patients like him as well as their families in taking on this journey one step at a time and in preparing for the future.

Richa, 2 Baby Richa was diagnosed with cataract and squint in both her eyes. She underwent surgery at Sankara and her vision has been significantly restored. Her parents are overjoyed as she now has the promise of a good childhood ahead of her.

Krishna, 15

Krishna misses playing kho-kho with his friends, impaired vision had put him on the bench. But that was just the beginning, his vision gradually got worse making him dependent. Even schools refused him admission.

Life has changed after surgery at Sankara. He has better vision and uses spectacles and a telescope to overcome low vision. Krishna passed his X board exams with a first class. He is now confident than ever before and is pursuing commerce and aspires to become a businessman.

When the glow in the eye indicates a serious disease!

Retinoblastoma is a cancerous growth that occurs in the eye. It can present as a white reflex at the pupil of the eye (Cat’s eye like appearance) or as a squint(crossed eyes). Rarely, if ignored in the early state, it can cause protrusion of the eyeball.

The exact number of children affected by retinoblastoma is not known.Sankara is one of the 10 odd nodal centres (the only one in Karnataka state) of the National Retinoblastoma Registry created by ICMR in India keeping track of the retinoblastoma patients.

Centres with ability to provide comprehensive care for ocular cancers are scarce. Sankara Eye Hospital Bangalore has established an Oncology unit with support from Budhrani Trust and Sight Savers to become one of the 4 centres in the country providing Chemotherapy, Ruthenium Brachytherapy (Radiation), Transpupilary Thermotherapy and Surgical care.

Quick Facts on Retinoblastoma

• Affects 1 in 20000 live births.

• Children frequently present with a white glow or glint in the pupil of one or both eyes in dim lighting. A white pupil seen could be seen in a colour photograph.

• Could be hereditary.

• Treated by a combination of chemotherapy, thermotherapy, brachytherapy (localized radiation) and surgery (if needed).

Department of Ocularistry - Customised Prosthesis

Disfigurement associated with loss of an eye can cause significant physical and emotional problems. Adjusting to functional disability and societal reactions to the facial impairment causes significant stress to most patients.

Sankara Eye Hospital, with support from KIOCL has established a Department of Ocularistry. The newly established clinic fabricates quality custom-made prosthesis for each patient and thus, works towards rehabilitating people across the region with disfigured eyes, cosmetically and socially.

The Centre also trains Optometrists from the Sankara College of Optom-etry in the nuances of the speciality to increase the skilled manpower available to establish similar centres across India.

New centre for Artificial Cornea (Keratoprosthesis) inaugurated at Sankara Eye Hospital, Bangalore

Corneal disease remains the leading cause of blindness amongst children in Asia. Many corneal diseases can be effectively treated by corneal transplantation. While conventional cornea transplant uses donor tissue for transplant, Keratoprosthesis procedures require an artificial cornea.

With a commitment to provide eye care beyond compare, Sankara inaugurated a Centre for Keratoprosthesis & Research with the support of Rotary. The unit, established at a cost of Rs 20 lakhs would be the first one in Bangalore to offer a provision for patients to have the Modified OOKP (Osteo-Odonto Keratoprosthesis).

Under the direction of Dr. Y. Umesh and guidance of Director Dr. J.K. Reddy, a nationally and internationally recognized expert in the realm of corneal diseases, the centre will offer best possible surgical treatment for damaged corneas.

Mobile Vision Centre

Refractive errors and the need for glasses is a public health challenge affecting nearly 285 million world-wide. Apart from providing high quality glasses at affordable prices, the Mobile Vision Centre van will work towards enhancing eye care services with refraction, lens dispensing and tele- ophthalmological consulting.

Impact:

Total Screened 15280 Defective 23% Total Prescription 3012 Dispensed (85% conversion)

• 80% had their eyes tested for the first time

• 65% benefitted with a better ability to work following correction

Eye-novation - Smart Phone Based Retinal Imaging System

Imagine a Whatsapp image based retinal surgeon consultation. Dr Mahesh Shanmugam, Head Vitreoretina at SECI India has modified a regular smart phone that can to be used as a direct ophthalmoscope, an ophthalmic instrument used by most eye specialists and doctors to check the eye.

Retinal imaging helps diagnose a variety of medical conditions. Traditionally done using a variety of equipment ranging from an ophthalmoscope to more elaborate digital imaging systems, the innovation works by affixing a light emitting diode (LED) powered by an external battery pack, close to the smart phone camera aperture. Field trials are underway to establish its use in community ophthalmology settings.

Advancing the Speed of Sight

Sankara, is proud to have installed Mumbai’s first Wavelight Refractive Suite. With EX 500 Laser and the FS 200 Femtosecond LASER, the all LASER system enables 1 dioptre of power to be corrected in 1.4 seconds. The LASIK flap is created in about 6 seconds. Wavefront Optimised treatments, paired with an advanced tracker (latency of 2 milliseconds) make it an effective and safe treatment platform.

LASIK facility is available at Bangalore (Femto), Coimbatore (Femto), Guntur (SBK), Shimoga (SBK) and Ludhiana (SBK) units of Sankara.

Behind Sankara’s success is a team of 183 doctors, 506 paramedical professionals, 175 support staff who have touched the lives of over 40 million people spanning over three decades.

People Initiatives

People are our Assets Performance and Productivity Welfare

Sankara is a people driven organization. Our employees are constantly equipped with knowledge on latest methodologies and best practices through in-house training and also through workshops by domain experts. 50% of our establishment costs account for people costs. Sankara’s most valuable assets are its people; and we believe that valuable individuals make a valuable organization.

Out of 1184 staff at Sankara 41% are men and 59% are women.

As a people driven organization, performance and productivity define Sankara’s growth and success and is monitored through a performance management system. This tool enables us to measure productivity and informs our decisions on appraisals and promotions. All administrative processes have been automated through a web based management system.

Productivity norms help us evaluate individual performance and optimize manpower requirements across units and departments. It also helps us analyze areas that require additional support. New recruits are appointed not just based on skill but on values, emphasizing the importance of values and organizational culture.

343 new recruits were inducted into Sankara this year.

Sankara is an equal opportunity employer, and our HR initiatives work towards developing and integrating our mission with employee growth, motivation and performance. Though a non-profit organization, we at Sankara ensure competitive benefits and programs for employees on par with opportunities that exist in the corporate world. Sankara’s rewarding work culture has helped us attract and retain high calibre workforce over the last decade with attrition rates that are negligible.

Sankara as an organization takes great interest in the well being of its employees. Financial security, support for housing, accident cover are some of the benefits employees are entitled to. A corpus has been created to handle staff welfare at the time of calamity in an employee’s family and to support career enhancement.

At the heart of our success are our dedicated supporters. Generous and relentless support from organizations and individuals has helped us create and expand the access to quality eye care in the country. Your generosity and support will go a long way in supporting this cause making a difference to a million lives.

Support

Capital funding will support new project’s infrastructure, building, equipment and other capital assets that are required to set-up in a new location and scale up our presence across the country.

Last year’s contributions towards infrastructure development were to the tune of Rs. 24 crores. In the year 2014-2015 we plan to set up a new hospital in Kanpur in Uttar Pradesh and identify land for new hospitals in 2 states.

Our model enables us to become self-sufficient on operational expenditure within 5 years of establishment of a new hospital. Recurring donations support the operational costs of newly set-up facilities in conducting camps, surgical expenditure, consumables and distri-bution of spectacles for the patients. Contributions towards this are accepted in the form of long term endowments, recurring or one-time donations.

In 2013-14 we received long term endowments to the tune of Rs. 11.24 lakhs and Rs. 12.38 crores as recur-ring donations. This helped us to reach out to 79 Reve-nue districts in India, where we conducted 1894 camps, screened 3,57,489 patients and performed 1,40,804 free surgeries.

Alongside scale of infrastructure, it is imperative to build the human resource potential. Sankara Academy of Vision was started in 2012 recognizing the need to recruit more staff and to train the existing ones. The Academy works in tandem with universities in creating courses that will build employment at the field level and also skill enhance-ment and specialization for staff and doctors respectively.

Girls who have passed out of school final can become Optometrists by pursuing a course created by the Academy of Vision. All staff are recruited from the location of the upcoming hospital creating local employment and women empowerment. Staff from the new centers are trained at our mission headquarters before they are inducted into their routine.

296 medical and paramedical staffs were trained last year.

With the support of over 20,000 donors of the Indian diaspora and a tireless group of volunteers, all over the US-SEF has been able to help Sankara India build super specialty eye hospitals in Guntur, Bangalore, Shimoga, Anand, Ludhiana and Kanpur - a pan India movement to eliminate curable blindness among the rural poor.

SEF has contributed to 48% of the donation received for surgeries, and 56% of the donation received for projects.

In monetary terms, SEF’s contribution has grown from Rs 2.99 crores to Rs 17.89 crores.

Sankara’s fundraising through events has reached new heights with Mega Concerts and multi-city tours promoting Sankara to wider audiences.

Sankara Eye Foundation, USA has been awarded the coveted 4-star rating for sound fiscal management and commitment to accountability and transparency, for the second consecutive time. Charity Navigator, commending Sankara for its efforts, states that receiving four out of a possible four stars indicates that an organization adheres to good governance and other best practices that minimize the chance of unethical activities and consistently executes its mission in a fiscally responsible way.

Sankara Eye Foundation, USA has received the highest 4-star rating from Charity Navigator.

Sankara Academy of VisionSankara Academy of Vision (SAV) was formally chartered in 2013 by the Founder & Managing Trustee, Sankara Eye Care Institutions (SECI) to develop a cadre of human resource critical for eye care delivery.

The year saw SAV train and develop 190 personnel from across Vision Care Technicians to Optometrists and Super- Specialists in Ophthalmology. A major fillip to the training initiative was the support received from the Sir Ratan Tata Trust.

Cadre Enrolled in 2013-14

Vision Care Technicians 23

Optometrists 81

Ophthalmologists 22 (Post Graduate)

Subspeciality Training 64 (Fellowship)

The Academy has enrolled in its long term programmes students from India, Nepal, Nigeria, Iran and Azerbaijan.

Beyond Academics the Vision Care Technician course also enables socioeconomic empowerment of the students. In a study undertaken earlier this year, 85% of the VCTs belonged to marginalized social communities. Further 72 % reported that they received more respect and better treatment among their family and community. Today they contribute approximately 30% towards the monthly household income.

Our passion to share our experience and knowledge in eye care, led us to conduct continuing medical education programmes in Ophthalmology & Optometry. The audience included a range of delegates from postgraduates to practicing clinicians.

SECI, is today recognised among the leading eye care organizations in the country. The year saw 4 publications in peer reviewed national and international journals and a further 67 presentations as research papers and guest faculty invitations across various state, national and international conferences.

Dr. Mahesh P. Shanmugam, Head Vitreoretina & Ocular Oncology, Sankara Eye Care Institutions, India was recognised with the highest award of the Andhra Pradesh State Ophthalmological Society Annual Conference at Warangal on 29th September 2013. He was awarded the Dr. Siva Reddy Gold Medal and Oration-Vitreoretinal Surgery, New Frontiers.

At the 48th Annual Conference of U.P. State Ophthalmic Society at Jhansi, in October 2013, Sankara was recognised with the Dr. V.N. Raizada award and the Dr. Awadh Dubey award for its research on different aspects of macular and retinal surgery.

At the All India Ophthalmological Conference, held at Agra in February 2014, Sankara was awarded the J.S. Mahashabde Award for the best research presentation in Community Ophthalmology and the K.C. Singhal Award for the best research presentation in External Eye Diseases.
