EMR in Eye Units

There are some questions that have to be asked when considering if EMR is suitable for a National Health System: First the Viability, Reliability, and Integrity of the EMR. When thinking about EMR, it has to be compounded based on some standards, that can be taken from other Health Systems or own. Secondly, the proper type of Ophthalmic EMC System (Web based EMR/ Client Server EMR) should be taken into consideration. Another question that raises is if EMR can not only be specialized in Ophthalmology, but also Subspecialties such as Glaucoma, Retina and other. This offers a possibility of completing a Database that can be used for Studies and Audit and improve the Health System. Using EMR can also offer accurate data that can estimate the prevalence of some specific conditions and rare diseases.
