Our EHR Journey: Where We Are Now
Almost 2 years into our conversion to electronic health records (EHRs), our practice functions much differently than it did when we began this process.

Dear Colleagues,
We've added two helpful articles to the Eyecare Educators' Library this month: one about the value of staging dry eye disease, and one about the benefits that came with one practice's conversion to EHR.
All our treatment decisions can be streamlined as we convert our practices to EHRs. In the process, we need clear goals and plenty of troubleshooting support.
If you would like to discuss these articles (or any question/issue related to ocular surface disease or practice management), please join us on our Yahoo! Groups forum or email us at
info@eyecareeducators.com.
Sincerely,
John W. Lahr, OD, FAAO, and Paul M. Karpecki, OD, FAAO
