He started this journey with a vision to eradicate avoidable blindness and an idea to provide equal eye care to every section of the society. Since its inception, the focus has been towards Comprehensive Eye and ENT Care, Quality, Community Impact, Research and Education & Training. Over the years, facing lots of challenges, having undergone rigorous changes and growth, today SCEH is one of the oldest and the largest NABH accredited eye care institutes in India, making an enormous contribution to eye care throughout the country and hopes to do so for many years to come.

It is our 100th birthday…..a journey of dedication, hard work, challenges, caring and commitment.

Dear readers,

Dr. Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital’s (SCEH) Centenary Celebration reminds us of its 100 years legacy and glorious past of eye-care service and commitment to society. It gives us immense pride to take part in the centenary year’s celebrations by acknowledging the institution’s glorious past and contributions, at the same time we look into the future with optimism as a 100-year-young dynamic organization that has the momentum to make a significant impact in the community. How many institutions in the country continue to remain steadfast on their mission and relevant to the society for 100 years? SCEH’s mission continues to provide care to all sections of society and compassion through its values. Though this journey saw many difficulties, it also gave the hospital many more factors to hold on and still stand strong in its 100th year.

Last year the nation fought another battle with Covid-19 during the year’s initial months and again proved itself a fighter by overcoming the pandemic. We quickly recovered from the brutal ‘second wave’ of the pandemic to finish the year with nearly the same number of surgeries as the pre-pandemic 2019-2020 year in nine operational months. A significant contribution of our impact has come from our work at the secondary hospitals and vision centers that serve communities where it really matters. Also, with the help of our supporters, we successfully opened 7 new Vision Centres and 53 functional VCs in our network.

Looking into the future, the entire organization, led by a leadership council participated in a transformational journey, ‘Mission Sambhav- SCEH 2.0’. Through shared participation and discussions, the institution is ready with a strategic plan for the next five and ten years. The ten white papers will define the next course of the organization. The goals are ambitious but so is the need in the society, and SCEH is ready to play it! We are happy to share our plans with you.

In addition, I would like to appreciate and thank all our supporters and funders – your support acts as a motivation for the organization.
