One example of the combined work of Zeiss and Bluewave is at North Point Eye Centre in QLD where Dr Stuart Reader has recently implemented a completely new Bluewave network into a new clinic. The network design ensures seamless integration of Zeiss equipment results into the computer system which then allows for image review via Zeiss FORUM from any PC on the network.

Another example is New England Eye Centre in NSW where Dr Mark Morgan recently implemented a new Bluewave Terminal Server to support Zeiss FORUM into an existing computer network which has now increased the efficiency of the clinic’s image management functions.
