Paraoptometric Recognition Week

Posted on September 18, 2018 by Patrick I.

An Opportunity to Shine the Spotlight on Your Staff


Eyefinity celebrates Paraoptometric Recognition Week!

There’s no debate that an optometry practice can’t run efficiently without a well-staffed office. For successful practices, this includes an experienced team with a wealth of knowledge in the industry. And for some, that includes having paraoptometrics that are CPO certified.

A CPO has attained national recognition via certification by demonstrating an understanding of the concepts used in optometric care.

According to Melissa Mueller, CPO, who currently manages the Optometric Center, P.A. in Boise, Idaho, and who has served on the Idaho Paraoptometric Board for eight years, “CPOs are committed to the optometry field as a career and not just a job.”

Friendships Formed at Eyefinity Education Conferences

Posted on August 7, 2018 by Jess G.

Not only are Eyefinity Education Conferences opportunities to dive deep into Eyefinity software, they foster professional connections that could last a lifetime.

In June, more than 100 doctors and staff members joined Eyefinity at its second education conference of the year in San Antonio, Texas. And while Justine O’Dell, OD, from Spartanburg Vision, in South Carolina expected attendees to be excited for the conference and its content, she was pleasantly surprised by “the camaraderie that comes from such a personal, fun, and intensive training.”

“It was a great opportunity to brainstorm and network with ODs from across the country,” said Dr. O’Dell.

These conferences foster connections between attendees, as well as establish meaningful relationships between Eyefinity educators and doctors and staff.

Stay Safe and Secure with Eyefinity

Posted on July 19, 2018 by Steve B.

Before I head out for a ride on my bicycle, I make sure to check my tires and chain, and I never ride without a helmet. Protection and safety is something I always prioritize. The saadventure-bicycle-bike-161172me goes with how I view Eyefinity. Protection and safety of your data is something we hold with utmost importance.

With that in mind, I’m excited that the Electronic Healthcare Network Accreditation Commission (EHNAC) awarded Eyefinity with another two years of accreditation. We work hard to achieve full accreditation with the Healthcare Network Accreditation Program (HNAP) because we want to ensure that your data will continue to be secure and safe with Eyefinity.

In today’s technology-driven world, data protection is more critical than ever. You and your patients deserve peace of mind knowing that we make protecting your personal health information a priority, while we deliver excellence in health data processing and transactions. We want you to trust us to exceed compliance industry-established standards and HIPAA regulations.

Tell Inefficient EHRs to Take a Hike

Posted on July 11, 2018 by Dr. Justin Manning

Just as a bad pair of hiking boots can ruin a backpacking trip, an inefficient EHR can slow down an exam. In both hiking boots and EHRs, I look for three things:Dr. Manning Blog Post Image

  1. Do they fit my needs?
  2. Do they offer exceptional support?
  3. Do they work so well that I barely notice them?

Eyefinity EHR does all three and more. Eyefinity EHR enables you to get rid of paper and spend more time with your patients, instead of documenting.

Watch this video where I highlight some of my favorite features in Eyefinity EHR. And if you’re heading to Vision Expo West in September, I’d love to show you in person at booth 13065.

Cloudy with a Chance of Whaaattt? Clearing Up Cloud Solutions.

Posted on July 9, 2018 by Matt C.

The “cloud” is a vague tech term that doesn’t provide any context clues as to what it can do for optometric practices. Let’s breakdown what the cloud is, and how it directly relates to your practice.

What is the Cloud? 2018-06-28 16_27_03-Edited - Google Drive

At its core, cloud computing means storing and accessing data and programs over the Internet, instead of a computer hard drive in your practice.

What is a Cloud-Based EHR or Practice Management Solution?

Cloud-based electronic health records (EHR) and practice management solutions allow a practice to access, work, and securely store data, such as patient demographics, exams, and lab orders, in one secure online location that’s accessible via the Internet, wherever you happen to be.

Electronic health records and practice management solutions aren’t stored on a server or computer, but are securely stored and accessed via almost any device with a Web browser, app, and Internet connectivity.

You Are Now Free to Move About the Kiosk.

Posted on May 21, 2018 by Steve B.

Blog image“Where in the world is Steve Baker?” I’m often jumping on a plane to visit practices and meet doctors like you. Just call me the Carmen Sandiego of Eyefinity.

Because I frequently travel for work, I spend a lot of time in airports. One change I’ve noticed here in Sacramento (my hometown airport) is that some airlines are now allowing passengers to enter from both the front and back of the plane. With two entrances, this makes the boarding process so much simpler. There’s no need to wait in a long line, crossing your fingers that there’s still room in the overhead compartment for your luggage. The flight attendants also seem more relaxed now that they don’t have to remind passengers to quickly find their seats or worry that a long queue will lead to a late departure. It’s a simple solution with big time benefits.

Simplicity, especially when it comes to check-in for your patients, is what inspired our team to introduce the new Eyefinity Kiosk.
