Practice management and electronic health records software company Eyefinity has integrated with Arrellio, a contact lens ordering and e-commerce platform, in order to help practices maximize contact lens sales and recover potential lost revenue.1 The integration will allow practices to automatically identify patients who are due for contact lens refills and send them personalized reorder reminders via text and email, according to a news release.

Additionally, patients can place orders directly through links that connect back to their practice.1

“We continue to expand the Eyefinity Encompass ecosystem with digital tools that enhance patient experiences while driving more efficient workflows for eye care professionals," said Eyefinity President Charlie Biegel in the release.1 "This integration with Arrellio addresses a real challenge — helping practices recapture contact lens sales that might otherwise go to online competitors.”

Eyefinity Encompass users are currently able to benefit from the new integration. The platform already works to integrate with other third-party applications for cloud-based practice management and electronic health records software solutions.1 Eyefinity, a VSP Vision company, is able to provide VSP eligibilities and authorizations, contact lens ordering, image management, and industry-standard equipment through its Encompass software. Eyefinity digital marketing services, marketing-led data reports and review, and Ring analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) allow for business growth opportunities through the platform. As for improving patient care, Encompass provides an Eyefinity PatientNavigator and automatic eyewear-ready messaging. The software is protected with SOC 2 Type 2 certification, Amazon Web Services, 24/7 antivirus monitoring, and EHNAC, accredited since 2004.2

As for Arrellio, patients are provided price quotes driven by data, which improves sales flows for practices, according to the company.2 A success story from a practice that utilizes Arrellio’s software is Dr. Torrey J. Carlson & Associates, which operates out of 8 locations across Tennessee. Since integrating Arrellio, the practice has documented a 26% increase in contact lens sales compared with the previous year without the software, in addition to over 1300 incremental patient orders and a 4% increase in contact lens fits.3

“We were seeing more and more patients choose online retailers for their contact lenses,” said Torrey J. Carlson, owner of Dr. Torrey J Carlson & Associates, in a statement to Arrellio.3 “With Arrellio, we’re able to keep contact lens revenue within the practice.”

Other integration and software news

Another recent integration completed by Eyefinity was with Zocdoc in April. Zocdoc is a health care marketplace that helps patients find and book appointments online with health care providers, according to a news release.4

“Our strategic partnership with Zocdoc creates a seamless connection between patients seeking eye care and our network of providers, reinforcing our commitment to driving practice growth and patient satisfaction,” said Biegel in the release.4 “This integration empowers practices to expand their digital presence, attract new patients, and optimize their scheduling efficiency—ultimately helping providers see a measurable return on their technology investment.”

Eyefinity also began offering its digital marketing services in April as powered by EyeCarePro, which allows eye care practices to choose from customized solutions, including a fully managed website, SEO, email marketing, online reviews, and reputation management, among others, according to a news release.5

“Knowing the importance of marketing, we strive to offer fully managed services cultivated specifically for the optometric industry,” said EyeCarePro Marketing Director Liezel van der Merwe in the release.5 “We’re excited to collaborate with Eyefinity to bring our expertise to more practices and help them thrive in an increasingly competitive marketplace.”
