New Ability Opternative Has Given Doctors

Oct. 24, 2018

Opternative, Inc., has given doctors the ability to route a patient’s online vision test results from its platform to a portal where designated doctors can review and dispense prescriptions for their own patients.

Instead of Opternative’s network of doctors reviewing all patient results, eyecare providers and eyewear retailers who offer the online vision test can identify the doctor or doctors to review the patient’s results. Designated doctors are then able to determine the recommended next step for each patient based on the results, a renewed prescription or a comprehensive eye exam.

“This new feature allows eyecare providers and eyewear retailers to offer their patients the convenience of telemedicine and still remain at the forefront of their eyecare,” says Ayo Jimoh, CTO of Opternative. “We strive to help our partners empower their business, and this technology aligns with that goal.
