OptikamPad

Why Choose Optikam?

A practice using pupilometers and sharpie pens to measure lenses will no longer impress customers. Beyond that, traditional tools limit your progressive lens offering which impacts profitability.

Lenses nowadays can be personalized to account for how the frame will be worn once dispensed. However, the dispensing tools most ECPs use have been the same for the past 30 years and have not kept up with the technological advances seen in other parts of the industry. This reality creates an imbalance — superior lenses need to be dispensed with an equally superior tool.

With the advent of online eyewear retailers seeking to commoditize lenses, using cutting edge equipment is key to both elevating the customer experience and achieving continuous practice growth. Furthermore, modernizing your dispensary will only reinforce customer confidence in both the level of professionalism and the quality of the products being offered.

Accurate Natural Posture

The patented OPD device is the only solution that allows the ECP to properly capture the customer's posture in a way similar to the dotting process while never needing to be at the same eye level.

No-Device Measurements

Prefer to measure without placing a device on the eyewear? Then take advantage of our patented LiDAR technology to measure PDs, Heights, as well as Position of Wear measurements, without the need for a reference device.

1 Picture - 10 Measurements

In the time needed for an ECP to obtain two measurements using a pupilometer and a Sharpie, OptikamPad provides the ten measurements needed for Position of Wear from one single image when measured with Optikam's OPD device.

Instant Results

OptikamPad's Automatic Image Detection allows all measurements to be obtained immediately after snapshot, avoiding time consuming manual placement of reference points.

Built for ECPs

OptikamPad was built to keep ECPs in control. The Optikam Posture Device (OPD) was designed with the intent of mirroring the manual measurement process. It takes into account that there is a flow and rhythm to dispensing that needs to be respected, without interfering with an ECPs dispensing style.

Cloud Service

The Optikam Cloud Service provides detailed usage analytics, remote technical support assistance, data protection and multi-station licensing.

Measurements

Device or No Device... Have it Your Way.

Optikam's eyewear measurements take into account how the frame will be worn by the patient once dispensed.

These personalized “as-worn” measurements allow lens designs to be customized to take into account Vertex Distance, Pantoscopic Tilt and Frame Wrap.

As-worn measurements improve monocular Pupillary Distance measurements as well. The Pupilometer measures the monocular Pupillary Distances anatomically based on the center of the patient's face, whereas OptikamPad will obtain monocular Pupillary Distances using the mid-point of the frame which takes into account the frame fit and possible nose pad adjustments.

Take advantage of our patented LiDAR technology to measure without the need to place a device on the eyewear. Take advantage of the added flexibility, while maintaining measurement precision and accuracy.

Pupil Center versus Bottom Pupil

Currently, the recommended industry standard set by lens manufacturers for dotting a patient is to use the pupil center. Most ECPs will perform this step according to their professional judgment and experience. OptikamPad can follow an ECP's current practice of either measuring from the Pupil Center or use OptikamPad's Comfort Height setting to measure at the Bottom Pupil mark. With OptikamPad, the ECP is always in control.

Lens Verification

OptikamPad provides the ECP with the ability to overlay progressive addition lens (PAL) designs from all major lens manufacturers. If the selected PAL does not provide sufficient reading area, the software will alert the ECP that the lens will not properly cut out, eliminating the need for a verification call to the lab.

Lens Thickness

The Lens Thickness feature allows ECPs to simulate a patient's lens thickness taking into account the patient's decentration and frame measurements. The lens is shown in various indexes with the accompanying difference in thickness size.

Sales Tools

Lens Demos

Verbalizing the benefits of premium lens products and options can be a difficult task for ECPs. It can also be time consuming and not to mention confusing for patients.

This is especially true when the tools currently available for demonstration are static in nature. The OptikamPad Lens Demos module offers ECPs a quick and interactive way to educate patients on their vision's well-being. By assisting ECPs in expanding their offering of premium lenses, patients will clearly see the value of the products being recommended.

Testimonials

What eye care professionals say

The OptikamPad is great! Portable, easy to use, and the lens demos on it make it difficult to not sell the best lenses and coatings. Plus, our patients find it super impressive technology.
Dr. Adam Gorner — Rocky Ridge Eye Centre
We LOVE the Optikam! We highly recommend it to all Opticians and wish we had done it sooner!! Measurements are consistent and we appreciate being able to go back to view the photo's online from any of our workstations. The seamless integration into our EHR software is a timesaver, AND our patients are impressed by the technology.
Traci Wyatt, LDO - Uptown Eyes
We've been using the OptikamPad at our office for almost a year now. This product has greatly improved the quality of progressive multifocal lenses we are able to dispense. Patients DO see a difference with the lenses we prescribe using the OptikamPad. We have had comments that this is the best they have ever seen through a progressive lens. I definitely recommend this product !!
Dr. Cynthia Markarian Bahoshy — Brantford Eye Care
Once we started utilizing the Optikam, we found that patients loved the technology behind it and our opticians appreciate the ease of use and the speed in which it allows us to get all of the position of wear measurement. This has been extremely helpful since we utilize a lot of personalized lenses.
Scott Thielen, ABO-AC — EyeWorks
Jensen Eye Care in Casper Wyoming has been using the Optikam in our office since Nov 2013 and have absolutely loved it. The experience the patient receives from the OptikamPad is amazing!!! The patients can see themselves after the pictures have been taken. Presenting the design of the progressives is so easy and enhances our sales. As a staff, we love the OptikamPad. It is a wonderful tool to have in any office. We recommend it highly.
Jensen Eye Care — Casper, WY
Optikam has been one of the easiest investments for our optical. The device is user friendly, accurate, and quick! Our opticians love that you can access past measurements to ensure their calculations are correct. The company's service has been tremendous any time we have had a question about the product. I recommend every optician, beginner or expert, to have this device in their optical!
Hannah McDaniel, Crowder Eye Center — Chattanooga, TN
We love it! We discuss the technology with patients and the staff is instructed to involve the patients in the measurement process so they see this great technology. We tell patients that most eye care facilities take two measurements when fitting your eyewear – we take 15 different measurements using the Optikam! We love the demos and also the fact that it integrates with My Vision Express.
Troy Bedinghaus, O.D., Vision Source Administrator – Tampa Bay Area
The Optikam is a game-changer for prescription glasses measurements. This device provides detailed and accurate custom measurements, which are not only precise but also repeatable. Our optical has found the Optikam to be an essential tool in taking over 95% of all measurements. This device is user-friendly and allows opticians to quickly take accurate measurements, making it an excellent option for both novice and experienced opticians.
Ragan McBride, Haywood Family Eye Care – Waynesville, NC
Overall, the Optikam is a must-have for any optical/optometry practice that wants to provide accurate and efficient prescription glasses measurements. It has become an indispensable tool in our optical, and we highly recommend it to any optometrist or optician looking to improve their measurements and provide better service to their patients.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is OptikamPad?

OptikamPad is an all-in-one digital dispensing solution for Eye Care Professionals (ECPs) that utilizes an iPad to capture precise ophthalmic measurements, assist in frame selection, and demonstrate lens benefits through augmented reality.

How does OptikamPad improve the patient experience?

It modernizes the dispensary by replacing manual tools with an interactive tablet experience, allowing patients to see themselves in different frames via side-by-side photos and visualize lens enhancements like Anti-Reflective (AR) coatings, progressive lens designs or photochromics in real-time.

What is the patented OPD?

The Optikam Posture Device (OPD) is a proprietary hardware device that clips onto a patient's chosen frame to provide a fixed reference point, ensuring sub-millimeter accuracy for "Position of Wear" measurements that manual methods cannot replicate.

How long does it take to take measurements with Optikam?

A single frontal photograph captures 10 essential measurements in less than 60 seconds, significantly faster than using a manual pupillometer and marking lenses with a Sharpie.

Does Optikam work for both independent ODs and large chains?

Yes. Its portable, iPad-based design is scalable for high-volume clinics and boutiques alike, offering a "Swiss Neutral" technology that works with any lens laboratory.
