The optometry admin bottleneck is costing you patients

Patients with expired prescriptions never contacted for annual exams
Frame and contact lens orders tracked on paper with no status updates to patients
Insurance authorization calls eating hours of staff time every single day
Recall reminders for annual exams falling through the cracks consistently
No unified view of patient messages across phone, email, and text channels
Staff switching between practice management software, email, and phone systems constantly

A typical front desk's morning

7:30 AM - Check voicemails from patients asking about frame orders and exam availability...

8:00 AM - Open practice management software to check today's exam schedule...

8:30 AM - Call patients to confirm afternoon exam appointments one by one...

9:15 AM - Phone the lab about two back-ordered frames with no tracking updates...

10:00 AM - Spend 45 minutes on hold with insurance for a prior authorization...

11:00 AM - Realize 200+ patients with expired prescriptions have never been contacted...

Half the day gone. Exam chairs sitting empty. Patients going elsewhere.

Optometrist FAQ

How does Dewx help optometrists increase annual exam bookings?

Dewx tracks every patient prescription expiration date and recall schedule. Dew AI automatically sends personalized reminders when annual exams are due, using the patient's preferred communication channel - WhatsApp, SMS, or email. Patients can book directly from the reminder with a single tap, dramatically increasing rebooking rates.

Can Dewx track frame and contact lens orders?

Yes. OPS Hub lets you track every order from placement to patient pickup. When frames arrive or contact lenses are ready, Dew AI automatically notifies the patient via their preferred channel. You can also track back-ordered items and send proactive updates so patients are never left wondering about their order status.

How does the unified inbox work for an optometry practice?

Portal brings every patient conversation into one place - whether they called about their order, emailed a question about their prescription, or texted to reschedule an exam. Your front desk sees a single timeline per patient, so anyone can pick up where a conversation left off without asking the patient to repeat themselves.

Can Dewx handle insurance authorization tracking?

OPS Hub includes workflow tracking for insurance authorizations. You can log authorization status, set reminders for pending approvals, and keep your team informed about which patients have been approved for specific services or products. While it does not replace your insurance billing system, it ensures no authorization falls through the cracks.

Is Dewx suitable for practices with optical shops?

Absolutely. Dewx handles both the clinical exam side and the retail optical side of your practice. Track exam scheduling, prescription management, and frame orders all in one system. When a patient completes an exam, the handoff to the optical shop for frame selection and ordering is seamless.
