OptiExpert™ is a multi-functional app for eye care practitioners.Multifocal calculatorAn ideal aid for the eye care practitioner seeking to transition their presbyopic patient from spectacles to contact lenses.

Simply input the patient’s most recent spectacle prescription and OptiExpert™ will recommend suitable contact lenses from CooperVision’s range of daily disposable and monthly reusable hydrogel and silicone hydrogel products. OptiExpert™ will also support any refinement required based on practitioner observation of the toric axis location marker. Efron Grading ScaleProvides a simple reference for grading the severity of contact lens complications; aiding tissue change comparisons and helping patients understand the importance of their practitioner’s recommendations. Based on the traditional ‘Efron Grading Scale’, the app converts this information into an easy-to-use digital tool, which is always on-hand. It allows practitioners to grade patients against 16 sets of images and covers the key anterior ocular complications of contact lens wear. The conditions are illustrated in five stages of increasing severity from 0–4, with traffic light colour banding from green (normal) to red (severe), providing a straightforward and efficient aid for the optical professional. Available in 14 languages, OptiExpert™ enables practitioners to control what is shown to the patient so they only see the conditions and severity that is relevant to them. A visual representation of their condition also helps patients understand the importance of their ECP’s recommendations, such as upgrading to a silicone hydrogel contact lens to improve clinical signs of hypoxia or the importance of adhering to contact lens wearing schedules.Additional benefits of the app include the ability to securely store images of the patient’s eye condition - facilitating easy comparison to other images on the scale to aid accurate grading. Practitioners are able to add their own comments following each patient evaluation, allowing a comprehensive record to be compiled of each individual’s condition and any treatment prescribed.Please note that an app activation password is required to use OptiExpert™.
