Knowledge hub for Optometrists

Run your optometry practice with tools built around your workflow

Create custom software for eye care without a traditional IT project. Build online booking, digital intake and consent, an optical inventory and frame catalog, lab order tracking, recall reminders and a simple patient portal — just by describing what you need.

Start with the basics

Build the tools your eye care practice actually needs

Optometry practices juggle packed schedules, urgent visits, pre-testing, exam lanes, optical sales, contact lens trials, lab orders and recalls — often across paper forms, spreadsheets and phone calls. Small inefficiencies add up: double-booked lanes, missing patient history, lost frame holds or delayed pickup notifications.

Use YeshBe to build custom apps that match your exact workflow. Create booking with visit types and buffers, digital intake forms that mirror your clinical questions, an optical inventory and quoting tool, a lab order tracker with clear statuses, and a recall system tied to exam dates and Rx expirations. Bring everything into simple dashboards your team can actually use — tailored to how your practice runs.

  • Online booking & schedule controlBuild scheduling around visit types, durations, buffers and exam lanes — with clear day views for staff and urgent-slot triage.
  • Digital intake & patient portalCreate custom history, symptoms and consent forms. Let patients complete paperwork ahead of time and check appointment details in a simple portal.
  • Optical inventory & salesTrack frames and lenses by brand, SKU, size and cost. Create quotes, hold frames, manage vendors and set reorder points that fit your board strategy.
  • Lab orders & pickup alertsGenerate lab tickets, track statuses from ordered to ready, and notify patients when eyewear or repairs are ready for pickup.

  1. Online appointment and triage system

    Let patients book the right visit while your team manages lanes, buffers and day flow.

    Prompt

    Build an online appointment system for my optometry practice. Visit types: comprehensive exam (45 min), contact lens exam (60 min), follow-up (20 min) and urgent/eye emergency (hold 2 same-day slots). Include buffers between visits and lunch blocks. Patient booking page should collect name, phone, email, reason for visit, symptoms, and optional insurance provider name. Show available times per day based on exam lanes/rooms. Add a staff dashboard with a day view to drag-and-drop reschedules and mark statuses: Booked, Arrived, Pre-test, Exam, Checkout, No-show. Include simple rules to prevent double-booking a lane.

  2. Patient intake and consent portal

    Reduce check-in time with custom pre-visit forms and digital acknowledgements.

    Prompt

    Create a patient intake portal for upcoming appointments. Patients verify contact details and complete medical/ocular history, medications, allergies, vision concerns, lifestyle (screen time, sports, driving), and current contact lens brand/power if applicable. Allow upload of insurance card images and signed acknowledgements (office policies, dilating consent). Give staff an admin page to edit questions and a schedule view that shows completed/unfinished forms with a printable summary.

  3. Optical inventory and sales tracker

    Keep frame boards organized, build quotes, and generate lab orders from one place.

    Prompt

    Build an optical inventory tool. Track frames by brand, model, color, size, UPC/SKU, cost, retail, on-hand quantity, reorder point and vendor. Let staff search by brand/style and add frames to a patient quote. Include lens options (material, index, coatings, tints, add-ons) with pricing rules, discounts and taxes. Allow placing a frame on hold (with expiration) and converting a quote to an order that generates a lab order record with due date and vendor. Add quick reports: low stock items and best-selling brands over the last 90 days.

  4. Recall and reminders engine

    Bring patients back on time for annual exams, contact lens checks and follow-ups.

    Prompt

    Create a recall system for my optometry practice. Generate recall tasks based on last exam date, visit type and contact lens Rx expiration. Segment by patient type (pediatric, adult, diabetic) and define sequences: send email templates at 30/7/1 days and create a call queue for non-responders. Include a smart link to the online booking page and a dashboard showing due, contacted, booked and completed recall counts with conversion rates.
