  • Publication number: 20200082449
    Abstract: The presently disclosed technology include a system, method, and computer program product to causes an optometrist's eyewear inventory to be available in advance of an optometric patient visit. In use, the inventory once only available in the optometry office becomes available, which allows the optometrist to compete with alternative non-optometry eyewear purveyors. Gathering relevant patient preference information, fashion preferences, and personal psychographic information allows the optometry staff to make better eyewear suggestions. The patient can review all eyewear options even when they are not at the optometry office. This process also allows the patient to access virtual or on-line inventory that would not otherwise be easily available to the patient. The patient can share the eyewear selection process with other individuals for assisting in the selection of eyewear. All information is provided to the optometric office with the purpose of optimizing the purchase experience for the specific patient.
