Eyefinity EHR System Requirements

The requirements outlined in this topic represent the minimum hardware and system specifications required to effectively use Eyefinity EHR. Failure to meet these requirements will noticeably degrade the performance of the software. This page was last updated on September 5, 2024.

This page includes the following topics:

Ensure that you also meet the requirements for your practice management system. For example, OfficeMate® users must also meet the system requirements specified on the OfficeMate System Requirements page.

Individual pieces of diagnostic equipment may have their own system requirements. Verify the requirements with your hardware vendor.

iPad

Use any of the following iPad models running iPadOS 17.5 or later.

  • iPad (7th generation and later)
  • iPad mini (5th generation and later)
  • iPad Air (M2)
  • iPad Air (3rd generation and later)
  • iPad Pro (M4)
  • iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation and later)
  • iPad Pro 11-inch (1st generation and later)

When acquiring a new iPad, you should always purchase the latest model to ensure the longest useful life. The models listed here represent all supported models. While you can install the latest iPadOS and Eyefinity EHR on the lowest models listed here, performance may suffer.

Printing from the iPad requires an AirPrint-capable printer. Refer to Apple's AirPrint Basics page for more information about AirPrint.

Wireless Keyboards

While Eyefinity EHR is designed to allow you to tap and swipe through patient encounters, you may occasionally need to supplement your visit notes with written annotations. For the best experience, Eyefinity recommends the following iPad keyboards:

  • Apple Magic Keyboard or Magic Keyboard Folio

  • Logitech Combo Touch Keyboard Case or Slim Folio Keyboard Case

Workstation

The following requirements represent the minimum specifications required by Eyefinity EHR.

If you are running OfficeMate on the same workstation, you must also meet the OfficeMate requirements. Refer to the OfficeMate System Requirements page.

Footnotes

1 Ensure your operating system also meets the requirements of any diagnostic or imaging equipment attached to the computer.

2 Number of users is based on the number of practice users (doctors, staff, and patients) simultaneously using Eyefinity cloud products (Eyefinity Practice Management, AcuityLogic, and Eyefinity EHR, including the patient kiosk) at the practice location.

3 Work with your certified network technician to determine the number and placement of access points required for optimum wireless coverage.
