Enhancements for Both iPad and Web

Both the Eyefinity EHR iPad app and web application include enhancements in the following areas:

• Contact Lenses
• Medications
• Patient Data

Contact Lenses

• You can now document Assessment Notes for soft contact and RGP trial Rx's that you create within the Vision Exam or Glasses & Contacts.

  

  Assessment Notes will be visible from the Visit Overview as well as the visit note PDF, but they won't show up on any Final Rx's you create.

Medications

• You can now save medications that you frequently prescribe as Favorite Rx's. When you save a medication as a Favorite Rx, all of the medication details such as suggested packaging, dose, frequency and more are saved, eliminating the need to fill in that information each time you prescribe that medication.

  • You'll see an option whenever you're prescribing a medication to save it as a Favorite Rx.

    If you save a medication as a Favorite Rx, it won't appear in your list of Favorite Rx's until you save the visit note.

  • Each doctor can save up to 20 Favorite Rx's.

  • To prescribe a medication you've saved as a Favorite Rx, open the Favorite Rx tab, which appears at the top of the list when prescribing medications. Your entire list of Favorite Rx's will appear regardless of what diagnosis you've selected.

    

  • Favorite Rx's will also appear under the Rx tab from anywhere in Eyefinity EHR, enabling you to access them even when you're prescribing a medication from outside a visit.
• "Earliest Fill Date" now appears on the printed Rx.

Patient Data

• Nicknames you've recorded on the practice management side of the platform will appear in Eyefinity EHR.

  This enhancement will not be applied immediately. It will go into effect in the weeks after 5.18 is released.

Web-Only Enhancements

Eyefinity EHR web application includes enhancements in the following areas:

• Administration
• Intramail

• The patient's name is now visible in the "To" field when the "Include Patient in Conversation" check box is selected.
