Optometrists can offer customers the convenience of ordering contact lenses through their own branded app or web store.
‘Next Contacts’ is a new mobile application developed by Sydney-based mobile commerce developer Touch to Buy in partnership with Bausch and Lomb (Australia).
According to Bausch and Lomb, the mobile app offers optometrists a new way to interact with patients after their first appointment and grow their business by providing patients with an ongoing, convenient lens ordering solution.
The mobile application effectively allows patients to manage their contact lens wear. It monitors their lens usage, amount of lenses on hand and lens re-orders, all from the patients’ mobile phone. The app contains expert advice on fitting and wearing contact lenses and eye health information.
The app platform is available for iPhone and Android through the App Store and Google Play.
