About OptoSoft Ophthalmology Software
OptoSoft is a cloud-based optical practice-management platform founded in 2008. For ophthalmology clinics it manages the patient, prescription, dispensing, and billing side of the practice: digital patient records, spectacle and contact-lens prescription documentation (SPH, CYL, AXIS, ADD, PD), appointment scheduling, invoicing, and an in-house optical dispensing counter with frame and lens inventory. It is optical practice-management software — not a surgical or clinical EHR — and works alongside a clinical system where one is used. A free plan is available, with the International plan at US$399 per location per year.

Optical Dispensing
Dispense frames and lenses in-house with a full optical counter — inventory, prescription-linked billing, and receipts.
Billing & Invoicing
Invoice consultations and optical sales together, with multi-currency support and tax-ready billing.
Multi-Practitioner
Support multiple doctors and locations with role-based access and consolidated reporting across the practice.
Optical Dispensing Software for Eye Clinics
In most ophthalmology practices the clinical side is well systemised and the optical dispensary is not — frames tracked on a spreadsheet, prescriptions re-keyed by hand, and no view of what the optical actually earns. This is the part OptoSoft is built for.
Prescription to dispensed pair, without re-keying
The prescription recorded at the front desk carries straight through to the work order and the invoice, so nobody retypes SPH, CYL, AXIS, ADD or PD between the consulting room and the optical counter.
A real dispensary stock system
Frames and lenses tracked by brand, model, colour and size with barcodes and reorder thresholds — instead of a spreadsheet that is out of date the moment a pair is sold.
See what the optical earns
Optical sales reported separately from consultations, so the dispensary can be managed as its own line of business across practitioners and locations.
This is optical practice-management and dispensing software, not a coded clinical or surgical EHR — see the scope table below. Related: optical POS software, optical inventory management.
OptoSoft vs a Clinical EHR — What Each One Is For
OptoSoft records the eye examination, the patient's case history, and the insurance side of the sale, and it runs the optical counter. What it is not is a coded clinical or surgical EHR: it does not assign ICD-10 diagnosis codes, lock and sign encounters, transmit claims electronically, or integrate with imaging devices. Here is the boundary, row by row.
| Capability | OptoSoft | Typical clinical EHR |
|---|---|---|
| Digital patient records & visit history | Yes | Yes |
| Spectacle & contact-lens Rx (SPH, CYL, AXIS, ADD, PD) | Yes | Yes |
| Eye exam findings — acuity, refraction, IOP, anterior & posterior segment | Yes | Yes |
| Case history — complaint, ocular, medical, family | Yes | Yes |
| Appointment scheduling & WhatsApp/SMS reminders | Yes | Yes |
| Insurance details, patient/insurer split & claim form generated from the system | Yes | Yes |
| Optical dispensing counter (frames & lenses) OptoSoft's core strength | Yes | No |
| Frame & lens inventory with barcode | Yes | No |
| Prescription-linked billing & invoicing | Yes | No |
| Multi-store / multi-location retail reporting | Yes | No |
| Coded diagnosis (ICD-10) & signed, locked encounters Use your clinical system | No | Yes |
| Electronic claim transmission (EDI submission, eligibility checks, ERA posting) OptoSoft generates the form; you file it | No | Yes |
| Diagnostic imaging integration (OCT, fundus) Use your clinical system | No | Yes |
| E-prescribing of medication Use your clinical system | No | Yes |
If you need coded diagnoses, signed and locked encounters, imaging integration, or claims filed electronically, you need a clinical EHR — and OptoSoft sits alongside it to run the records, exam findings, insurance paperwork and dispensing. If the optical counter and the patient record are what you're trying to fix, OptoSoft is the whole job.

Ophthalmology Software — Common Questions
What does OptoSoft do for an ophthalmology practice?
OptoSoft handles the patient-management, prescription, dispensing, and billing side of an ophthalmology practice: digital patient records, spectacle and contact-lens prescription documentation, appointment scheduling, invoicing, and the optical dispensing counter for frames and lenses. It is a cloud platform with a free plan and no per-user fees.
Is OptoSoft a clinical or surgical EHR?
Not a coded one. OptoSoft records case history and eye examination findings, prescriptions (SPH, CYL, AXIS, ADD, PD), appointments, billing, insurance details and claim forms, and the optical retail side of the clinic. What it does not do is assign ICD-10 or CPT diagnosis codes, sign and lock encounters into a tamper-evident record, transmit claims electronically, integrate with OCT or fundus imaging, or e-prescribe medication — so it is not a surgical or coded clinical EHR, and it works alongside one where a clinic uses it.
Can ophthalmologists manage prescriptions and dispensing in OptoSoft?
Yes. OptoSoft stores unlimited spectacle and contact-lens prescriptions per patient, links them to invoices and work orders, and runs the optical dispensing counter — frame and lens inventory, billing, and WhatsApp sharing — so the clinic can dispense eyewear in-house.
Does it support multiple doctors and locations?
Yes. OptoSoft supports multiple practitioners and locations from one dashboard, with role-based access per user and consolidated reporting across the practice.
How much does ophthalmology practice software cost?
OptoSoft offers a free plan with no credit card required. The International plan is US$399 per location per year with unlimited users and free updates. There are no per-user or per-transaction fees.
Is OptoSoft ophthalmology software?
OptoSoft is ophthalmology software for the practice-management and optical side of an eye clinic — patient records, digital prescriptions (SPH, CYL, AXIS, ADD, PD), appointment scheduling, billing, and in-house optical dispensing. As cloud ophthalmology software it runs the front office and the optical counter in one platform and complements a clinical or surgical EHR where one is used. A free plan is available with no credit card required.
Can OptoSoft run alongside our existing clinical EHR?
Yes — that is the intended setup for most eye clinics. Your clinical EHR keeps coded diagnoses, signed encounters, diagnostic imaging, and e-prescribing; OptoSoft runs the patient front office, case history and exam findings, the prescription record, insurance and claim forms, and the optical dispensing counter with frame and lens inventory and prescription-linked billing. The two systems cover different halves of the practice.
Does OptoSoft integrate with OCT or fundus imaging devices?
No. OptoSoft does not integrate with diagnostic imaging devices such as OCT scanners or fundus cameras, and does not store diagnostic images. Those belong in a clinical ophthalmology EHR. OptoSoft covers patient records, spectacle and contact-lens prescriptions, appointments, billing, and optical dispensing.
How much does OptoSoft cost for an eye clinic?
There are four options: a free plan covering patient records and prescription management only; India Only at ₹6,000 per store per year; International at US$399 per store per year; and Enterprise / On-Premise at US$3,999 as a one-time licence with self-hosting available. Paid plans include unlimited users, with no per-user or per-transaction fees.
What is optical dispensing software for an eye clinic?
Optical dispensing software runs the eyewear side of an eye clinic: it turns a recorded prescription into a frame and lens work order, tracks dispensary stock by brand, model, colour and size with barcodes, and bills the dispensed pair against the patient record. It is separate from clinical software, which handles the examination itself. OptoSoft is optical dispensing and practice-management software for this part of the practice.
Can an ophthalmology practice run an in-house optical dispensary on OptoSoft?
Yes. That is the main use case. OptoSoft covers the full in-house optical workflow — frame and lens inventory with reorder thresholds, prescription-linked work orders and invoices, WhatsApp sharing with the patient, and reporting that separates optical sales from consultations so the dispensary can be managed as its own line of business.
Is there ophthalmology practice management software without clinical charting?
It depends which part of charting you mean. OptoSoft is practice-management software for the front office and the optical counter, and it does record case history and eye examination findings — what it leaves out is the coded layer a clinical EHR adds — no ICD-10 or CPT coding, no signed and locked encounters, no diagnostic imaging integration, and no electronic claim transmission. Practices that need those keep a clinical EHR and run OptoSoft alongside it for patient records, prescriptions, appointments, insurance claim forms, dispensing and billing.
