Managing contact lens pricing has always been a challenge for optometry practices. Between insurance contributions, manufacturer rebates, and the ever-changing price landscape, it’s easy for staff to feel overwhelmed—and for patients to feel confused. That’s why we’re excited to introduce the EyeDock Contact Lens Price Calculator, a tool designed to simplify pricing calculations, improve transparency, and encourage patients to purchase year supplies directly from your practice.

The Problem: Complexity and Competition

For many practices, calculating contact lens prices involves juggling multiple variables, such as:

• Manufacturer rebates, which vary by lens type, supply duration, and patient eligibility.
• Insurance contributions, which can differ from patient to patient.
• Shipping costs, which may apply to some purchases but not others.

On top of this, practices face stiff competition from online vendors, who market convenience and low prices to patients. Without a clear way to illustrate the value of purchasing from your office, it can be difficult to retain these sales.

The Solution: EyeDock Contact Lens Price Calculator

The EyeDock Contact Lens Price Calculator was built with one goal in mind: to simplify pricing for both your staff and your patients. This intuitive tool automates the complex calculations involved in contact lens sales, providing clear, accurate price quotes that highlight the benefits of purchasing directly from your practice.

How the EyeDock Price Calculator Helps Your Practice

Streamlining Price Calculations:

• Gone are the days of manually crunching numbers or second-guessing rebate eligibility. The calculator integrates key factors like insurance contributions, rebates, and shipping costs into a single, easy-to-use interface. Your staff can generate accurate price quotes in just a few clicks, saving time and reducing errors.

Encouraging Year Supply Purchases:

• Year supply purchases are beneficial for both patients and practices. Patients save money through rebates and discounts, while practices benefit from increased revenue and reduced administrative burden. The EyeDock Price Calculator makes it easy to show patients:
  • How much they’ll save by purchasing a year supply upfront.
  • The added costs of buying smaller supplies and additional lenses later.
  • Available rebates and discounts that make year supplies more affordable.

Competing with Online Vendors:

• Online retailers may seem like a convenient option, but they often fail to account for the full picture—like rebates or insurance contributions. With the EyeDock Price Calculator, your staff can clearly demonstrate why purchasing from your practice is the better choice. You can provide patients with a personalized, bottom-line price that includes all applicable savings, along with the professional care and guidance they won’t get from an online vendor.

What Patients See: Transparency and Savings

Patients want to know they’re getting the best deal—and they want to understand what they’re paying for. The EyeDock Price Calculator provides a clear breakdown of costs, including:

• The retail price of their lenses.
• Any applicable rebates, discounts, and insurance contributions.
• The total cost of a year supply versus smaller supply options.

By presenting this information in an easy-to-understand format, the calculator builds trust and confidence, making it easier for patients to commit to their purchase.

A Win-Win for Patients and Practices

The EyeDock Contact Lens Price Calculator isn’t just a tool—it’s a game-changer for optometry practices. It simplifies pricing, improves patient understanding, and encourages year supply purchases, helping practices grow their revenue while delivering better service to their patients.
