Electronic Ordering
Our electronic ordering system enables optical laboratories to place lens and frame orders through an intuitive web interface. The platform supports matrix-based product selection with complete parameter ranges for both finished and semi-finished lenses. Orders are automatically transmitted to participating vendors multiple times daily for optimal fulfillment speed.
Barcode Scanning
Barcode scanning functionality allows for rapid replacement lens ordering using standard barcode readers. The system directly integrates with laboratory management software to maintain accurate inventory records and streamline reordering processes. This feature reduces manual entry errors while accelerating order preparation times for optical professionals.
FTP/SFTP Integration
Secure file transfer capabilities enable automated order processing through laboratory management systems. Labs can generate purchase order files that are transmitted via encrypted FTP/SFTP protocols with automated confirmation emails. This enterprise-level solution supports batch processing for high-volume operations while maintaining strict data security standards.
Product Search
Comprehensive product search functionality provides access to our complete lens and frame database. Users can search by SKU, parameters, or vendor specifications with real-time availability information. The matrix display shows complete product ranges including sphere/cylinder powers for finished lenses and add powers/base curves for semi-finished products.
Replacement Ordering
