In-network, out of network, opt-out, Open Access - as an eye care professional, one of the most important decisions you'll have to make for your practice lies not in whether or not to participate in vision plans, but how you choose to do that.

Watch as we discuss the problem with vision plans, how to drop them and how you can guarantee success out-of-network.

How do eye care providers handle out-of-network claims? We take a look at three different approaches to out-of-network claim submission.

Interested in selling independent eyewear such as ZEISS? We can help you get started by providing comparisons to common good, better, best Varilux progressive lenses.

Planning on escaping the eyewear monopoly? Hoya offers lenses that can help you do it. Here are how they compare with Varilux progressive lenswear.

Eyewear is eye care. As an eye care professional you need to ensure each patient has lenses that fit their unique needs. How do Shamir and Varilux stack up?

We are living in interesting times to say the least: inflation, economic downturns, global unrest, social media and all that has come with it. So much has changed in the world over the last 16 years since I graduated from ICO.

Eye care was already going through major shifts with regard to access to care long before anyone had even heard of Covid-19 or its variants and like lots of other things, the pandemic caused many to rethink how access to care can work.

Medical practices changing ownership is not a new phenomenon, and certainly not in eyecare.

Our goal at Spyglass is to help eye care providers gain or reclaim their independence in practice. We work to provide education that allows you to have greater control over your professional decisions, expand your patient base, and establish yourself as a leader in the field.

In order to improve diversity in optometry, we should focus on serving underrepresented areas, and new optometrists can help lead the charge.

Instantly generate rebates for patients on eyewear you're already selling!

Rebates have the potential to strengthen patient relationships and boost sales. Unfortunately, most rebates are set up to be a hassle. So how can ECPs make sure rebates work for their patients?

Whether it's streaming media, meal kit deliveries, or curated boxes of stuff, almost all of your patients have an optional monthly subscription or two; apply this to your eye care practice and stop the walk problem before it starts.

The Great Resignation is presenting problems for all kinds of business. Optometry staffing has become increasingly difficult. But what if the solution didn't include hiring?
