FAQ

Can optometry practices use AI for patient communication?

Yes. AI can help draft reminders, explanations, follow-ups, and retail-support messages, but staff should verify accuracy, privacy, product claims, and clinical appropriateness before anything is sent.

What optometry information needs careful handling?

Patient names, eye-health history, prescriptions, clinical notes, images, payment details, complaints, and product recommendations need approved handling and careful review.

Where should optometry teams start with AI?

Start with low-risk draft support for reception scripts, recall wording, FAQ updates, internal procedures, and reviewed patient education based on approved practice information.
