Visionix USA announced that it recently entered a strategic alliance with 20/20NOW “to help bring cost effective, in-office, quality synchronous tele-optometry comprehensive eye exams and ocular telemedicine closer to more patients throughout the U.S.”

According to Matt Vulich, Vice-President National Accounts at Visionix Americas, “20/20NOW shares the same passion as Visionix in helping eyecare prrofessionals (ECPs) grow and scale their business. Together, we will help optometry practices and optical retailers offer comprehensive eye exams at scale. With this strategic move, we can now offer our customers the option to grow through tele-optometry.”

Innovation Designed to “Unlock Your Potential in Tele-Optometry”

20/20NOW says it is helping ECPs and optical retailers successfully launch and operate tele-optometric services in over 30 states. Visionix says that alliance allows it to offer 20/20NOW’s Tele-Optometry platform “with Visionix’s integrated, advanced, accurate, and user-friendly devices to offer world-class tele-optometry.”

Expanded Options for Current & Future Visionix Customers

Visionix will remain the direct access to all Visionix products. However, those who would like to explore an alternative business model now have telemedicine experts working, in tandem, to understand state, legal and operational considerations to establish a telemedicine-enabled clinic. Combining the strength of these two teams, Visionix says ECPs will be able to launch “modern, multi-location opticals and practices that utilize tele-optometry.”
