Eyewear Challenges:
  • If your inventory is not properly managed and you are NOT able to locate a particular frame in a couple of minutes you can very easily lose that sale.
  • Your eyeframes are always in jeopardy of theft because there are so many people that are able to get their hands on the inventory easily.
  • Shrinkage (theft) is about Two Percent in retail establishments across the board but in optical it's almost Seven Percent.  

Why is the rate of theft so much higher in the optical world?

  • There is no easy way to trace most items that are sold in optical, plus they are small, easy to conceal, and have a high resell value.
FrameMinder: 
  • Allows you to easily manage your entire inventory while greatly reducing theft.
  • Easy to install and use and your staff can be trained in a few hours. 
    •  
PatientMinder:
  • Allows you to track and monitor the Patients progress during laser surgery by using RFID badges.
  • A laser surgery Clinic with ten to twelve Doctors can perform surgery on three hundred or more patients per day.
  • The work in progress and general workflow for the Doctors to monitor the patients and their activities can become a nightmare if not properly managed.

Eyewear Industry Overview: Eyewear stores operate in an established and mature industry.

  • Annual revenues for 2011 exceeded ten billion dollars for the industry.
  • Average annual growth rate is 2.7%.
  • In 2011 there were over 7,600 retail Eyewear outlets in the U.S.
Future Trends: Healthcare reform and favorable demographic changes will benefit the industry in the years to come.
  • The aging U.S. population will continue to drive demand for prescription eyewear, especially as consumers continue to work at computer-related jobs.
  • Another benefit to Eyewear retailers will be the healthcare reform bill which will give more people access to vision care while boosting demand.
