Your practice management software handles appointments and optical orders. Nobody handles the compliance trail the GOC expects: sight test records, contact lens aftercare, dispensing documentation, clinical audit. OpticPad handles all of it.
Opticians' practices in the UK. The GOC sets standards for record-keeping, clinical governance, and continuing education. Fitness-to-practise cases often start with documentation failures.
Sight test records must be retained for a minimum of 10 years. Contact lens records likewise. Paper records deteriorate, get lost, or fill entire storage rooms.
GOC requires continuing education and training points per registration cycle. Missing CET points risks suspension from the register. Tracking points across multiple providers is the challenge.
Everything the GOC checks when they visit.
Per-patient digital record. Reason for visit, clinical findings, refraction, advice given. 10-year retention. Searchable archive.
Structured CL record per patient. Lens type, parameters, wearing schedule, aftercare notes. Follow-up scheduling with reminders.
Per-dispensing record linked to prescription. Frame, lens type, measurements, special requirements. Full traceability from test to collection.
Phoropter, autorefractor, tonometer, retinal camera, OCT. Calibration dates and next-due alerts. Evidence of properly maintained clinical equipment.
Points, activities, and evidence per CET cycle. Track across multiple providers. Always know your CET status before the deadline.
Structured audit templates. Referral accuracy, prescribing patterns, patient outcomes. Evidence of reflective clinical practice.
Patient complaint log with response deadlines, investigation tracking, and outcome recording. Professional complaints process evidence.
AI-generated self-assessment against GOC standards for optometrists and dispensing opticians. Records, training, calibration, audit. Readiness score.
AI-generated call scripts. Outbound SMS and WhatsApp reminders. Inbound call logging with voicemail transcription. Automated bulk reminders for sight test reminders, contact lens reorder prompts, and appointment confirmation calls. No other optician compliance tool has built-in telephony.
