VisionUnlocked For Practitioners
Parent/Child Pre-Exam Questionnaire
VisionUnlocked provides an online form designed to collect information regarding your child patient, prior to them coming in for their appointment. This saves time and improves the accuracy of the information provided, as it allows the parent time to think about their answers or even to find the information while still at home.
Following information gathering, you are provided a summary of presenting complaint, medications, with information on use and ocular side effects, patient ocular, medical and scholastic history, family ocular, medical and scholastic history, sports, musical instruments and interests. Where possible we integrate with your practice management software to find or create the patient in your files along with an examination screen with the above details pre-entered.
With this pre-examination details at your fingertips you are saved time every time VisionUnlocked is used. Following your evaluation, where possible, our API draws eye exam information from your practice software and combines this with preliminary data and the results from the iPad vision therapist based assessment to generate a comprehensive vision report. This report comes to you with your practice details and logo promoted on every page.
Adult Pre-Exam Questionnaire
This is another time-saving web-based form which collects patient data, and provides a summary for the optometrist.
The analysis from the questionnaire informs the practice about drugs being used, how the patient uses their eyes, screen time, dry eyes, outdoors activities, headaches, problems with current glasses, queries about contact lenses or surgery and even provides a scaled score on Quality of Life with dry eye. This in turn generates information for increased sales etc.
Reporting and Analysis
A multiple page report following testing is created and emailed directly to the practitioner, ready for discussion with the patient and forwarding to their school. The behavioural optometrist is still in control and can add or modify any of the wording in the report and can contribute to ongoing application changes to improve the effectiveness of the program.
The reporting is available in letter, spreadsheet and graphical format and provides you, your vision therapist and your patient’s parents with the information required to ascertain where a child between the ages of 6 and 14 years may be having vision developmental difficulties which in turn lead to learning difficulties.
How does VisionUnlocked help your practice?
VisionUnlocked is not a test which can be performed without the evaluation and observation skills of a behavioural optometrist and vision therapist. VisionUnlocked supports the behavioural optometrist and provides opportunity to easily determine where on the developmental pyramid to start vision therapy. Vision unlocked relates symptoms and key performance indicators to your eye examination results. VisionUnlocked guides behavioural optometrist when to refer and what to recommend to other allied health and educational professionals. It selects what activities, modifications and tools can be added to the classroom dependant on the age and skill levels of the child.
There is no better way to grow your practice than word of mouth. VisionUnlocked encourages you to use these reports to share them as PDF documents with parents who will share them with other parents, teachers, occupational therapists, speech therapists, audio metrists and chiropractors. These in turn will recognise your ability to provide thorough informative learning difficulties evaluation that can guide these professions to perform better. VisionUnlocked communicates with these professionals in your area by gaining contact details from your patients, and promotes you as a user of VisionUnlocked.
Why integrate VisionUnlocked into your practice?
We support independent behavioural optometrists who want to provide quality vision assessment which reaches much further than just 20/20. VisionUnlocked is an easy to use addition to your assessment protocol and can replace many of your current on paper assessments in a single application.
The iPad assessments take 1-2 hours of your vision therapists time, but report writing is eliminated allowing more time for assessment, more in-depth assessment for dyslexia, breaking it down into its components of dyspraxia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia, dysnemkinesia, dyseidesia and dysphonesia, whilst considering laterality, dominance, midline awareness, auditory processing, sequencing and visual aliasing. VisionUnlocked enables rapid age-related assessment of all these criteria. We provide classroom accommodations relevant to the vision issues discovered and the age of the patient, helping promote your practice to teachers.
VisionUnlocked in combination with your quality behavioural optometrist assessment helps provide the tools and activities required to help remove the anchors impeding a child’s academic progress.
