Optikam uses patented LiDAR and computer vision to capture 10 eyewear measurements from a single image. The ultimate dispensing tool for modern optical practices.

About

Optikam is a cutting-edge dispensing and fitting solution built for eye care professionals who want to modernize their practice and deliver superior patient experiences. At its core is the OptikamPad application, which leverages patented computer vision and LiDAR technology to extract ten critical measurements—including monocular Pupillary Distance, Vertex Distance, Pantoscopic Tilt, Frame Wrap, and Position of Wear—from a single frontal image captured in moments. The Optikam Posture Device (OPD) is the only tool that allows ECPs to accurately capture a patient's natural posture without requiring the clinician to be at the same eye level, closely mirroring the traditional manual dotting process. For practices preferring a device-free approach, Optikam's patented LiDAR mode measures PDs, heights, and position-of-wear measurements without placing any reference device on the eyewear. Automatic Image Detection eliminates manual reference point placement, delivering instant measurement results after each snapshot. All data flows into the Optikam Cloud Service, which provides detailed usage analytics, remote technical support, data protection, and multi-station licensing—making it ideal for multi-location optical practices. By capturing as-worn measurements that account for how a frame will sit on a patient's face once dispensed, Optikam enables lens manufacturers to deliver truly personalized progressive lenses, significantly reducing costly remakes and improving patient satisfaction. Optikam is the modern standard for optical dispensaries looking to compete with online eyewear retailers.

Key Features

  • 10 Measurements from 1 Image: OptikamPad captures ten Position of Wear measurements from a single frontal snapshot, including PD, Vertex Distance, Pantoscopic Tilt, and Frame Wrap—in the time a pupilometer captures two.
  • LiDAR No-Device Measurements: Patented LiDAR technology allows ECPs to measure PDs, heights, and position-of-wear data without placing any reference device on the patient's eyewear.
  • Optikam Posture Device (OPD): The only dispensing device that captures a patient's natural posture from any angle without requiring the ECP to be at the same eye level, mirroring the traditional manual dotting process.
  • Automatic Image Detection: AI-powered automatic detection of measurement reference points delivers instant results immediately after each snapshot, eliminating time-consuming manual placement.
  • Optikam Cloud Service: A cloud platform providing detailed usage analytics, remote technical support, secure data protection, and multi-station licensing for optical practices of all sizes.

Use Cases

  • Optical dispensaries modernizing their fitting process to replace outdated pupilometers and manual measurement tools with AI-powered technology.
  • Eye care professionals capturing precise Position of Wear measurements to enable fully personalized progressive lens prescriptions.
  • Multi-location optical practices leveraging cloud analytics and multi-station licensing to standardize measurement quality across all locations.
  • Optometrists and opticians reducing costly lens remakes by obtaining accurate as-worn measurements that account for actual frame fit and posture.
  • Eyewear retailers competing with online optical stores by offering a superior, technology-driven in-store dispensing experience.

Pros

  • Massive Time Savings: Capturing 10 measurements in a single snapshot dramatically reduces chair time per patient compared to traditional methods using pupilometers and manual tools.
  • Flexible Measurement Modes: Supports both device-assisted (OPD) and fully device-free (LiDAR) measurement workflows, giving ECPs the flexibility to work in their preferred style.
  • Reduces Costly Remakes: As-worn measurements that account for actual frame positioning minimize lens prescription errors, significantly cutting down on expensive remakes and patient dissatisfaction.
  • Cloud Analytics & Multi-Station Support: Built-in cloud service offers practice-wide analytics, remote support, and licensing across multiple stations—ideal for growing or multi-location practices.

Cons

  • Niche Market Application: Optikam is exclusively designed for eye care professionals and optical dispensaries, making it irrelevant outside this specialized industry.
  • Hardware Investment Required: Full functionality with the OPD device requires purchasing proprietary hardware, adding upfront cost beyond the software subscription.
  • Adoption Learning Curve: Practices accustomed to traditional pupilometers and manual tools may require staff training and a period of adjustment before fully realizing efficiency gains.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is OptikamPad?

OptikamPad is Optikam's flagship application that uses AI and computer vision to capture up to 10 eyewear measurements—including all Position of Wear parameters—from a single frontal image. It is designed to replace traditional dispensing tools like pupilometers and sharpie pens.

Can I take measurements without placing a device on the eyewear?

Yes. Optikam's patented LiDAR technology enables device-free measurements of PDs, heights, and Position of Wear parameters without the need to place any reference device on the patient's frame.

What measurements does Optikam provide?

Optikam captures ten measurements from a single image, including monocular Pupillary Distance (using frame midpoint for accuracy), Vertex Distance, Pantoscopic Tilt, Frame Wrap, and other Position of Wear parameters needed for personalized progressive lens customization.

What is the Optikam Cloud Service?

The Optikam Cloud Service is a backend platform that stores patient measurement data securely, provides detailed usage analytics for the practice, enables remote technical support from Optikam, and supports multi-station licensing for practices with multiple dispensing stations.

How does Optikam help reduce lens remakes?

By capturing as-worn measurements that account for how the frame will actually sit on the patient's face once dispensed—including nose pad adjustments and frame fit—Optikam provides more accurate lens prescriptions than anatomical measurements alone, significantly reducing the need for costly remakes.
