About
Sightview is a comprehensive Electronic Health Records (EHR) and practice management software solution designed exclusively for eye care professionals—including ophthalmologists, optometrists, and optical retailers. Unlike general-purpose EHR platforms, Sightview is built from the ground up to address the specific workflows, documentation needs, and billing complexities of eye care practices. The platform offers customizable EHR workflows for ophthalmology and optometry, integrated scheduling and billing tools, and real-time reporting and analytics to help practices make data-driven decisions. Optical management features connect retail and clinical operations, allowing staff to manage inventory, prescriptions, and point-of-sale in one system. Sightview extends beyond clinical documentation with value-added services including MIPS reporting to maximize CMS reimbursements, end-to-end Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) to reduce claim denials and accelerate cash flow, and Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) solutions to streamline surgical coordination. Integrated payments further unify front-desk and back-office operations. With over 1,000 practices, 5,000 providers, and 15,000 users on the platform, Sightview is trusted by eye care organizations of all sizes—from independent practices to multi-location groups. Its intuitive design minimizes the productivity loss typically associated with EHR transitions, enabling providers to get up and running quickly while delivering excellent patient experiences.
