Blink overview

What is Blink?

Blink is a cloud-based optometry solution designed to help independent opticians manage appointments, examinations, recalls, and more. It lets users collect examination data using forms with drop-down lists to automate data entry processes.

Key features of Blink include appointment management, patient records, recall tracking, and SMS reminders. It provides opticians with the tools to build business websites, allowing new and existing patients to book appointments online and receive confirmations via email. The solution provides teams with functionality to send bespoke recalls to targeted patients via SMS, email, or post, in order to generate more appointments.

Blink helps organizations record and track National Health Service (NHS) vouchers, and get visibility into the status of payments after conducting prism cover tests (PCT) for patients. Plus, the system maintains a backup of patient data whilst meeting General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) regulatory guidelines.
