Every word was written by a board-certified ophthalmologist who performs cataract surgery for a living. Not a marketing team, not a vendor.
No vague reassurances, no sales language around specialty lenses, no minimizing surgical risks. Plain language, the way a surgeon talks to a patient.
No premium tier, no upsell, no appointment funnels, no data harvesting. This app exists to help patients, full stop.
What it is
EyeInsight is not a telehealth app. It does not replace your physician. It is a collection of tools that help you understand your eye conditions, prepare for surgery, stay on top of your drop regimen, and get honest answers to questions most patients have between appointments.
The app
Six features
No filler screens, no paywalled content.
A full-featured eye drop reminder system. Add any drop, specify which eye, choose a schedule, get notifications. Includes a large built-in library of common eye drops with correct cap colors, a cataract post-op taper scheduler, plus a dose adherence calendar.
Post-op careA six-section patient journey written in the surgeon's voice: what cataracts are, when surgery makes sense ("we don't tell you when it's time, you tell us"), what the procedure involves with named risks, how to choose a lens, and what to expect before and after. No sales angle.
Surgery educationSix at-home screening tools: near vision (Snellen-style), contrast sensitivity (Landolt C), color vision (24 plates), Amsler grid for macular function, astigmatism screen, and eye dominance test. Framed as screening, not diagnosis.
At-home screeningReal-time camera filters showing what cataracts, macular degeneration, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, floaters, diplopia, visual snow, astigmatism, negative dysphotopsia, and other conditions look like. Adjustable severity sliders. Useful for helping family members understand what a relative with vision loss experiences day to day.
Real-time cameraA gallery of 21 classic illusions with an "Illusion of the Day" feature, each with a plain-language explanation of the perceptual mechanism. A memorable demonstration that vision is as much a brain process as an eye process.
Visual perceptionSurgery FAQ, post-op guide, eye disease library, daily eye fact, and a 9-question IOL Decision Guide with a built-in IOL Simulator showing monofocal, EDOF, and trifocal views for reading, computer, outdoor, and night driving. Trade-offs stated plainly, including halos for trifocal lenses and the surgeon's own lens preference.
Reference libraryEye Care Physicians & Surgeons has served the Willamette Valley since 1949, with six ophthalmologists and four optometrists at three Salem-area locations. EyeInsight was built by one of our partners to extend that care beyond the clinic.
