Formisoft for Ophthalmology

Scheduling, intake, surgical consent, and reminders for eye care practices

Ophthalmology practices manage diverse scheduling needs across routine eye exams, surgical consultations, pre-operative visits, and post-operative follow-ups. Formisoft provides online booking with provider-specific calendars, visit-type rules for separating clinical and surgical appointments, and automated reminders that reduce no-shows for high-value surgical consultations.

Get started Talk to sales

Before the appointment, Formisoft sends intake forms that capture detailed ocular history, vision symptom checklists, medication lists including eye drops, surgical history, and procedure-specific consent. For LASIK, cataract extraction, glaucoma surgery, and intravitreal injections, patients review procedure details, risks, and post-operative instructions on their own device and sign electronically. Pre-operative questionnaires collect health clearance information and anesthesia history before the procedure date.

After the visit, automated workflows handle follow-up: post-surgical check-in reminders, next-appointment scheduling prompts, copay collection through integrated payments, and review requests to build your practice's reputation. Forms are designed for accessibility on any device, making it easy for elderly patients or caregivers to complete intake from home.
