May is Healthy Vision Month — a reminder that eye health is about more than just sight tests.

With increasing screen time and rising rates of dry eye symptoms, patients are looking for more proactive and connected care experiences.

From remote monitoring to digital patient engagement, technology has an important role to play in supporting:

✔ Earlier intervention
✔ Better treatment adherence
✔ Ongoing patient communication

At AOS, we’re excited by the growing opportunity for digital tools to help practices deliver smarter, more connected eye care.

Dry eye management shouldn’t stop when the patient leaves the practice.

For many patients, symptoms fluctuate daily — influenced by screen time, environment, and contact lens wear. Yet follow-up is often limited to occasional in-store visits.

👉 This is where remote patient monitoring can change the game:

- Ongoing symptom tracking
- Better treatment adherence
- Earlier intervention when things worsen

The result? More engaged patients — and better clinical outcomes.

At AOS, we’re exploring how digital tools can support continuous care beyond the clinic, helping optical providers stay connected to their patients in a meaningful way.

The shift to hybrid eye care is happening.

Patients increasingly expect:
✔ Convenience
✔ Digital touchpoints
✔ Ongoing support between visits

In areas like dry eye and contact lens aftercare, this opens the door to a more effective model:

🏥 In-practice assessment
📱 Remote follow-up & monitoring
💬 Continuous patient engagement

The practices that win will be those that combine clinical excellence with digital accessibility.

At AOS, we’re building solutions that help providers bridge that gap — creating seamless experiences from first visit to long-term care.

Recent research highlights just how closely dry eye disease (DED) and contact lens intolerance are linked.

Many patients don’t “drop out” of contact lenses because they want to — but because tear film instability, inflammation, and discomfort reduce wear time dramatically. http://bit.ly/47bN5Uf

And it’s not just symptoms — contact lenses themselves can disrupt the tear film and increase evaporation, worsening the https://bit.ly/3PmTK7V

The takeaway for optical providers:
Dry eye management isn’t separate from contact lens care — it’s foundational to it.

At AOS, we’re focused on enabling better patient journeys, where clinical care, financing, and engagement work together to support long-term outcomes.

It’s Awareness Month!

February is Age-Related Macular Degeneration & Low Vision Awareness Month — and there’s no better time to spotlight the importance of protecting your vision.

At AOS, we know that great vision doesn’t happen by accident — it’s the result of proactive care, regular check-ins, and a lifestyle that supports eye health.

Top tips to keep your eyes healthy this week:
🔹 Take regular breaks from screens with the 20-20-20 rule — every 20 mins, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
🔹 Eat a balanced diet rich in leafy greens and omega-3s to support retinal health.
🔹 Schedule your next eye exam — early detection makes all the difference.

Great optical innovation needs more than great UX.

It needs:
✅ clinical validity
✅ objective measurement
✅ regulatory readiness
✅ data integrity at scale

AOS was built with that in mind.

Our digital tools are designed to support both real-world eye care delivery and clinical-grade measurement — including structured endpoints for redness / hyperaemia assessment.

That means:
• objective bulbar redness grading (repeatable & consistent)
• telemedicine and remote workflows for real-world use
• managed services to support clinical research and evidence generation
• a platform approach built for integration and scaling

If you’re looking for MedTech innovation that sits naturally inside optical care pathways — and is built to meet the standards of regulated healthcare — we’re ready to collaborate.

Dry eye is no longer a niche condition — it’s becoming one of the defining growth areas in optometry.

The challenge isn’t diagnosis alone. It’s scaling structured, repeatable assessment and follow-up across a high-volume optical setting.

AOS supports this with digital tools that enable:
• Customisable dry eye history & symptom capture (in-clinic or remote)
• Objective bulbar redness grading to track inflammation and progression
• Remote visual acuity testing for structured follow-up
• Telemedicine workflows for hybrid care

For optical groups and lens innovators, this creates a pathway to:
✅ better patient experience
✅ consistent data capture
✅ scalable ocular surface management

We believe dry eye is one of the biggest opportunities in modern optical care — and digital tools need to match the clinical and commercial reality.

AOS software “has the potential to play a vital role in future clinical research trial integration for clinical investigators.” Patrick Vollmer, OD.
