Foundation Who we build for Opticians

Websites and booking
for opticians.

Two years is a long time to remember an eye test. A recall that sends itself is worth more to an independent practice than any amount of advertising.

The bit that hurts

Two years is a
long time.

The independent practice's whole economic model is recall, and most of them are running it on a card index and hope.

01

Recalls that never go out

Patients drift to a chain because nothing reminded them, and you find out when they come in wearing someone else's frames.

02

Booking only in opening hours

You are shut when most people think about it. A patient who cannot book at nine at night books the multiple down the road who can.

03

NHS and private muddled

Voucher eligibility, entitlement and private fees explained on the phone every single time, and inconsistently.

04

Nothing tells them the glasses are ready

So they ring. Then ring again. It is one of the most common calls a practice takes and it should be a text.

An example site

A site that books
the test.

This example is a healthcare site built to reassure and to book — treatments and prices in plain numbers, and a booking flow that respects appointment lengths and rooms.

An example healthcare site. Yours would be designed around your practice, not recoloured from this one.

What we build for you

Recall is the
whole business.

Booking gets you today's diary. Recall gets you the next twenty years of it.

01

Two-year recalls that send themselves

By text and email, with a booking link, at exactly the right moment. It is the highest-value automation an independent practice can have.

02

Patients book their own tests

Sight test, contact lens check or audiology, each with its own length and room, and none of them bookable into a gap that is too short.

03

NHS entitlement explained on the page

Who qualifies for a free test and a voucher, and what private costs. Answered once, properly, instead of forty times a week.

04

“Your glasses are ready”

Sent automatically when the lab order comes back. One of the most common calls a practice takes, ended.

05

Contact lens direct debits

Monthly plans collected automatically, with failed payments chased rather than quietly written off.

06

Dispensing records and reminders

What they bought, when, and when the prescription expires — so the second pair conversation happens at the right time.

The system behind it

Booking, in a
working flow.

Service, clinician, slot, details, confirmed. The taken slots are genuinely taken.

How it goes

First working build
in 72 hours.

Practices start with recall, because it pays for the whole build within a couple of months.

01

A call about your diary

Test lengths, rooms, clinicians, and what your recall interval actually is.

02

A working site in 72 hours

Live, with booking working.

03

Recalls loaded

Your existing patient list and last-test dates imported and scheduled.

04

Then the rest

Ready-to-collect texts, contact lens plans and dispensing reminders.

Quick answers

Practice questions,
answered straight.

How much does an optician's website cost?

From £250 built and handed over, or £220 up front plus £19 a month hosted and maintained. Booking and recall are quoted free.

Will it send two-year recalls?

Automatically, by text and email, with a booking link. For an independent practice this is the single highest-return thing on the page — recall is the business model.

Can it handle NHS and private?

Yes, including explaining entitlement on the website so your staff stop doing it forty times a week, and recording which applies to each appointment.

Does it replace our practice management software?

Usually not, and we will say so honestly. What it replaces is the recall card index, the booking phone call and the “are my glasses ready” call.

Can we take contact lens payments?

Yes, as monthly direct debits through Stripe, with failed payments retried and chased rather than silently lost.

Can patients book audiology too?

Yes — different appointment types, lengths, rooms and clinicians, all in one diary that will not double-book a room.

Answered?
Two fields and a tap. You'll hear back from a real person, usually today.
