AI Treatment Planning for Ophthalmology

Let an AI agent handle chart reviews, risk analysis, and treatment plan drafting—so you can focus on patient care instead of paperwork.

You spend hours each week as an ophthalmologist digging through Epic or Cerner EHRs, cross-checking guidelines, and typing up plans in Microsoft Word. Every complex case means more time lost to documentation and manual review, leaving you behind on consults and follow-ups.

An AI agent that reviews patient records, analyzes diagnostic data, and drafts personalized treatment plans for ophthalmologists.

What this replaces

Extract patient history from Epic EHR for each consult
Manually review OCT and visual field reports from Zeiss FORUM
Type treatment recommendations into Cerner PowerChart
Compile summaries for second opinions using Microsoft Word
Research guideline updates for rare cases via AAO website

The hidden cost

What this is really costing you

In ophthalmology practices, physicians and clinical staff lose significant time each week manually reviewing patient histories in Epic, extracting diagnostic results from Zeiss FORUM, and drafting treatment plans in their EHR. This repetitive work piles up, especially with complex glaucoma or macular degeneration cases. The result: less time for direct patient care, more after-hours charting, and increased risk of missing critical details.

Time wasted

If you keep ignoring it
