Emerging benefits of IT

Patient management systems are just the start of an IT revolution that will change the face of retail optics, according to the heads of teh newly merged Ocuco-Relcon

But what the pair have in mind could change the face of lens ordering between independent practices and labs. The rationale behind the merger was to create the critical mass to push product development on to the next generation of systems and bring new ideas to the market.
