The Q-2100 Digital Lens System allows you to produce lenses in-house at a fraction of the cost when purchased from a traditional lab. Once integrated into your practice successfully, you will see an impressive reduction in outside lab costs. As a practice owner, manager or lab manager, it is important you take an active role in monitoring production and outside expenditures to ensure that you are utilizing the technology to its fullest potential.

• Check your lab bill to see what was produced in office and what was purchased from an outside lab. Are you capturing all progressive, photochromic and AR jobs possible? You should maximize production of jobs that fall in the range of the technology. Remember, you are producing digital designed lenses, some of the best in the industry. Promote the premium products you produce in-house first.

• Check your lab bills and compare the cost to producing in-house. While you are undoubtedly focusing on the most profitable products, verify what you are paying for custom processed single vision and FT lenses. You may find that it is more cost effective to produce these lenses in-house as well.

• Continue to check your outside lab bills for total dollars spent. As with all new technology, there is a certain level of excitement that is present when first purchased. Usage starts out high as the lens unit is new and fun. Over time, production levels may fall as it becomes part of every day operations. Make sure the enthusiasm for the technology remains strong through incentive plans and monthly goals that reinforce your commitment to in-house lens production and practice profitability
