Visionix USA Forms Strategic Partnership with 20/20NOW

Visionix USA has formed a strategic alliance with 20/20NOW, with the objective of making affordable, in-office, synchronous tele-optometry eye exams and ocular telemedicine more accessible to a broader range of patients across the United States.

The financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

“20/20NOW shares the same passion as Visionix in helping eye care professionals (ECPs) grow and scale their business. Together, we will help optometry practices and optical retailers offer comprehensive eye exams at scale. With this strategic move, we can now offer our customers the option to grow through tele-optometry," Matt Vulich, VP National Accounts at Visionix Americas, said in a company news release.

20/20NOW assists eye care practices and optical retailers in initiating and managing tele-optometric services in over 30 states. Through this collaboration, Visionix can integrate 20/20NOW's tele-optometry platform with Visionix's integrated devices, providing a comprehensive tele-optometry solution.

Visionix has highlighted that individuals interested in exploring an alternative business model can now leverage the expertise of telehealth professionals who collaboratively address state, legal, and operational considerations to establish a telehealth-enabled clinic. By harnessing the combined expertise of these two seasoned teams, eye care professionals (ECPs) will have the capability to launch contemporary, multi-location opticals and practices that fully embrace tele-optometry.
