Customer Management

Customer profiles built for opticians

Name, address, and contact details are just the start. A Lume profile carries the customer's prescriptions, insurance, orders, and every message you've sent them, so any team member at any location can pick up the relationship right where it left off.

The profile

The whole relationship on one page

Contact details, insurance, prescriptions, orders, messages: everything your practice knows about a customer sits on one profile. Whoever is at the counter sees the same complete picture, at any location.

Prescriptions

Scan it, upload it, or type it in

Capture a prescription however it arrives: scan the paper with your camera, upload a photo, or enter it by hand. Every Rx saves to the profile, labelled and dated, so the full history is right there the next time the customer is picking frames.

Communication consent

CASL consent, captured as you work

Lume records consent the way CASL actually defines it: implied consent from the customer's interactions with your business, and explicit consent from a simple flag on their profile. When you send a message, you already know you are allowed to.

The full record

Insurance, orders, and messages on file

Insurance details sit on the profile, ready when you quote. Order history shows everything the customer has bought and where each order stands. Communication history shows every reminder and message the practice has sent, and who sent it.

History & notes

Every change tracked, every note kept

Edit anything on a profile and Lume records what changed, who changed it, and when. Add notes wherever context helps, like a fitting preference or a conversation worth remembering. Six months later, you will know exactly what happened and why.

Frequently asked questions

What is optical patient management software?

It's the customer side of a practice-management system: one profile per customer holding contact details, prescriptions, insurance, orders, and communication. In Lume, that profile is built for opticians rather than adapted from a generic CRM.

How do I add a prescription to a customer's profile?

Three ways: scan the paper Rx with a camera, upload a photo, or enter it manually. Each prescription saves to the profile with a label, and the full history stays available as new ones come in.

How does Lume handle CASL consent?

Lume records both kinds CASL recognises: implied consent from a customer's interactions with your business, and explicit consent from a flag on their profile. You always know whether you can message someone before you do.

Does Lume track changes to customer profiles?

Yes. Every edit records what changed, who made it, and when. You can also add free-form notes to a profile, so context lives alongside the record.

Help build the software your practice runs on

Founding Members are part of the change from day one. You'll have a direct line to our team and a real hand in shaping the future of optical technology.

The Founders Club

For opticians who refuse to settle.

You didn't build your practice to be average. You sweat the details: the experience at the front desk, the products on the wall, the care behind the chair, because you're chasing the best, and you know it when you see it.

Then there's your software. It's old and slow, and the fixes you keep asking for never seem to come.

The Founders Club is for opticians who want to be part of the solution.

Optical software is stuck in the 90s. We're not building to simply catch up to today's tech. We're building the future of optical technology, shaped around how a modern optical practice runs.

Founding Members join our journey at the start. You get a strong voice in shaping the future, with a direct line to the founding team.
