Way too many ads
Absolutely ridiculous amount of ads. Just screenshot the picture so you can avoid a dozen ads while working with patients. Perhaps someone should develop a competing app that doesn’t blast you with interruptions
Too many color plates
Can you allow the user to select either 24 or 14 color plates? With the recent update, I find 24 plates are redundant and not always necessary for a quick check. They double the testing time. I use this in an ED setting for suspected neurologic vision loss. Please give the 14 plate option back!!
Obnoxious ads
Great app marred by advertising pop-ups and overlays that repeat immediately after you skip or close them. I would gladly pay to avoid the nuisance. Pass.
No CPT codes available
This app was great for both ICD10 and CPT codes. Unfortunately, with the new update that CPT codes are not available which is a shape because it was the 1ry reason I used this app.
excellent

Advertisement pops up every 10 seconds when you are trying to do vision acuity test. I am registered and logged in. I don’t think it is the right way to promote things
eye handbook
It's a great app. I just downloaded the app, and it looks like a lot of advertisements.
Not very useful
Poor reference for eye emergencies.
This used to be user friendly.
Not sure what happened. This used to be user friendly. Now I can’t find anything.
Missing tumbling “E” and Landolt “C” charts
This app is definitely the best Ophthalmology app out there. Very useful and helpful in or even outside the clinic. The only downside for me is that it’s missing the “E” and/or the “C” charts. I’m sure it’s a very simple feature to add, yet it’s going to be a huge addition to the app. Especially for the illiterate or those who aren’t familiar with the English alphabet. I hope you can add them to the app soon. Much support to the developers of the app! Keep up the great work!
Ads
Nothing like doing a patient exam for an ad to pop up please allow a purchased version at least
Leaderboard menu appears improperly
The leaderboard menu appears improperly on Ipad Air 2 running on iOS 14.7
Don't like their "philosophy"
How rude to require that I share my private info with you & register before you'll allow me to customize my home page. This has changed since onset & became more of a social app--if I wanted to be play on Facebook I would do that! I want info & I want it to be fast & straight forward. I'm an ophthalmic educator & used to recommend this as my top "eye" app but no longer...
Very good
Perfect for improving your studies and to keep contact with other ophthalmologies
Terrific resource App
Great and very handy source of important information that help in testing and taking care of Ophthalmologic problems!
Unable to make account
I am new to the field of ophthalmology as an ophthalmic tech but am unable to create an account. I don’t have any NPI or registration number and when I select “Other Ophthalmic Technician” in the “Profession” tab, the app does not let me register.
It could be a great app
But it's not optimized for iPhone plus
Eye Handbook
Cluttered interface, some tests such as the OKN strip useless, and inability to add my own ICD codes. Very limited usefulness of this app.

This app is FANTASTIC! Sending to my staff to utilize!
Invasive ads
I realize that ads are necessary to support the developers of this very useful app, but they are very hard to skip - you have to wait for the full ad to load in order to get the skip button. If you’re in the basement of a hospital with poor reception, the ad may never load and you’re stuck with a blank screen! There should be a timer that gets rid of the ad after 10 seconds if it doesn’t load.
Excellent resource
Love the tests and coding modules. I wish the medications were more up to date and had more dosing info.
Just ok
Does not add a whole lot that I can't get straight from Google, plus it sends little messages that I cannot get to turn off. The app does not show up in the notification center so it bypasses it and sends useless messages.
Neat app
Why is this not available for iPad? It is a good app otherwise, but will not download to my iPad, only iPhone...
Great Ophthalmology App
Best eye app available. Love the testing tools. Great for coding and forums. Love the calculators. A lot of information just sometimes hard to find it. Kudos.
Doesn’t work
Not sure if it’s the new iOS but nothing loads.
Very good app
Good app with versatility

Lifesaver!!!
Best eye app...
Medical Coder Auditor
So far I am really having a good time.
Crashes...
It keeps crashing. Won't open.
Pretty good
Would like if it opened where it left off. Or to have a favorites button.
Solo per oculisti
Direi applicazione veramente utile per il nostro lavoro. Si dovrebbe migliorare con protocollo terapia di urgenza oculistica e alcuni calculator come la formula srkt.
Excellent
I wish it would be updated more frequently
Can't register in 2.0
Crashes when trying to register, at the country selection tab.
super app
a must have app for all practicing ophthalmologists
To the developer
After the recent update the app shuts down at the registration phase when I choose the country and I can not go beyond the registration phase any solution
Excellent app
Good app for patient education and examination very handy
EBH
A very useful tool for practicing eye professionals
