FocalPoints supports specialty contact lens laboratories at different stages of their development: from connecting established production to scaling capacity, strengthening control, and expanding into new business opportunities.
Adapt FocalPoints to your workflow and manage complex transitions with experienced support.
BRING YOUR LAB SYSTEMS TOGETHER
Laboratories often add systems and equipment over time, creating more points where information needs to be transferred, re-entered or managed separately. FocalPoints connects orders, business systems, lens design, manufacturing equipment and quality control into a coordinated workflow. Information moves through production with less manual intervention, helping reduce errors and improve visibility across the lab.
ENTER DATA ONCE
Reduce repetitive entry by allowing order and production information to move between systems.
CONNECT EQUIPMENT
Integrate lathes, inspection systems, laser marking, automation and other production technologies.
AUTOMATE DATA FLOW
Reduce manual input by allowing information to flow automatically between systems and equipment.
FocalPoints Quick Order enabled an interaction between ERP, FP, and Lathes that streamlined the process of generating POs and manufacturing the lenses. As a result, we gained flexibility in the use of lathes and achieved a significant productivity boost due to the reduced time for entering production orders, as well as a quality improvement in our lenses.

Connect your systems. Make them work as one.
SCALE AND MODERNIZE YOUR LAB
As laboratories grow, systems built around earlier requirements can become difficult to maintain, extend and automate. FocalPoints provides a platform that can evolve with the business, allowing laboratories to add equipment, capabilities and automation without repeatedly rebuilding their production infrastructure.
ADD CAPABILITIES
Extend FocalPoints with additional functionality as your production requirements and business needs evolve.
EXPAND PRODUCTION
Add lathes, inspection systems and other production equipment without changing the underlying workflow.
AUTOMATE WORKFLOWS
Introduce automation progressively as production volume and operational complexity increase.
Advance Medical meticulously and seamlessly transferred our established lens designs and manufacturing expertise from our legacy environment into FocalPoints. By modernizing our business framework through this process, they not only provided us with a more sustainable platform for the future but also significantly expanded our strategic options and scalability.
Tatsuya Sakurai, CTO, Ophtecs Europe
Your lab will change. Your platform should too.
Although I had over 20 years invested in my own ERP system, I moved my lab to FP and never looked back. That decision freed me to focus on new design development and growing my business. It was one of the best decisions I ever made.
Charley Creighton, Former Owner, Alden Optical
STRENGTHEN CONTROL AND TRACEABILITY
As production becomes more complex, laboratories need more than visibility. They need reliable records of what was produced, how it was processed and what happened throughout the manufacturing lifecycle. FocalPoints connects production data, quality control and traceability while supporting software validation in regulated environments.
MAINTAIN TRACEABILITY
Keep production information connected from order and manufacturing through quality control, labeling and delivery.
SUPPORT COMPLIANCE
Manage identification, production records and controlled processes required within a regulated manufacturing environment.
VALIDATE THE SOFTWARE
Use a structured validation approach covering requirements, qualification, testing, documentation and regulatory expectations.
The Advance Medical team provided tremendous support throughout our software validation activities. Its structured approach helped us efficiently navigate the FocalPoints software validation process by providing clear requirements, comprehensive documentation, professional validation reports, and responsive support. Across multiple project phases and interactions, the team consistently demonstrated strong expertise, timely feedback, and a collaborative mindset, enabling us to effectively address validation requirements, resolve project challenges, and maintain project momentum.

Know what happened. Be ready to prove it.
TURN CAPABILITIES INTO OPPORTUNITIES
Growth is not only about producing more lenses. FocalPoints helps laboratories expand what they can manufacture and commercialize, from accessing designs developed by others Design Owners to distributing proprietary designs and introducing new technologies into established production workflows.
ACCESS NEW DESIGNS
Manufacture licensed designs from other design owners without developing every product internally.
ADOPT NEW TECHNOLOGY
Integrate new diagnostic, design and manufacturing technologies without creating a separate production workflow.
LICENSE YOUR DESIGNS
Make proprietary designs available to authorized FocalPoints laboratories and extend their reach into new markets.
FocalPoints has given KATT a practical and scalable way to share our lens designs with manufacturing partners around the world. The platform allows us to expand into new markets while maintaining consistency in how our designs are produced and ensuring that our intellectual property remains protected. It has become an important tool for extending the reach of our innovations without adding the complexity of establishing local manufacturing operations.
Steve Turpin, KATT Design Group
Expand what you make. Extend where you can go.
Since we first introduced our HOA correction technology in 2019 on a limited scale, countless patients and eye care professionals worldwide have reached out, eager to access it in their country or integrate it into the contact lenses of choice. None of this would have been possible without the dedicated partnership with the FocalPoints team and their world-leading platform. Now, we’re able to deliver advanced, personalized vision correction to more people than ever before, transforming the landscape of patient care worldwide.

IMPLEMENT CHANGE WITH CONFIDENCE
Introducing or modernizing a production platform is rarely just a software project. Advance Medical works closely with laboratories to understand existing processes, adapt FocalPoints where needed, and manage complex transitions while minimizing disruption to ongoing operations.
UNDERSTAND YOUR NEEDS
Start from how the laboratory actually operates, rather than forcing established processes into a standard configuration.
ADAPT THE PLATFORM
Configure and customize FocalPoints around specific production requirements, integrations and business processes.
SUPPORT THE TRANSITION
Work alongside laboratory staff and IT teams through implementation, testing, migration and operational change.
From the beginning of our project, Advance Medical expertise was clear. They guided us through every aspect of the process and remained focused on our goal to minimise impact on our customers despite multiple changes and challenges along the way. It has always felt like we were one team and Menicon Ltd are grateful for the support we have been given by the whole Advance Medical team.
Gaynor Williamson, Managing Director, Menicon UK
The right software matters. So does the team behind it.
