WHAT WORKSHOP CAN DO FOR YOU?
ENVISUS HOA CORRECTION
For decades, Higher Order Aberrations (HOAs) have presented a formidable challenge for lens designers. FocalPoints, offers a cutting-edge solution to HOA correction with the enVisus® Special Feature. Leveraging our proprietary Aberration Correction Engine (ACE), enVisus achieves precise correction of HOAs, thereby establishing a new benchmark in visual excellence.
INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY
By utilizing a single barcode scan for all manufacturing operations, FocalPoints enhances efficiency, minimizes errors, and elevates quality control standards. This streamlined approach ensures that each step, from inputting order parameters to lathing and lens inspection, is seamlessly managed.
MANUFACTURING MADE SIMPLE
FocalPoints simplifies lens manufacturing by structuring orders, production, and equipment into one integrated workflow. It helps labs reduce manual tasks, improve efficiency, and maintain consistent quality while keeping full control over production data and processes.
ADVANCED SIMULATION TESTING
An essential aim of FocalPoints is to expedite the contact lens design process, by providing an unique suite of Simulation Testing tools. These virtual analysis tools drastically reduce development timelines, enabling the Lens Designer to rectify most issues before the manufacturing phase, eliminating the need for excessive trial iterations on the Lathe.
MONITOR ALL MANUFACTURING KPIs
The Manufacturing Live Dashboard, an optional feature for Workshop editions, offers a dynamic interface for real-time production analysis. This tool enables informed decision-making, with automatic updates and instant access to manufacturing data to spot trends, patterns, and potential issues.
ENABLE FULL TRACEABILITY
The FocalPoints Workshop Full Traceability module captures all data logged by FP programs throughout manufacturing. Access the complete history of each lens—from production to shipping—via a single interface. Each task is time-stamped and linked to the operator. Centralized data storage not only cuts archiving costs but also accelerates data retrieval.
Workshop allows manufacturing under license, but also developing your own design to be licensed to other FocalPoints users securely. In order to protect a design and issue a License, one must have the Design Owner Toolkit. Being able to distribute or manufacture third-party designs under License has several advantages: accessing new markets, increasing margins and reducing risks, creating new revenue streams.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I create my own designs in Workshop?
Yes, FocalPoints Workshop allows you to create your own designs—whether for corneal, scleral, Ortho-K, soft, or hybrid RGP lenses. Designs can be symmetric, toric, quadrant-specific, or fully free-form, with spherical or aspherical profiles. The available simulation tools support the development of both monofocal and multifocal lenses. Special FeaturesSpecial Features can also be integrated into your designs, offering additional control and unique design tools.
What's the advantage of Full Traceability?
The Full Traceability module is exclusive to Workshop and gathers all the information logged by every FP program during the manufacturing process. The entire lens history, from production to shipping, can be accessed from a single interface. Every task performed on the lens is recorded by the system, tracking the operation details, the date/time and the operator's name.
Can I have Live Monitoring tools?
Yes. The Manufacturing Live Dashboard is an optional module available exclusively with FocalPoints Workshop editions. It provides a dynamic, real-time view of your production environment, giving you instant access to key metrics and operational data. With automatic updates and visual insights, labs can quickly identify trends, optimize performance, and address potential issues before they impact efficiency—making it an essential tool for data-driven decision-making and continuous improvement.
Is it compatible with current equipment?
Yes, Workshop is fully integrated with a wide range of laboratory equipment. Whether you’re using lathes, topographers for lens fitting or inspection tools for quality control, Workshop can integrate smoothly with most industry-standard devices. For a full list check our Integrations page.
