Research Analysis
Methodology & Findings

University Eye Specialists, associated with universityeyecenter.org (the University Eye Center at SUNY College of Optometry), utilizes a patient portal branded as EyeConnect. This online platform allows patients to manage appointments, communicate with their doctors, request medication refills, and access their health records. The electronic health record (EHR) system underpinning the EyeConnect portal at the University Eye Center is provided by NextGen. A 2015 announcement detailed the adoption of NextGen's integrated solution for managing patient care activities, including an EHR system and plans for a secure portal. Furthermore, the login page for the EyeConnect portal references "NextMD.com" in its URL and instructions for email notifications, and mentions the ability to access data through the "NextGen API," further solidifying the connection between the EyeConnect portal and the NextGen EHR system.
