Rayner has developed RayPRO, a mobile phone and web-based app for collecting patient-reported outcomes (PROs) for three years after surgery. This is a bespoke platform that has been specifically developed to record outcomes after cataract surgery, gathering information on patient satisfaction and visual outcomes with the potential for quality improvement and complying with new legislation on medical devices. RayPRO is free to all Rayner IOL users. Tim Clover, Rayner CEO, said: “Speaking with surgeons, their number one goal is always patient outcome; however, keeping on top of this metric for three years can be a challenge. As consumers, we’ve become accustomed to accessing key information instantaneously day or night on our smartphones. “Being able to offer surgeons the same service for surgical outcomes is the driver behind RayPRO,” said Mr Clover. https://rayner.com/
