VisionWeb, LP is a SILVER level sponsor of the American Optometric Association.

VisionWeb is the leading provider of software and technology services to streamline and simplify the eye care industry. Utilizing the power of the Internet, VisionWeb has created easy-to-use, electronic solutions for insurance transaction processing and ophthalmic product ordering. These solutions help eye care practices drive out inefficiency, increase customer satisfaction, and improve their bottom line.

VisionWeb's insurance services provide eye care providers with a comprehensive solution for managing the insurance side of their business. Using these services, eye care practices can submit and track insurance claims, verify patient eligibility, and retrieve electronic remittance information - all online, and in a fraction of the time it takes to perform these functions manually. This service is also compatible with several practice management systems, allowing users to upload claim files created in their system and send them directly to their payers, without having to enter duplicate information. Electronic claim filing through VisionWeb is convenient, improves claim acceptance rates, and helps to shorten reimbursement time; ultimately giving eye care providers better control of this vital part of their business.

VisionWeb's online ordering service makes it easier than ever before for eye care providers to manage ophthalmic product ordering. As an open and neutral company, VisionWeb has connections with hundreds of suppliers of spectacle lenses, contact lenses, and frames. This broad connectivity allows practices that use VisionWeb to experience the benefits of online ordering, while maintaining relationships with the suppliers they know and trust. VisionWeb's ordering service is also equipped with useful features like trace file uploading, which helps ensure accurate order processing, and online order tracking, which gives the practice access to real-time information without having to call their lab. For added convenience, VisionWeb's online ordering service is integrated with industry-leading practice management systems, allowing users to order electronically to their suppliers without having to access the VisionWeb site or re-key order information.

Recognizing the benefits of VisionWeb's services, the AOA partnered with VisionWeb to help bring these benefits to the practice through VisionWeb's AOA Royalty Program. This program allows eye care providers to contribute non-dues revenue to their state affiliate, just for ordering on VisionWeb. VisionWeb pays a royalty to participating AOA affiliates each time its members place an order through VisionWeb. In 2010, VisionWeb paid $51,011 in royalty payments to participating state affiliates.

Each state affiliate must agree to participate in the program in order to receive these royalties. AOA state affiliates that would like to learn more or enroll their state in the program are encouraged to contact VisionWeb at

VisionWeb is proud to support the AOA and is dedicated to providing services that help independent eye care providers succeed. Visit www.visionweb.com to learn more.
