Rayner has announced a strategic partnership with Promptly Technology Inc (US) to integrate eyejourney - its state-of-the-art, AI-driven digital patient education platform - directly into clinic software to automate patient enrolment.

1 October 2026 | Worthing, UK

eyejourney helps vision care clinics deliver personalized education, medication reminders, informed consent and surgical guidance and support for all ophthalmic procedures. It addresses a well-documented gap in care - where patients forget up to 80% of what they are told during consultations¹ - by serving AI-powered video content to answer patient questions prior to, during and after their procedure.

The result is a reduction in consultation and chair time of up to 40%², as reported by Dr Neuhann at a recent ophthalmology conference (DOC 2026), proving better-informed patients mean more efficient clinics.

Through Promptly's Patient Experience Suite, patients in the US can automatically enroll onto the eyejourney platform the moment they enter a clinic's system, with no manual processing or disruption to existing workflows. 

For patients, it delivers the right information seamlessly, exactly when they need it. For clinics, it means shorter consultations, a lighter administrative load on both clinical and administration teams, and a smoother overall patient experience.

Dr Stanley Windsor, Head of Digital Health at Rayner, commented: " With over 5,000 patients enrolled to date, we are thrilled to bring valuable education and support to patients around the world. With this existing new integration our reach extends significantly, enabling patients throughout the US to access eyejourney without adding any additional administrative load to the clinics we partner with!" 

Dr Anish Kapur, Founder and CEO of Promptly, said: "At Promptly, our mission is to empower both practices and their patients by streamlining the entire care journey. By integrating our Patient Experience Suite with eyejourney, we're removing administrative friction for clinic staff and ensuring essential patient education is delivered seamlessly - resulting in more confident patients and highly efficient clinics." 

The integration is now live. To learn more, head to the Rayner booth at the upcoming AAO congress in New Orleans from 9-12 Oct 2026 or visit eyejourney.ai.
