Ease of continuous use

The possibility of continued use of EyeComTec software means the possibility of transition from a commercial license to a non-commercial at the end of treatment process in the medical or rehabilitation center.

During the patient’s stay in any paid medical facility, patients use the program under the supervision of the attending or service personnel. After the treatment process has ceased, the user can continue to use EyeComTec software products for free. In such a case, technical specialists can provide all the data and settings, which were created during the patient's stay in the medical facility: matrixes of samples, configuration files and any other information. After returning home, the patient can immediately continue to use the software, involving already familiar settings.

Any alternative technology is much more expensive and not every patient can purchase them for personal use. Furthermore, order fulfillment and delivery can take a very long time, during which the patient has to suffer from significant communication inconveniences. Unlike other technologies, all software developed by EyeComTec facilitates the transition from the conditions of the medical center to home conditions, which allows the patient to achieve proper rehabilitation.
