Face Of 2009



Looking to inspire patients to visit your practice?

We might just have the solution.
Our exciting plans for the months ahead are set to capture the imagination of your local residents - very young, not so young and even middle aged. Some may be patients while others will have passed your practice many times before but never ventured over the threshold.

We are celebrating Optisoft’s 20th anniversary by capturing the ‘Face Of 2009’ and are seeking to collect 20,000 faces – with many from your local area - which together with others from around our shores will create the largest ever national portrait. The scheme is expected to win both national and regional press coverage as areas compete to ensure their region is well represented in the overall portrait. Wouldn’t some of your patients like the idea of helping to create this?

In addition to luring patients to take a close look at their image, the 50p donation requested for each face submitted is set to boost the coffers for the well-respected optical charity, Vision Aid Overseas.

How will this work?



Many of you are already running our Frames on Faces module and this is the tool for the image capture and there is a new version available for download which includes the automated upload of your captured images. Don’t worry if you don’t have it yet – as part of our commitment to this exciting plan we are providing the software FREE of charge for the duration of the promotion, all you need to provide is a suitable webcam.
