AI agent for optometrists
Optical Order Tracking Agent
Deliver correct orders to patients on time
What it does
Every pair of glasses and contact lens order goes through a lab or supplier and can stall or arrive wrong. This agent tracks each order from submission to pickup. It checks lab status daily and sends an inquiry for orders 3 days past due, updating the patient if there is a delay. When an order arrives, it compares the lens parameters with the prescription: power, axis, add, prism and coating, using standard tolerances. Anything outside tolerance is held and a remake request is drafted. Before dispensing, it checks that the prescription has not changed since the order was placed; a changed prescription blocks dispensing. It drafts the pickup message. Staff approve remakes and messages. Edge case: if the prescription was updated after ordering, the old order is flagged so it is not dispensed.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
