sland Eyecare has had OSI
Group in its corner since the
Victoria-based clinic first
opened its doors a decade ago.
Dr. Anita Narang, the practice’s
optometrist, says the company’s
services have proven to be invalu-
able and its support to Member
clinics is top notch.
“OSI Group comes with a wealth
of knowledge and resources,” says
Dr. Narang, whose clinic was estab-
lished in 2009.
“They help consolidate a lot of the
work. They have a great network
of people who offer support and

anything you may need. They work
with many practices, so they are
quickly able to let you know what
works and what doesn’t. The end re-
sult: happy patients that have been
cared for to the best of our ability.”
Island Eyecare outgrew its initial
location and moved to a larger
space in 2017 in the historic Mosaic
building on Fort St near Cook St.
The practice offers comprehensive
services, including full eye exams,
retinal imaging, visual field exams,
glaucoma and macular degeneration
management, contact lens fitting, a
dry eye clinic and emergency care. It
also has a large selection of frames,
wide range of lens options and a
state-of-the-art edging lab.
Island Eyecare takes advantage of
many of the services and support
offered by OSI Group, which has
been at the service of independent
owner optometrists for 37 years.
OSI Group offers a multitude of
services such as group purchasing,
centralized invoicing and payments
as well as consulting, digital mar-
keting and Web services. Its Opto-
sys practice management software
includes patient, sales, schedule,
order, inventory and clinic exam
management functionalities to
meet each clinic’s needs.
Recently, Optical Prism spoke with
Dr. Narang about her practice and
the benefits of being an OSI Group
Member clinic.
