Prescription tracking and WhatsApp reminders for opticians in Algeria

The trade in Algeria

In Algiers, opticians mostly see clients who come in with their ophthalmologist’s prescription, choose a frame, then come back a few days later to collect their glasses. Some opticians have an agreement with the CNAS, which adds a coverage file for part of their clients. Between ordering the lenses, collection and adjustments, each client comes back several times.
