AEYE Health expanded its Epic EMR integration for AI eye screening, and AEYE-style imaging add-ons point to some optometry relevance. A JAMA analysis found Epic the only EHR vendor linked to better interoperability for at least one data element. Clinicians repeatedly call the interface a 1990s-era UI failure with complicated multi-step workflows, and one reviewer flatly called it the worst EHR.
