Eyefinity EHR System Requirements

This page explains the requirements for Eyefinity® EHR. These system requirements are routinely reviewed and updated.

The requirements outlined on this page represent the minimum hardware and system specifications required to effectively use the Eyefinity EHR. Failure to meet these requirements will noticeably degrade the performance of the software.

Ensure that you also meet the requirements for your practice managements software. For example, OfficeMate® users must also meet the system requirements specified on the OfficeMate System Requirements page.

Individual pieces of diagnostic equipment may have their own system requirements. Verify the requirements with your hardware vendor.

iPad Requirements

Use any of the following iPad® models running iPadOS 17.1.1 or later.

  • iPad (6th generation or later)
  • iPad mini (5th generation or later)
  • iPad Air (3rd generation or later)
  • iPad Pro (2nd generation or later)

When acquiring a new iPad, you should always purchase the latest model to ensure the longest useful life. The models listed here represent all supported models. While you can install the latest iPadOS and Eyefinity EHR on the lowest models listed here, performance may suffer.

Printing from the iPad requires an AirPrint-capable printer. Refer to Apple's AirPrint Basics page for more information about AirPrint.

Wireless Keyboards

While Eyefinity EHR is designed to allow you to tap and swipe through patient encounters, you may occasionally need to supplement your visit notes with written annotations. For the best experience, Eyefinity recommends the following iPad keyboards:

  • Apple Smart Keyboard Folio
  • Logitech Slim Folio iPad Keyboard Case

Workstation Requirements

The requirements listed below represent the minimum specifications required by Eyefinity EHR.

Note: If you are running OfficeMate on the same workstation, you must also meet the OfficeMate requirements. Refer to the OfficeMate System Requirements page.

Hardware Requirement
Operating system 1

Windows 11 (Pro, Enterprise)
Windows 10 (Pro, Enterprise)
Windows Server 2016 or later

Business-grade TWAIN compatible

Most modern scanners support TWAIN drivers. If you're not sure whether or not your scanner is TWAIN compatible, contact your device's manufacturer.

1 Ensure your operating system also meets the requirements of any diagnostic or imaging equipment attached to the computer.

Internet Bandwidth Requirements

Business-grade Internet connectivity is required. The following table shows the minimum and recommended bandwidth speeds. For the best experience, meet or exceed the recommended bandwidth speed.

Number of Practice Users2 Minimum Bandwidth Speed Recommended Bandwidth Speed
1–5

5 Mbps download
3.5 Mbps upload

10 Mbps download

100 Mbps download
25 Mbps upload

To verify your practice’s bandwidth, go to Speakeasy Speed Test and select the city closest to you. If your bandwidth does not meet the minimum requirements for your practice type, contact your Internet service provider.

2 Number of users is based on the number of practice users (doctors, staff, and patients) simultaneously using Eyefinity cloud products (Eyefinity Practice Management, AcuityLogic, and Eyefinity EHR, including the patient kiosk) at the practice location.

Wireless Router Requirements

You will need a router to connect your iPad to the Internet wirelessly. Select a business-grade router and enable wireless security and encryption for HIPAA compliance. For the best experience, meet or exceed the optimum recommendation.

  Minimum Optimum Recommendation
Wireless standard 802.11n 802.11ac AirPort Extreme
Access points3 One per 3,500 sq. ft. One per 2,500 sq. ft. AirPort Express

In addition, we recommend having a 4G LTE cellular hotspot available as a secondary Internet connection. While the cellular hotspot is useful in emergencies, you will notice dramatically slower performance, and it is not intended for daily use.

3 Work with your certified network technician to determine the number and placement of access points required for optimum wireless coverage.

Network Requirements

The following ports and protocols must be enabled on your network.

Port Protocol
80 HTTP
443 HTTPS
