04 / OPTOMETRY
Bring your optometry practice into focus.
Optometry startups combine professional services, diagnostic equipment, and often optical retail—each with different planning needs.
FIRST THINGS FIRST
Start with the right questions.
The early business model should account for clinical capacity, optical inventory, staffing, equipment, and working capital.
- How many exam lanes and what service mix are envisioned?
- What diagnostic instruments and optical components are planned?
- What staffing and inventory may be required at opening?
- How should startup and operating expenses be estimated initially?
- What specialized advisors and lender conversations are needed?
