Network of 1,000+ optometrists and ophthalmologists building integrated practice management infrastructure
EyeCare Partners operates a national network of optometry and ophthalmology practices unified through shared operational systems and clinical standards. The tech stack—Java, Spring Boot, React, AWS EMR, Datadog—points to an engineering effort building microservices-based EMR and practice-management infrastructure from the ground up. Active projects include end-to-end architecture design and proof-of-concept work, while hiring leans heavily toward healthcare operations and clinical roles (270+ positions), with engineering constrained to single-digit headcount—a common pattern in healthcare consolidators where clinical integration and operational scaling outpace software development velocity.
EyeCare Partners is a network organization that brings together independent optometry and ophthalmology practices across the United States. Founded in 2015 and now spanning over 300 ophthalmologists and 700 optometrists, the company operates as a private equity–backed platform consolidator, standardizing workflows and best practices while preserving individual practice autonomy. The organization addresses core pain points across its member practices: patient flow, physician documentation burden, insurance collections processing, and profitability management. Operations are headquartered in St. Louis, with 5,001–10,000 employees distributed across practices nationwide.
The stack includes Java, Spring Boot, React, AWS EMR, Datadog, and Microsoft Office suite (Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook). The company is actively building microservices-based EMR and practice-management architectures and proof-of-concept features.
