After using the TRS for the past two and a half years, I would never want to go back to using the old phoropter. In our Pontiac location, the TRS has made it possible to train our technicians to refract. This allows us more face to face time with patients to educate them about conditions and answer their questions.
Before installing my new Marco Total Refraction Systems, I was experiencing neck and shoulder pain. My discomfort has markedly decreased. By making the refractive process faster, I am able to fit more patients into the day. This frees up time for administrative duties, patients are impressed by the technology. Thank you Marco for making refracting exciting again!

I would like to thank you for introducing me to the Marco TRS automated ophthalmic equipment. It has made a significant difference with being able to conduct the Neuro-Optometric Rehabilitation exam.
The awe expressed by patients after experiencing the Marco TRS Digital Refractor provides a value that cannot be quantified. Further, the precision of the final refraction allows for truly excellent vision, a great reduction in remakes and, most importantly, happy patients. From the data upload to final refraction is 3-5 minutes, allowing for more than two patients more per day, which, in turn, generates an increase in revenue of $696. Our optical sales have increased each year at least 15 percent on average.
Having the TRS system has cut down so much on the time required to enter data into the phoropter and into the electronic health record. It shortens the time doing the refraction, and the choices are easier for patients, who often get stressed about determining which is clearer.
Our practice’s favorite refractor is the Marco TRS. Not only is it quiet, fast, efficient and comfortable, but it also has the “cool” factor. It allows us to evaluate, document and auto-populate (using our Exam Writer software) each patient’s unaided visual acuity, lensometer reading, acuities with eyeglasses, auto-refraction, subjective refraction values, associated acuities, phorias and even the keratometer readings (if your ARK or OPD is synched up). You can even check and document phorias, vergences, fusion status, stereopsis, near acuities, NPA, NPC, NRA and PRA. If the TRS could read and fit soft contact lenses, it might be able to examine patients without me!
The Marco technology has certainly increased productivity within my practice. The TRS has not only improved my efficiency, but has enhanced my patient’s experience. Patients love the technology and we loves its positive impact on our practice in the exam lane, in optical and in patient referrals.
The process Marco implements, leads to increased profitability and efficiency. The EPIC allows more quality time with patients to make recommendations, while increasing the number of patients I can see each day. It also has a tremendous WOW effect on patients!
My patients are impressed with the technology and I like the quick old vs new comparison. The TRS increases efficiency, which leads to more opportunities for optical sales.
