My Frames

Build, manage, and create orders using your own frame inventory, directly in SpecCheck.

What is My Frames?

My Frames lets you build and manage a personalized library of frame records for your practice. Instead of relying only on Frames Data, you can store your own inventory, including independent brands and in-office stock, and use those records when creating orders.

SpecCheck will also import and backfill your frame data for free! Contact [email protected] to get started.


How to Access My Frames

Click My Frames in the left sidebar to open the Frames Overview page. From here you can:

  • Filter your frames using the Manufacturer, Model, Color, Eye Size, and UPC chips.

  • Add frames with the Add New Frame button (see below).

  • Use the "..." menu on any row to Create Rx Order, Create Duplicate Frame, or Delete Frame.

  • Click a row to open its Frame Details page.


Adding Frames

Click Add New Frame and choose one of three options:

  • Add New Frame Manually – Enter the frame details yourself.

  • Add New Frame with Frames Data – Search the Frames Data catalog and save the frame to your library.

  • Import Frames from CSV – Upload up to 1,000 frame records at once (details below).


The Frame Details Page

Each frame record shows the Manufacturer, Model, Color, Eye Size, Bridge, Temple, Material, A, B, Lens ED, UPC, and trace file, along with the created and last modified dates. From this page you can:

  • Click Create Rx Order to start an order with this frame pre-filled.

  • Click Duplicate Frame to create a similar record (e.g., a different color or size).

  • Click More to edit or delete the frame.

  • View your .OMA trace file shape and key measurements in the Trace File section.


Why Use My Frames?

  • Speed: Add frame details to orders instantly without retyping.

  • Accuracy: Eliminate typos and missing information.

  • Flexibility: Manage independent brands and in-office inventory that aren't in Frames Data.

  • Precision: Attach and view trace files for exact lens measurements.

Column & Field Requirements

Your CSV must include all of these headers. Bolded headers are required for every row.
