Getting Started with the Stock Portal

Learn what the SpecCheck Stock Portal is, who can use it, and how to place your first order for stock lenses and supplies.

What is the Stock Portal?

The SpecCheck Stock Portal lets your practice order stock lenses and supplies directly inside SpecCheck. Instead of a separate ordering website, you can browse available products, see real-time stock levels, build a cart with your team, pay statements, and track every order in one place.

Stock lenses are pre-manufactured lenses for common prescriptions. They arrive ready to be edged to your frame, which makes them a fast, affordable option for single vision jobs and for keeping a lens bank in your practice.

Who can use it?

The Stock Portal is currently in beta with a select group of practices.

When we move out of beta, any eye care practice will be able to sign up and order stock lenses and supplies, whether or not you work with a SpecCheck in-network lab.

If you don't see the Stock Portal in your account and would like access, contact us at [email protected].

How to get to the Stock Portal

  1. Click the drop-down arrow next to your practice name in the purple header bar at the top of SpecCheck.

  2. Click Switch to Stock Portal.

  3. To go back to prescription ordering, open the same drop-down and click Switch to Rx Portal.

You'll know you're in the Stock Portal when the page title reads Stock Orders Overview and the button in the top-right corner of the header says Stock.

A quick tour of the portal

The menu on the left side of the screen takes you everywhere you need to go:

Click the three-line menu icon in the top-left corner to collapse the side menu to icons only and give yourself more screen space.

What you can do in the portal

  • Browse lenses by material, coating, vision type, color, manufacturer, lens type, and diameter.

  • Order from a power grid that shows stock availability for every sphere and cylinder combination. See Reading the Stock Lens Grid.

  • Order supplies by category, with live availability and pricing for each item. See How to Order Stock Supplies.

  • Order for a patient or for inventory using Reference Orders and Inventory Orders. See Reference Orders vs. Inventory Orders.

  • Share a cart with everyone in your practice.

  • Get free ground shipping on orders of $65 or more. A progress bar on the Stock Inventory page and in your cart shows how close you are.

  • Track orders from submission to shipment, including tracking numbers.

  • Pay by statement instead of paying at checkout, with optional autopay.
