How Optometrists benefit from outsourced tax and bookkeeping services
Did you know:
- The average independent optometrist spends 8-15 hours / week on accounting, payroll, and direct billing – earning nothing for this time
- Canadians change their eyeglasses every 2.7 years, but the average optometrist doesn’t use systems that track these cycles on a patient-by-patient basis
- 25% of eyeglass wearers in Canada buy multiple pairs of glasses.
- Optometrists with effective and integrated billing systems get paid by insurance companies the next day
- Nearly all optometrists we meet overpay their GST/PST/HST.
An integrated optometry accounting and eClaim billing system streamlines operations; freeing up your time and giving you better information to make more informed business decisions.
Outsourcing bookkeeping for optometrists gives you more time to increase the size of your practice by seeing more patients.
Our goal is simple: you use our specialized tools and team to give you your time back. We want to help you put patient care above everything else, while we handle the complicated nature of your cash flow and tax in the background.

What our Optometrist clients say about us
“I run a busy optometric practice, and Achen Henderson CPAs looks after my financials, while I stay focused on looking after my patients. After a busy day seeing and managing patients, it is so nice to come home to spend time with my young family instead of poring over payroll and bookkeeping. My staff get paid on time, and properly, which keeps them happy, and my books are managed by a professional who knows the ins and outs of my business. Achen Henderson CPAs is extremely organized and the future of business consulting, utilizing well-developed mobile apps to manage payroll, timesheets, bookkeeping, and documents. They are responsive and thoroughly understand the needs of young entrepreneurs. It is so refreshing to have someone who can guide me in making decisions that are in my business’ best interests.”
