One entry per case
A form built from a surgeon’s own spreadsheet: biometry, IOL, complications, 4-week outcome. Derived values such as LogMAR, spherical equivalent and prediction error are worked out for you.
For cataract surgeons and their teams
Your cataract logbook and outcome audit, in one place.
Logbook and Audit of the Cataracts is a free, offline-first cataract surgery logbook and outcome audit. Surgeons record each case once, see NOD-style outcomes (posterior capsule rupture, visual acuity, refractive accuracy) straight away, keep patient identifiers encrypted on their own device, and can share de-identified results with their hospital or a community optometrist.
Free for individual surgeons. Works offline. Hosted in the EU.
What it does
Built from a working surgeon’s own spreadsheet and the National Ophthalmology Database definitions, so the numbers mean what audit leads expect them to mean.
Outcomes the way NOD measures them
PCR by the NOD definition, final VA 6/12 or better, vision loss of 0.30 LogMAR or more, and refraction within ±0.5 D and ±1.0 D of target, with UK figures beside yours for UK workspaces.
Works without a connection
Cases save on the device and sync when the network returns. Theatre Wi-Fi going down never costs a case.
Identifiers stay yours
Names, MRN, date of birth and notes are encrypted on your device with a key only your PIN or recovery code opens. The server stores ciphertext.
Hospital workspaces
A department gets its own workspace and key, approves its own people, and sees concepts-only reports, with a log of who opened them.
Post-op checks by optometrists
Give the patient a slip with a code. Their optometrist records VA, refraction, IOP and findings at 4 weeks; you apply it to the case in one step.
Bring your Excel logbook
Import an existing spreadsheet; every row is checked against the form before it is saved. Export to Excel or CSV at any time.
A statement for appraisal
A printable case statement and the audit table for appraisal, revalidation or a training portfolio.
Started in three steps
No installation and no IT ticket: it runs in the browser on your phone, tablet or computer, and can be installed like an app.
Sign up and choose a PIN
Free for any surgeon or trainee. The PIN turns on encrypted patient details on your device.
Record cases, or import your sheet
Fill in the case form after each list, offline or online, or bring in the Excel logbook you already keep.
See your outcomes
The audit updates as you go: PCR, visual outcomes and refractive accuracy, filtered by date, surgeon, role or complication.
Outcomes as you go, not once a year
The audit updates with every case: posterior capsule rupture by the NOD definition, final visual acuity, vision loss and refractive accuracy, filtered to any period, surgeon or complication.
For consultantsWho uses it
Trainees building a logbook
Record every cataract case with your role and supervision, keep the logbook on your own devices and account, and print a case statement with your outcomes for your training portfolio or annual review.
Consultants auditing their own outcomes
See your PCR rate, visual outcomes and refractive accuracy as you go, against UK NOD figures, and keep identifiable details encrypted on your own device for appraisal and revalidation.
Hospitals and departments
Give the department one workspace: surgeons log cases into it, the hospital holds its own encryption key, and owners and auditors see outcome reports built from coded answers only, with no patient identifiers.
Community optometrists
Enter the 4-week check from a code on the patient’s slip: VA, refraction, IOP, findings and an outcome. No account and no patient identifiers are needed, and the result goes straight to the operating surgeon.

Questions surgeons ask
How much does it cost?
The personal logbook and audit are free, with unlimited cases. Pro (for individual surgeons) and Hospital (per seat) plans are coming; their prices will be published on the pricing page before anyone is charged. Paid plans come with a 14-day refund window.
Can the company or the hospital read my patients’ names?
No. Names, MRN, date of birth and notes are encrypted on your device; the server stores only ciphertext. In a hospital workspace they are encrypted with the hospital’s own key, which only its members hold.
Does it work without internet in theatre?
Yes. Cases save on the device and sync when the connection returns. Patient details open offline on a device where you have already unlocked them.
Does it calculate outcomes the way NOD does?
It follows the NOD definitions: PCR with or without vitreous loss, combined procedures excluded from rates, final VA 6/12 or better, vision loss of 0.30 LogMAR or more (from 60% paired VA), and refraction within ±0.5 D and ±1.0 D. UK figures are shown for UK workspaces only.
Can I import my existing Excel logbook?
Yes. Map your columns once; every row is checked against the form, and rows with problems are listed so you can fix them before anything is saved.
