The Chart2020
Alternative.
Why practices comparing Chart2020 end up on Ocular Edge — and where Chart2020 still deserves the nod. Sources and spec tables in the full head-to-head.
Chart2020 is proper software with a genuinely deep test library, priced around $49/month (PRO) or $1,699 one-time, with the Dyop test as a paid add-on (August 2026). Practices typically look for an alternative over its dedicated-display architecture, its aging interface, and everything that stops at the chart.
1 · Any screen, no install project
Ocular Edge lanes are browsers and Fire TV sticks paired with a 6-digit code — not dedicated display setups. Calibration is a two-minute ruler measurement per screen.
2 · No per-test add-ons
All 20 chart types and tests ship in every plan — including contrast sensitivity and adaptive screening — with no à-la-carte fees on top.
3 · Past the exam room
The same subscription runs your branded waiting-room channel and AI content tools. A chart library, however deep, doesn't market the practice between patients.
Where Chart2020 still wins
Credit where due: Chart2020's test library is genuinely extensive and its international install base is real. If specific tests in its catalog are must-haves for you, check our sourced head-to-head before deciding.
