\"Data \"Optical<\/p>\n

In short:<\/strong> Optical products such as frames, sunglasses and lenses are medical devices and are tracked individually in Turkey’s Product Tracking System (\u00dcTS)<\/strong>. Optical companies can quickly print Data Matrix labels<\/strong> with the product number, serial\/lot and dates using Barcode Label Pro and its OPT\u0130KBAS<\/strong> add-on.<\/div>\n

Why do optical products need Data Matrix codes?<\/h2>\n

Optical products used to be registered in the Social Security Institution’s National Database (UBB) and later in T\u0130TUBB. In 2017 T\u0130TUBB was closed and replaced by the Product Tracking System (\u00dcTS)<\/a>. \u00dcTS tracks optical products individually from the manufacturer to the optician and the patient, so each product needs a code carrying its product number and serial\/lot data.<\/p>\n

The OPT\u0130KBAS<\/strong> add-on for Barcode Label Pro provides fast Data Matrix printing tailored to opticians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
