Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: EyeLog at none against Ophthalmic Instruments's shown. EyeLog also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 34 months) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Ophthalmic Instruments's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 71%). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
