Misc Tests and History
This tab displays the data from the Eye Disease Summary, Current Eye Symptoms Summary and the Cornea data, which is taken from the most recent Encounter that contains the latest data for each of these Elements.
For example:
- The last Encounter contains the most recent Eye Disease Summary data, but does not contain the most recent Current Eye Symptoms Summary or Cornea data.
- The most recent data for the Current Eye Symptoms Summary Element and the Cornea Element are contained in the second-to-last Encounter and the third-to-last Encounter, respectively.
- Therefore, MaximEyes® SQL reads the appropriate data for these Elements from:
Element Read from Eye Disease Summary Last Encounter Current Eye Symptoms Summary Second-to-last Encounter Cornea Element Third-to-last Encounter
Similarly, this is done for reading data for the Pupils, IOP, VA, etc.
Note: MaximEyes SQL internally tracks the most recent data for these Elements so that if a second cataract surgery is performed, the Element data from the first cataract surgery is not changed.
Note: All fields are view-only, except Visual Acuities.
- Click the corresponding checkbox to select one Visual Acuities data to include on the Surgery Form.
- To edit the other fields, you must edit their respective Elements on the Patient Encounter.
