Before you begin
To perform these steps, the patient must be a returning patient with prescription information for eyeglasses from a previous encounter.
For a returning patient with historical data, you can copy a patient’s previous eyeglasses prescription by selecting a set of Lensometry, Refraction, or glasses prescription values from the OPH – Lensometry/Refraction History template to the current encounter.
- Click the Historical Lensometry/Refraction link.
The
OPH – Lensometry/Refraction History template opens.
- For the Refraction History grid, select the option to display either Manifest Rx or Cycloplegic Rx.
- Select the desired row containing the values to copy from one of the grids: Lensometry History, Refraction History, or Glasses Prescription History.
The
Copy to Lensometry,
Copy to Manifest Rx buttons, and
Lensometry options
1,
2, or
3 are enabled.
The Lensometry options 1, 2, or 3 are used to select which set of Lensometry fields to copy to. By default, the option for the first set of empty Lensometry fields is automatically selected. You can copy the values to another set of Lensometry fields. Templates with only one set of Lensometry Glasses fields are Lensometry option 1. If any sets of fields contain data, such as Glasses 1 or 2 or 3, the system asks you to confirm that you want to overwrite the existing values.
Note: The data fields for Lensometry on the Eyeglasses Rx – OPH template are organized into sets of fields for Glasses 1, Glasses 2, and Glasses 3 in the Lensometry section. You can select any combination of Glasses values for OD and OS eyes to use for a prescription for eyeglasses.
- Do one of the following:
- To copy the selected values to Lensometry exam fields, click Copy to Lensometry.
The selected values appear in the Lensometry History grid on the OPH – Lensometry/Refraction History template.
- To copy the selected values to Manifest Refraction exam fields, click Copy to Manifest Rx.
A message appears at the bottom of the template stating that the data has been copied to the Manifest Refraction.
The Copy to Lensometry and Copy to Manifest Rx buttons, and Lensometry options are disabled.
- Click Close.
The
OPH – Lensometry/Refraction History template closes, and you are returned to your workflow.
If you copied the selected exam values to Lensometry, the selected values appear in the respective Lensometry Glasses fields on the Eyeglasses Rx – OPH, Oph EyeTech, and Eye Motility Details Peds – OPH templates.
If you copied the selected exam values to Manifest Rx, the selected values appear in the Manifest Refraction fields on the Eyeglasses Rx – OPH, Oph EyeTech, and Eye Motility Details Peds – OPH templates.
