Documenting Autorefraction and Keratometry
Autorefraction is a computerized eye test that measures how light changes as it enters the eye, while keratometry measures the shape and curvature of a cornea. This tutorial will demonstrate how to document autorefraction and keratometry in a patient exam in Vision(X).
Begin the exam, then select the Autorefraction & Keratometry category to open the documentation fields. If this field was documented by a non-provider (technician) or will simply not be completed as part of this exam, select the check box for "To Review" or "Not Performed" as appropriate:
Select type (Autorefractor or Wavefront) from the drop-down menu, then enter values into the corresponding fields. Values may be entered manually for each field, and selecting a field may open a slider menu for easy selection of value. If applicable, use the "show night value toggle" to enter data for night time vision. All fields can be quickly re-set using the "Clear All" button:
Keratometry
Select either the Diopter or MM toggle, then enter values into the corresponding fields. Values may be entered manually for each field, and selecting a field may open a slider menu for easy selection of value. All fields can be quickly re-set using the "Clear All" button, or use the "Skip field" button if this will not be documented for today's exam:
