Dictated:  

Cataract, left eye, reducing vision to 20/50, -1.

 

I have never had a vision given with a negative digit. Is this right? TIA!!!

re: eye vision; yes or 20/50, -1.00 - maleMT/nm

Vision - dsauverwald

There is no comma usage here - it is 20/50-1, or with a space 20/50 -1. Depending on your account/physician specifics, you do not need the decimal points either (-1.00, just -1), but if you are required to do so, then obviously keep them in.

thank you dsauverwald; decimals for -0.50, etc. - maleMT/nm
