A revised Diabetic Eye Examination Report (DEER) form was developed to improve communication between optometrists and physicians for diabetic patient care. The new form enhances clarity and professionalism in reporting eye health status.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Optometry
  • Public Health

Background:

  • The American Optometric Association (AOA) previously used a Diabetic Eye Examination Report form.
  • A need existed for a standardized, easily implementable reporting form for clinical practice.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To revise the existing AOA Diabetic Eye Examination Report form.
  • To create a new standard reporting form for diabetic eye examinations.

Main Methods:

  • Ohio Optometric Association (OOA) members piloted a revised Diabetic Eye Examination Report (DEER) form.
  • Optometrists completed the DEER for 5 consecutive diabetic patients.
  • Surveys were administered to participating optometrists and comanaging physicians regarding the form's content and format.

Main Results:

  • The DEER form was revised based on feedback from 51 optometrists and 75 physicians.
  • 100% of participants agreed on the importance of communication.
  • 88% of optometrists and 95% of physicians found the form adequate.
  • 87% of physicians were interested in using the DEER as a standard communication tool.

Conclusions:

  • A new, standardized Diabetic Eye Examination Report form is available.
  • The form is available in electronic and printed formats.
  • The revised DEER aims to improve professional and legible communication for diabetic patient eye care.
