Ophthalmic Assistant

Category - History Taking

A patient’s ocular history should include all of the following questions except
  1. “Does the patient wear optical correction?”
  2. “Has the patient had past eye infections?”
  3. “What has been the frequency of change to the patient’s prescription?”
  4. “Does the patient suffer from diabetes?”
Explanation
Answer: D - “Does the patient suffer from diabetes?”

Whether or not the patient suffers from diabetesis not considered part of the patient’s refractory history. Diabetes would instead be part of a patient’s general medical history. Ocular history refers solely to a patient’s eyes.
