Viewing Historical Data on the iPad
As you record your impressions and plans, you may want to review the information from the patient’s past visits. From within each plan, you can choose to view the historical data for a patient.
To view historical data for a patient

The Eye Log shows a history of the findings for the patient over past visits, the most recent procedures and tests performed, the most recent diagnoses, and the most recent follow-up visit.
You can also access the Eye Log from the More action bar icon throughout the patient's chart. To learn more about the Eye Log, go to Viewing the Eye Log (iPad).

The Patient Clipboard Summary shows the patient's most recent medical and ocular history, medications, allergies, and social and family history. The Patient Clipboard Summary also shows the date the history was last reviewed.
