The development & study of clinical efficacy of an optometric pre-case history form

This thesis involves the development and testing of clinical efficacy of an optometric pre-case history form. Subjectively and objectively, it was found that the recording of the adult patient\u27s background information can be made more complete by the use of a standardized patient-completed pre-case history form, that takes four to five minutes to complete. Patient acceptance and intern attitudes toward this precase history form were found to be very positive
