A Recall must now be added to a Sight Exam Record. Indeed, you will not be able to Save the record until one (or more) have been added. The screen is shown below.

Any NHS Entitlements the patient has are shown, and these can be added to using the GOS Entitlements button. Reasons for an Early Retest, the Rx status, Vouchers used and Evidence seen can also be entered.

Recommendations can be ticked in the right hand panel; these will be reflected in the Dispense screen for the Dispensing Optician. 

Finally, the Recall schedule can be set by selecting an option from the Available Recalls  area. One Sight Exam (SE) can be set, while unlimited multiple Additional Exams (AD) can also be added: For example, the next sight examination may be in 12 months, but a pressure check is required in 4 weeks. 

FLEX will then automatically give the Due Date based on how many Months the default is. The Months can be updated, and the Due Date will automatically update. The Due Date itself can also be manually entered.

You can now press Save. A "flash of green" will go across the screen as the Patient Timeline populates according to the recall schedule.

The Sight Exam Record is now complete!

To streamline the completion of the sight examination record and where options have been enabled in setup, a summary of errors will be displayed when saving the record. If none of the sight exam forced validation options have been enabled in branch setup, the window will not be displayed. These can be customised under Menu - Setup - Branch.
