I am new and have an ophthalmology account. I am not having much trouble with the terms, but I'm unsure how to punctuate and/or format the lens prescriptions.  Does anyone know of a good website that explains this or provides examples?  Thanks!

Gray bad?
Just wondering, has the rule changed in that gray must by abbreviated to Gy?  Nothing in the BOS2.  Nothing in CP.  Account is verbatum.  Doc says clearly gray, and since I have been typing him for 3 years, it has never been changed.  QA had changed gray to Gy in an otherwise flawless report that I don't know why was sent to QA to begin with (this dictator isn't under 100% review and neither am I).  Am I missing something, or is this QA on a power trip.  I love QA and they do wonderful stuff, but, there are some who...well...may need to remove their heads from their bum.

A little anatomy lesson....

The abdominal aorta bifurcates (divides) into the right and left iliac arteries, and the femoral arteries branch off from the iliacs. So when you hear "iliofemoral artery" or anything related, it is almost invariably il-i-o, not il-e-o.
