title: [Collection and processing of ophthalmologic findings with a personal computer].
abstract: In a recently presented paper we proved that it is easy possible to store and analyse data form patients in a strabological department by using purchable data base programs and personal computers. The new program, we now use, has the opportunity to show all inputs in a special data field (i.e. the diagnosis field) in alphabetical order on the screen. For standardization in the data file we have created a special record. In all fields all possible and allowed inputs are entered. When entering new data of a patient, the user only has to select and to transfer the data from one field into the other. This has three advantages: 1. Time is saved when entering data, because it is not necessary to encode the data in an alphanumerical code. 2. The presentation of the data on the monitor is easy understandable. 3. It is not possible to enter no standardized data.
