AI Medical Scribe for

Retinal Surgeons

Injection clinics move fast — a full schedule of OCTs, dilated exams, and anti-VEGF decisions, each needing its own note. Medical Scribe drafts the retina note from the visit itself, from visual acuity to the treat-and-extend plan.

Sample note

What your notes will look like

A real example of the documentation Medical Scribe generates for retinal surgeons — ready before your patient leaves the room.

Anti-VEGF Follow-up Ready to copy

Subjective

74F with neovascular AMD OD, presenting for scheduled anti-VEGF follow-up — injection #6 of aflibercept. Denies new floaters, flashes, or curtain-type field loss. Vision 'about the same' since last visit. No pain or redness after prior injection.

Objective

  • VA (corrected): OD 20/60, OS 20/30
  • IOP by applanation: 14 mmHg OD, 15 mmHg OS
  • Anterior segment: quiet OU, no cell or flare; posterior chamber IOLs in good position
  • Dilated fundus OD: stable pigment epithelial detachment, no new hemorrhage; OS: intermediate drusen, no CNV
  • OCT OD: CST 288 microns (down from 316); trace persistent subretinal fluid

Assessment

Neovascular AMD OD — anatomic improvement on aflibercept with reduced central subfield thickness; trace subretinal fluid persists. Nonexudative AMD OS, stable.

Plan

  • Aflibercept 2 mg intravitreal injection OD performed today after verbal consent; tolerated well, hand motion vision confirmed post-injection
  • Extend interval to 6 weeks per treat-and-extend protocol
  • Continue AREDS2 supplement; daily Amsler grid monitoring OU
  • Return precautions reviewed: new floaters, flashes, pain, or vision loss — call same day

Illustrative example. Every note is fully editable, and you control the format — SOAP, DAP, or your own custom template.

Retina documentation is dense, bilateral, and relentless

High-volume injection days

Treat-and-extend schedules bring the same patients back every 4-12 weeks, and each visit still needs a complete note — VA, IOP, exam, OCT interpretation, and the injection record.

Two eyes, twice the findings

Every exam element is documented per eye — OD and OS acuities, pressures, anterior and posterior segment findings — and a laterality error in the chart is more than a typo.

Procedures demand defensible records

Intravitreal injections and surgical planning carry real medicolegal weight. The consent discussion, the drug and dose, and the return precautions all need to be in writing, every time.

From injection clinic to surgical consult

Medical Scribe fits the two speeds of a retina practice: rapid-fire anti-VEGF follow-ups and long surgical consults for detachments, membranes, and macular holes. It records the visit — in the lane or over telehealth — and drafts a complete note you review and sign, so the chart keeps pace with the schedule.

Structured the way a retina note reads

The Retinal Surgeon’s note template — one of 280+ built-in specialty templates — organizes the visit into Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan, with the Objective section built for visual acuity, intraocular pressure, anterior and posterior segment findings, and OCT or angiography results. Dictated exam findings land exactly where a retina chart expects them.

Accuracy where laterality matters

In retina, the difference between OD and OS is the difference between a correct chart and an incident report. Medical Scribe documents only what was said and observed in the encounter — no inferred findings, no autofilled fellow eye — and every note passes through your review before it becomes part of the record.

Frequently asked questions

Does it keep OD and OS findings straight?

The note records the laterality you state during the exam — dictate 'CST 288 OD' and that's what appears, filed under Objective. It never infers or invents findings for the fellow eye, and you verify every line before signing.

Can it document the injection itself, including consent?

Yes. The consent discussion, drug and dose, the eye injected, and post-injection checks are captured in the Plan section as they're spoken in the room — giving you a procedure record grounded in what was actually said.

Is it practical on a 40-patient injection day?

Each encounter is recorded and drafted independently, so a 7-minute follow-up produces a concise note ready for review between patients. Runs on iOS, Android, Web, Apple Watch, and Mac, for clinic and telehealth visits alike.

How is patient data protected?

Medical Scribe is HIPAA compliant with encryption in transit and at rest. Recordings are processed securely, and nothing enters the chart until you've reviewed and signed the note.
