The patient had removal of this aberrant eyelash from the lower lid in the following manner:


 


The eyelash was still within the eyelid itself.  I used magnifying glasses, as well as splinter forceps and was able to localized the eyelash and remove it from the lower lid.  The size of the eyelash was about 0.5 cm in size.  In fact, it appeared to be in an aberrant location of the other eyelashes itself.  I felt that this eyelash could actually have been relocated somehow to AN ERROR POOR?  The patient tolerated the procedure well, no complications.  The patient was given Ciloxan to be

I work for MedQuist and something similar happened to me. I somehow pushed the wrong combination of keys and my autocorrect became corrupted. I called tech support and they guided me through setting my computer back to a prior date and my expansions came back. Good luck! I was so relieved as I have thousands of reports saved, as well as even more of the usual shorter expansions.

New standard states:
Subject: New standard states:

And I quote: "Numerals, or figures, stand out from the surrounding text and serve a functional purpose in medical reports, where they should be used almost exclusively as opposed to spelled-out numbers.

Exceptions: Judgment and discretion are need when deciding but adjacent numbers require one to be spelled out to avoid confusion.

Use a comma to separate adjacent unrelated numerals if neither can be readily expressed in words and the sentence cannot be readily reworded.

Use numerals for fractions.

Spell out numbers that begin a sentence.

Zero is always spelled out when it stands alone.

Spell out numbers used as pronouns.

That should get you started!
