Outcome Analysis Tool for Army Refractive Surgery Program

Abstract

The primary objective of this project has been to develop a web-based outcome analysis application to work with an existing electronic medical record database in the Army's Warfighter Refractive Eye Surgery Program (WRESP). The application, web-based Refractive Surgery Information System (webRSIS), is based on a precursor client/sever version previously developed and deployed. The availability of the outcomes information will ultimately improve the safety and efficacy of excimer laser keratorefractive surgery in U.S. Army personnel by conducting a statistical analysis from the data collected in an electronic format. The patient population initially will include U.S. Army service members treated under the WRESP.
