Spanish term

Cias

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Ophthalmology
Taken from the results of an eye test. It appears at two in the patient's history. First, in patient history:
"Cia Rx. Portador de LCVH 10h/dias (4 días sin)
AP: Sano. No alergías ni ttos. No cias."

This is then followed by the test results. I'm afraid I havent got much else!

Chema Nieto Castañón Jun 3, 2018:
Refractive surgery (Cia Rx) En el contexto dado cia/cias parece aludir inequívocamente a cirugía/cirugías (tratamiento quirúrgico).
Rx por otro lado, y a pesar del limitadísimo contexto, diría que alude a refractiva (cirugía refractiva (previa); cia Rx; refractive surgery).

Refractive surgery. [Currently using soft lenses 10 hours per day...]
Past medical history: No past illnesses or [other] surgeries, no known allergies and no current medication.


The seeming contradiction (no past surgeries / refractive surgery) is present as patient's current clinical history is probably being written by the ophtalmologists who follow the patient after refractive surgery...
David Russell (asker) Jun 1, 2018:
I think this sentence refers to medical history, so it is saying no history of surgery.
Neil Ashby Jun 1, 2018:
"cirugías" would seem to fit with "no cias", but I don't see how it fits in with "Cia Rx. Portador de LCH 10h/dias (4 días sin)"
David Russell (asker) Jun 1, 2018:
Sorry LCVH, typo on my part, it was LCH: Lentes de contacto hidrofílicas, soft contacts.
Neil Ashby May 31, 2018:
Hi David,
Is there any indication what LCVH might be? Some sort of lens perhaps?
Rx is usually X-ray (although it doesn't really fit in with ophthalmology), it could also be "resección" according to Cosnautas.
David Russell (asker) May 31, 2018:
Oh I think you are right! Stick it in as an answer.
Rachel Fell May 31, 2018:
cirugías?
