| description | The description of an ophthalmic anatomical site that is located within the following structures: the eyeball or the periocular or orbital regions (as opposed to non-ocular anatomical locations). This profile is used by combining the unique valueset (hyperlink) for relevant ophthalmic specific BodyStructure.locationQualifier (Body Site modifier) in combination with the base Observation BodyStructure.location (Body Site; descendants from SNOMED 371398005 (Eye Region Structure), each with a preferred binding in order to refine the accuracy of the location decription of occular structures. This unique qualifying element is important because these locations are routinely described either diffently and/or more granularly than other body parts. Of note - non occular (or surrounding) anatomical location references of Observations (eg - arm) do not need to use this modified specialty profile. |
