GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

English translation:Agujero estenopeico (pinhole occluder)

Medical - Medical (general) / Ophthalmology
Spanish term or phrase: ae
Found on an ophthalmology report from Spain:

AVcc:
OD 1.0d
OI 0.9d ae nm


I understand the "AVcc" to be "Corrected visual acuity" and "nm" to be "no mejora", but I don't know about the "ae".

Thanks!

Agujero estenopeico, no mejora (pinhole occluder, no improvement)
Explanation:
“Ae” stands for “agujero estenopeico”, “nm”, yes you are right, means what you said. And “AVcc” is also right (“agudeza visual con corrercción, corrected visual acuity).

I found this reference to confirm your translations and my suggestion:

Podemos ayudarnos del agujero estenopeico para identificar el tipo de ambliopía. Si es refractiva (la imagen de ambos ojos cae en fóvea), sin lente mejora. Si es estrábica, con agujero estenopeico no mejora, ya que la imagen de uno de los ojos no cae en fóvea, cae fuera de ella, por lo que no hay aumento de AV.
