Article R4342-1-2 of the French Public Health Code

The organisational protocol enables an orthoptist to participate in the care of patients followed by an ophthalmologist who has signed this protocol.

It may concern:

1° preparation by the orthoptist for the medical examination by the ophthalmologist;

2° follow-up by the orthoptist of a patient whose visual pathology has already been diagnosed, without an ophthalmological examination being carried out on the same day, in order to check that the patient’s condition remains stabilised.

The patient will be informed of his care as part of an organisational protocol.
