Advance care delivery and patient outcomes with
the IRIS® Registry
The nation’s first
comprehensive eye disease
clinical registry
patient data and performs statistical
analyses on your practice — helping you
make fact-based decisions for improvement.
The Academy continues to grow the IRIS®
Registry (Intelligent Research In Sight) — more than 9,000 physicians are now
participating in this groundbreaking initiative.
As a certified EHR technology, the IRIS
Registry automatically extracts data for
clinical quality measures, which also
qualifies for PQRS reporting, and submits
it to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services (CMS) on the ophthalmologist’s
behalf.
Use the IRIS Registry to examine your
practice’s procedures, monitor your
performance and benchmark it against
peers, and meet requirements and
streamline reporting for the Physician
Quality Reporting System (PQRS).
Improve performance and
outcomes in ophthalmology
Continuous measuring and reporting helps
ensure that you deliver effective, consistent,
high-quality care. Using electronic health
records (EHRs), the IRIS Registry collects

With the IRIS Registry you can:
• Improve patient care. Monitor patient
interactions, track interventions, identify
gaps in quality of care and measure
outcomes.
• Benchmark physician and practice
performance. Run reports that provide
clinician- and practice-level results, plus
national results and patient-level detail
for PQRS measures.
• Participate in quality reporting and
incentive programs. Directly submit
EHR data for the CMS PQRS program to
avoid the PQRS penalty. Satisfy a menu

Confused? Don’t sweat it—
we’re here to help you.
QCDR Reporting
The IRIS Registry can help you report
on quality measures in accordance with
the latest regulations. The Academy has
updated the IRIS Registry in accordance with
the most current regulations and submitted
the data required to meet new criteria in
2015, with no extra work on your part.
• Report nine measures from the PQRS
measures list. (If fewer than nine
measures apply, report IRIS Registry
QCDR measures too).
• Successfully map your EHR system to
the IRIS Registry by Aug. 1, 2016.
• Include measures from three quality
domains and at least two outcomes
measures.
• Submit your EHR data release consent
form to send your information to CMS by
Sept. 1, 2016.
How to Participate in the IRIS
Registry in 2015
If you have an EHR system, the easiest
PQRS options are the automated extraction
reporting mechanism for the IRIS Registry.
However, the deadlines for EHR-based
reporting have passed for 2015. (But if you
sign up for 2016 participation now, you’ll be
ahead of schedule for next year.)
You still have a little time left to report PQRS
manually (no EHR required) via the IRIS
Registry Web portal. There are two options:
Qualified Registry reporting or Qualified
Clinical Data Registry reporting. Use of
the Web portal is free for U.S. Academy
members and their staff.
Qualified Registry Reporting
• Deadline to sign up is Oct. 31, 2015.
• Report nine measures from the PQRS
measures list. (If you report fewer than
nine measures, you may be subject to
a Measurable Applicability Validation
review.)
• Include measures from three quality
domains and at least one cross-cutting
measure.
• Report each measure for at least 50% of
the Medicare patients who you see this
calendar year for whom the measure
applies.
• Deadline to sign up is Oct. 31, 2015.
• Report each measure for at least 50%
of all patients (including non-Medicare
patients) you see this calendar year for
whom the measure applies.
To sign up for the Web portal, go to www.
aao.org/irisregistry and select “Sign up”
and then “IRIS Registry Application.”
Timeline for EHR system-based
participation
• Submit your signed agreements by
June 1, 2016.
There are also options for participating
in the IRIS Registry in 2016 if you do not
have an EHR system. Data may be entered
manually via the Web portal. For more
information about manual entry options, visit
www.aao.org/irisregistry.
For more information about PQRS measures
and EHR systems, visit www.aao.org/pqrs.

Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
What is age-related macular
degeneration?
Age-Related Macular Degeneration
(AMD) is a problem with your retina. It
happens when a part of the retina called
the macula is damaged. With AMD you
lose your central vision. You cannot see
fine details, whether you are looking at
something close or far. But your
peripheral (side) vision will still be
normal. For instance, imagine you are
looking at a clock with hands. With
AMD, you might see the clock’s
numbers but not the hands.
Eye Words to Know
Retina: Layer of nerve cells lining the
back wall inside the eye. This layer
senses light and sends signals to the
brain so you can see.
Drusen: Tiny white or yellow
particles that form under the retina.
They seldom cause vision loss. But
many (or very large) drusen can be a
sign of AMD.
Cornea
Lens Retina
Pupil
Glaucoma is a disease that damages your eye’s
optic nerve. It usually happens when fluid builds
up in the front part of your eye. That extra fluid
increases the pressure in your eye, damaging the
optic nerve.
Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness for
people over 60 years old. But blindness from
glaucoma can often be prevented with early
treatment.
With AMD, dark areas can appear in
your central vision.

Glaucoma
Macula
What is glaucoma?
AMD is very common. It is a leading
cause of vision loss in people 50 years
or older.
Features:
Macula: Small but important area in
the center of the retina. You need
the macula to clearly see details of
objects in front of you.
nerve
OpticOptic
nerve:
A nerve at the back of your eye
that connects to your brain. The optic nerve
sends light signals to your brain so you can see.
Aqueous humor (“aqueous”): Clear liquid
1 of 5
inside the front part of our eyes. It nourishes
the eye and keeps it inflated. (Aqueous
is different from tears, which are outside
the eye.)
Drainage angle: The area of the eye where
the aqueous humor drains from the front of
the eye.
Iris: The colored part of your eye. It controls
the size of your pupil to let light into your eye.

English and Spanish.

View samples and see all topics at www.aao.org/patienthandouts.
In a healthy eye, excess fluid leaves the eye
through the drainage angle, keeping pressure
stable.
What causes glaucoma?
Your eye constantly makes aqueous humor. As
new aqueous flows into your eye, the same
amount should drain out. The fluid drains out
through an area called the drainage angle. This
process keeps pressure in the eye (called
intraocular pressure or IOP) stable. But if the
drainage angle is not working properly, fluid
builds up. Pressure inside the eye rises, damaging
the optic nerve.

The optic nerve is made of more than a million
tiny nerve fibers. It is like an electric cable made
up of many small wires. As these nerve fibers die,
you will develop blind spots in your vision. You
may not notice these blind spots until most of

ICD-10, the biggest change to medical
coding in 30 years, is here. Are you ready?
Transition to ICD-10 successfully
The implementation of ICD-10-CM is the biggest
change to coding in more than 30 years. Failure
to convert to ICD-10 could jeopardize almost all of
your practice’s payments, as CMS will deny all
ICD-9 claims.

we have developed a number of books, online tools
and courses to guide you through the transition.
Whether you are a beginner or a more experienced
coder, we have the resources to improve your
coding competency and confidence.

interactions — from your colleagues. Start a discussion and add
videos and photos to enrich the conversation.
• Teach: Share clinical pearls, post pictures and embed videos.
• Connect: Build new relationships with colleagues from within your
subspecialty, or reconnect and stay in touch with old friends. Start
conversations in a subspecialty forum to focus the audience or in
the General forum to broaden the reach of your post.
• Learn: See what your colleagues think about particular EHR
systems, or post reviews of your own.
• Compare: The EHR reviews in the Academy Forum provide
trustworthy information to help you make the right choice. Read
colleagues’ reviews to help you decide. Once you’ve gotten to
know your system, come back and post your own review. Want
more information? Check out the EHRs in Ophthalmology forum
for more detailed discussions. EHR reviews and discussions are
also open to AAOE members to get the practice administrator
point of view on these critical systems.
