As likely as not

[Holllie Greene]

Hi,

I hope all is ok.

I saw in the myhealthevet treatment notes last night the words "as likely as not" in regard to my cataracts (I have since had surgery to have new lens inserted) being a result of prednisone use due to multiple sclerosis (MS) exacerbations.  Yes, many, many rounds of Prednisone use for MS.  No BBE yet.  My question is this: are the new lens in each eye considered prostheses?  My husband thinks it is too far-fetched of an idea to which I say: you never know.

Happy Saturday everyone.

If your Optomitrist has this documented (that the medications you take for MS caused your cataracts), this should suffice as a nexus as long as the optomitrist gives reasons why he so stated AND indicates that he reviewed your medical records.
