Spanish term

DVI

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Ophthalmology
I'm unsure whether this term relates to ophthalmology or business, as it apears in a document combining the invoice/prescription for eyeglasses from Costco Mexico.

The following appears below the patient's name and address and order number and date:

Perfil: 1112865 Source: E
DVI: 44437 MOF: Y

Does anyone know what "DVI" might indicate here?

Any suggestions/guidance would be much appreciated.

Cheers, John

Looking at the number that accompanies the acronym, I agree that it is probably a company.
philgoddard Apr 13, 2020:
I think these are probably a company's internal abbreviations and we're unlikely to decipher them.

Hi Liz. I'm afraid I haven't worked that out. I've been researching it without success. I didn't want to pur 2 terms in the same query. Any suggestions welcome. Cheers, John

Hi, Have you already worked out what "MOF" stands for?

Peer comment(s):

neutral philgoddard : This is classified as mild, moderate, severe, or blind - it wouldn't be followed by a five-digit number. And why use an English acronym?

You're right. I didn't take the five digit number into account when answering. English acronyms are used quite often in latin america.

This link below is where I started, and ended up getting the last link Digital Vision, Inc. (DVI). Does this make any sense in your context, for example, DVI Number - computer assigned number?

Thanks John. Stay safe! I will put it in as an answer as opposed to a reference.
Note from asker:
Hi Taña and thanks for the information. I think this is it. When I checked companies earlier I thought the only ones I came across were manufacturers of video cables etc. Clearly I missed this. Thanks again. Cheers, John.
