VISION IMPAIRMENT

All vision loss cases are adjudicated on a case-by-case basis, and the degree of permanency is a question of fact for the Commission.

INTERNAL ORGANS: Loss of Kidney, Spleen or Lung – Min. 10 weeks

FRACTURES Skull - Min. 6 weeks

Vertebrae - Min. 6 weeks

Transverse Process - Min. 3 weeks

Facial Bones - Min. 2 weeks

Hearing Loss Calculation:

1. Add Dbs 1000 Cps + Dbs 2000 Cps + Dbs 3000 Cps = A

2. If B=0 or negative, no compensable loss

3. If B=Positive Number multiply by 1.82=C

4. If C=% of loss, from table calculate weeks of compensation

5. If C=85 or more loss is 100%
