Shanghai Eye Hospital Examination Process
Shanghai Eye Hospital has always been an important medical institution in the field of ophthalmology in China, with modern equipment and professional medical care team, providing comprehensive ophthalmic examination services for patients. The following will introduce the common examination procedures of Shanghai Eye Hospital.
Corneal topography
Corneal topography is a common method to evaluate the curvature of the anterior surface of the eyeball. The patient needs to remove the contact lens before the examination and be ready to relax the eyes. The doctor will put the dye into the eye and observe the curvature, thickness and other parameters of the eyeball with a special instrument. This examination is mainly used to evaluate corneal diseases, refractive errors and other eye problems.
Corneal topography examination usually takes 3-5 minutes. The process is painless and does not affect vision. It is a non-invasive examination method. The examination results will be interpreted by the doctor and professional advice will be given.
Optometry
Optometry is a routine method to detect vision problems, which is used to assess whether patients have myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and other refractive problems. The patient needs to put his chin on the optometer, observe the lenses of different degrees one by one, and inform him of the changes in vision. The doctor will determine the best glasses matching degree according to the patient's response.
The optometry generally lasts for 10-20 minutes, and the process is painless and non-invasive. Through optometry, doctors can customize glasses or contact lenses suitable for patients to improve the quality of vision and improve eye symptoms.
Fundus examination
Fundus examination is an important method to evaluate the internal structure and disease of the eye. The patient needs to dilate the pupil before the examination, and the doctor will use a special instrument to observe the fundus blood vessels, optic disc and other parts through a magnifying glass. Fundus examination can help doctors find eye diseases such as retinopathy, glaucoma and cataract.
Fundus examination usually takes 15-20 minutes, during which you may feel short light stimulation and blurred vision. Patients need to know the precautions of the examination in advance, and follow the doctor's instructions to cooperate with the examination to ensure accurate results.
Intraocular pressure test
Intraocular pressure test is a simple and important method to measure intraocular pressure, which is used to detect glaucoma and other eye diseases in the early stage. The doctor will drop an anesthetic eyedrop on the patient's eyes, and use a special instrument to gently touch the corneal surface to measure intraocular pressure.
The intraocular pressure test usually lasts for 1-2 minutes. The process is painless and will not affect the vision. High intraocular pressure may require further examination to determine the diagnosis of the disease, and patients can follow up treatment according to the doctor's recommendations.
The examination process of Shanghai Eye Hospital includes corneal topography examination, optometry, fundus examination and intraocular pressure examination. These examinations provide accurate diagnosis and effective treatment plan for patients through advanced equipment and professional medical staff. If you have eye problems that need to be examined, we recommend that you go to Shanghai Eye Hospital for professional examination and treatment.
