Eye examination with the aid of a slit lamp. Watzke-Allen test is done by projecting a thin line of light over the macula with a slit lamp. [4] A fundus lens or macular lens is used to aim beam of light on the macula. [5] It is best performed in a dilated eye, projecting a slit beam of approximately 100 μm.
Eye examination with the aid of a slit lamp. Side view of a slit lamp machine. Cataract in human eye: magnified view seen on examination with the slit lamp. In ophthalmology and optometry, a slit lamp is an instrument consisting of a high-intensity light source that can be focused to shine a thin sheet of light into the eye.
Slit Lamp Examination The slit lamp also allows inspection of all the ocular media, from cornea to vitreous, plus magnified view of eyelids, and other external ocular related structures. Fluorescein staining of the tear film before slit lamp examination may reveal etiologies of the surface of the eye, such as corneal abrasions or keratitis due ...
In the 1990s, systems became commercially available from a number of suppliers. The first completely automatic system was the Corneal Modeling System (CMS-1) developed by Computed Anatomy, Inc. in New York City, under the direction of Martin Gersten and a group of surgeons at the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary.
In ophthalmology, gonioscopy is a routine procedure that measures the angle between the iris and the cornea (the iridocorneal angle), using a goniolens (also known as a gonioscope) together with a slit lamp or operating microscope. [1] [2] Its use is important in diagnosing and monitoring various eye conditions associated with glaucoma.
OCT Biomicroscopy is the use of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in place of slit lamp biomicroscopy to examine the transparent axial tissues of the eye. [1] Traditionally, ophthalmic biomicroscopy has been completed with a slit lamp biomicroscope that uses slit beam illumination and an optical microscope to enable stereoscopic, magnified, cross-sectional views of transparent tissues in the ...
used to search for magnified examination of the anterior segment of the eye (uniocular or binocular) Jackson's cross cylinder: used to check the power and axis of a cylindrical lens: Maddox rod: used to test for latent squint and retinal function Refraction box: has lenses of different powers for refraction testing: Slit lamp bio microscope
Slit-lamp examination. Histopathological examination that shows intraepithelial proliferation of conjunctival epithelial melanocytes. [1] Features that may encourage the ophthalmologist to biopsy the lesion include, but are not limited to: [6] Increasing size or size greater than 5mm; Involvement of conjunctiva underneath the eyelids; Nodular ...
