Eye examination and vision diagnostics in Stryi

Basic ophthalmologist examination

A basic ophthalmological examination helps assess eye health, check visual acuity, and determine whether additional diagnostic methods are needed. Regular eye examinations are important even in the absence of symptoms, as some changes may remain unnoticed for a long time.

Based on the examination results, the doctor assesses the condition of the visual system and provides recommendations regarding further monitoring, prevention, or treatment.

Preventive eye examinations are recommended for:

adults – regularly;
people over 40;
patients with diabetes mellitus;
people who spend a lot of time working at a computer;
drivers;
children.

During the consultation, the ophthalmologist performs a comprehensive assessment of the visual system:

Visual acuity assessment

Helps assess how clearly the patient can see at different distances.

Refraction Assessment

Allows the eye’s refractive power to be assessed and nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism to be detected.

Examination of the anterior segment of the eye (biomicroscopy)

Using a slit lamp, the doctor assesses the condition of the cornea, conjunctiva, iris, and lens.

Fundus examination (ophthalmoscopy)

Helps assess the condition of the retina, optic nerve, and blood vessels of the fundus, as well as detect potential pathological changes.

Measurement of intraocular pressure (tonometry)

Helps assess intraocular pressure and promptly detect changes that may be associated with glaucoma.

Assessment of symptoms and medical history

The doctor will ask about your symptoms, lifestyle, visual demands, any coexisting conditions, and previous treatment experience.

When is an eye examination needed?

Regular eye examinations in Stryi are recommended not only when symptoms occur but also as a preventive measure. Many ophthalmic conditions can develop for a long time without noticeable symptoms.

You should have your vision checked if you experience:

decreased visual acuity
blurred vision at near or far distances
Rapid eye fatigue
Headache
dryness or burning sensation in the eyes
eye redness
Increased sensitivity to light
double vision
appearance of floaters or dark spots
difficulty reading or working at a computer

Timely computerized vision diagnostics help detect changes at an early stage and determine whether further examination or treatment is needed. A professional eye examination in Stryi allows hidden vision problems to be detected promptly.

Vision diagnostic methods in Stryi

Autorefraction

Autorefractometry is a computer-based test that measures the refractive power of the eye and helps detect nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism.

Basic ophthalmologist examination

A basic examination includes an ophthalmologist consultation, assessment of uncorrected and corrected visual acuity, refraction testing, biomicroscopy, fundus examination, and intraocular pressure measurement.

Biomicroscopy

Biomicroscopy is a method of examining the structures of the anterior segment of the eye using a slit lamp. It allows the condition of the cornea, conjunctiva, iris, and lens to be assessed.

Visual Acuity Testing

Visual acuity testing is used to determine visual acuity. The patient identifies symbols or letters from different distances, allowing the quality of vision and the need for optical correction to be assessed.

Gonioscopy

Gonioscopy allows an ophthalmologist to examine the anterior chamber angle—the area between the cornea and iris through which intraocular fluid drains.

Corneal Topography

Corneal topography is a non-invasive examination that creates a detailed map of the corneal surface and helps assess its shape and curvature.

Examination before laser vision correction

Before laser vision correction, the doctor assesses the condition, thickness, and curvature of the cornea, determines refraction, and checks the retina and intraocular pressure. This helps determine whether correction can be performed and select the optimal method.

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

OCT is a modern, non-contact diagnostic method that provides cross-sectional images of the retina and optic nerve, allowing their structures to be assessed in detail.

Ophthalmometry and ultrasound (US) biometry

Biometry measures the main anatomical parameters of the eye: the length of the eyeball, the depth of the anterior chamber, lens thickness, and other indicators.

Pachymetry

Pachymetry is a non-contact measurement of corneal thickness. The test is used for comprehensive diagnostics and planning ophthalmic procedures.

Comprehensive Ophthalmological Examination

A comprehensive examination may include autorefraction, visual acuity testing, tonometry, corneal topography, pachymetry, biomicroscopy, a dilated fundus examination, OCT of the retina and optic nerve, fundus photography, an ophthalmologist consultation, and recommendations.

Static computerized perimetry

The examination assesses the visual field and the sensitivity of different areas of the retina using light stimuli. It is used to detect changes associated with glaucoma and other conditions.

Tonometry

Tonometry measures intraocular pressure. This is an important indicator for diagnosing and monitoring glaucoma and other eye conditions.

Eye Ultrasound Examination

An eye ultrasound provides images of the eye’s internal structures using ultrasound waves and helps assess their condition.

Fundus photography

A fundus camera provides detailed images of the retina, optic nerve, and blood vessels of the ocular fundus. Photography helps document changes and monitor them over time.

What conditions can be detected during an eye examination in Stryi?

Myopia (nearsightedness)

Myopia (nearsightedness)
Myopia causes impaired distance vision. A person can see nearby objects clearly, but distant objects may appear unclear or blurred. Vision testing helps determine the degree of myopia and select an appropriate method of correction.

Hyperopia (farsightedness)

Hyperopia (farsightedness)
Farsightedness may cause difficulty focusing at close distances, especially when reading or working at a computer. Eye fatigue, strain, and headaches may also occur. An examination helps determine the degree of the vision disorder and select the necessary correction.

Astigmatism

Astigmatism
Astigmatism is associated with an irregular shape of the cornea or lens, which may cause images to appear blurred or distorted at different distances. Comprehensive diagnostics help determine the type and degree of astigmatism and select the optimal correction method.

Cataract

Cataract
A cataract is the gradual clouding of the eye’s natural lens, leading to reduced visual acuity, blurred vision, and decreased contrast sensitivity. Diagnostic testing makes it possible to assess the condition of the lens and determine the next steps in treatment.

Glaucoma

Glaucoma
Glaucoma may be accompanied by increased intraocular pressure and gradual damage to the optic nerve. In its early stages, the disease often develops without pronounced symptoms, so regular eye examinations are important for detecting changes promptly.

Why an ophthalmologist consultation is important

An ophthalmologist consultation helps to correctly assess the results of vision diagnostics, identify the cause of visual impairment, and determine the next steps in treatment.

The doctor provides recommendations regarding:

treatment of eye diseases;
prevention of vision deterioration;
selection of glasses or contact lenses;
the need for additional examinations;
the frequency of follow-up examinations.

An individual approach makes it possible to consider the condition of the eyes, the patient’s symptoms, and the examination results in order to select the optimal monitoring or treatment strategy.
