Ophthalmoscopy: eye fundus examination in Tbilisi

In addition to other ophthalmological services, you can undergo an eye fundus examination at SILK Medical Clinic using ophthalmoscopy.

Ophthalmoscopy allows an ophthalmologist to assess the condition of the eye fundus, including the retina, optic nerve and vascular system. This helps detect various eye diseases such as diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, macular degeneration and many others.

How does an ophthalmoscopy take place?

An ophthalmoscopy procedure usually lasts only a few minutes and requires no special preparation. The doctor uses a device called an ophthalmoscope to examine the patient’s eye fundus. This device emits a bright light and allows the doctor to see details of the eye fundus such as blood vessels, fibre optic nerves and other structures.

Who needs an ophthalmoscopy?

• Patients who wish to detect early signs of various diseases and manage them in their early stages.
• Patients with already established diagnoses, such as diabetic retinopathy or glaucoma, monitor the condition of the eye and the effectiveness of treatment.
• Patients with risk factors such as family history or diabetes.
