Fundus Examination

Fundus examination is done as part of a routine physical examination. It is crucial in determining the health of the retina and the vitreous humor. The three basic steps for  conducting the fundus examination are Pupil dilation, the wide angle examination of the fundus and zoomed view of fundic lesions/abnormalities.

 

Ophthalmoscope is simulated in this activity to do fundus examination and to rule out diabetic/hypertensive retinopathy.
