Great Eye Care Beings with Regular Eye Exams
It is essential to have an annual vision screening and a comprehensive eye exam to help detect any eye problem before it progresses and worsens. The Ophthalmology Clinic at Bangkok Hospital Chiang Mai offers thorough eye examinations to evaluate all aspects of your vision and check for eye diseases using a number of different tests. The doctor will recommend a treatment plan customized to your individual needs, which could include prescription lenses or contacts, eye exercises, eye drops, and even surgery if the problem is more serious.
Vision Test
The vision test at the Ophthalmology Clinic at Bangkok Hospital Chiang Mai can indicate the presence of a vision problem. The vision test is a set of simple vision tests and assessments, including:
- Testing your vision using the “Big E” or “Snellen” chart.
- Testing for color blindness using the Ishihara Color Test.
- Visual Acuity Test: This is a test to measure the clarity and sharpness of your vision.
Eye Exam
Early diagnosis and treatment of eye and vision problems can help prevent vision loss. The exam begins with an overall health history of you and your family and a list of medications you are taking. Our comprehensive eye exams will vary depending on your age and symptoms. A wide variety of microscopes, lenses, and digital technology are used to assess the health of all the structures of the eye and the surrounding tissues. The most common tests include a:
- Eye Movement Test evaluates how well your eyes can follow a moving object, such as a pen or small light. The doctor will look for muscle weakness, poor control, or poor coordination.
- Cover Test will check how well your eyes work together.
- Glaucoma Test to measure the fluid pressure inside your eye.
- Slit Lamp Exam is a specific test your eye doctor uses to examine the structure of your eye under high magnification. This test helps detect a wide range of eye conditions and diseases including cataracts, macular degeneration, corneal ulcers, and diabetic retinopathy.
- Retinal Examination allows your doctor to evaluate the back of your eye, including the retina, optic disk, and the underlying layer of blood vessels that nourish the retina.
- Refraction Assessment for refractive error helps your doctor determine if you need a lens prescription that will give you the sharpest, most comfortable vision.
- Visual Field Test determines whether you have difficulty seeing in any areas of your peripheral field of vision.
At the end of the examination, the doctor will review the results with you and make recommendations for further testing or treatments if needed.
