Indications for consultation of an ophthalmologist:

• pain in the eyes, burning, dryness, redness, etc.;
• inflammatory process of the eye, eyelids;
• double vision, loss of visual acuity;
• loss of vision in one or both eyes;
• hypersensitivity to light;
• anisocoria (different pupil sizes);
• foreign body in the eye;
• traumatic eye injuries;
• the presence of neoplasms in the eye, eyelids, etc.;
• parasitic damage to the eye and the like.

At a consultation with an ophthalmologist, the patient first expresses their complaints and symptoms. The next step is a visual examination of the patient's eyes using an ophthalmoscope, a device that allows you to get a multiple magnified image of all structures of the eye: lens, iris, retina, etc.

In addition to visual examination, St. Paraskeva Medical Center offers hardware vision diagnostics. Thanks to the latest equipment, the ophthalmologist performs pneumotonometry (determination of intraocular pressure), determination of eye refraction and visual acuity. Also in some cases, the patient is prescribed computer perimetry of the eyes to determine the functional state of the optic nerve and retina.

After the results of the examination, the ophthalmologist, if necessary, prescribes appropriate medication or gives recommendations for the elimination of the identified symptoms. If the patient has visual acuity disorders, glasses or eye lenses are selected for correction. The patient also has a conversation about eye hygiene and prevention of visual impairment. Our specialists recommend to visit an ophthalmologist for a preventive examination once a year to avoid the development of eye diseases.
