They are doing tests and I don't know what they are doing to me: \ "& GT;
Yesterday I had an oculista, they put me in a room, the typical of the letters, from large to small. They made me put my face in a machine with my chin and front, a green point came out (LED) and put it down, up, right and left, and I was taking pictures, the flash left me half a blind. Then he put me in another machine, which threw air in my eyes, first in one and then in another, air to pressure as if it were a compressed air caravin. After this test again to the anterior machine and again take pictures again and leave me half blind, I saw a very large white point in front of me when the girl who was already told me, he told him and told me that it would last me to do soA few minutes that was for the flash, I already imagined it.
What is the test of the bottom of the eye ???? If it is this test, I thought they put liquid and dilated me, I did not go with a car or motorcycle because of the same thing because I was crowded if I did not see later.
The girl told me, that more or less if there was any anomaly they would call me before 15 days, and if there is no anomaly that they would not even call me, that the photos and the result can be seen by my header doctor.
When I have done the eye background, the first thing has been to put a few drops to delay the pupil, and then an exam by the oculist reviewing the interior, what you tell sounds rather to a general recision ...
I don't know, the truth is that Wednesday asked a my client who is diabetic and told me that they put a few drops to delay the pupils and then you throw a good time that you see everything blurred and I expected that. But of course I have found what I have stated, some radiographs of the eye. Ahhh, on the computer screen I saw all the eye of the eye: D
The first thing they have done to you is the background, which according to the specialist that touches you and the machine you use can be delayed or not.
The second thing they have done to you is to measure the ocular pressure (tonometry), the response to the gust of air is how the pressure of the eye indirectly measures.It is the least annoying technique because the other method has to put anesthetic in the eye and is a more invasive (although painless) test.
You have to always ask what they do to you.Before and after the test. That is why informed consent to patients are usually signed. And because it is our health .... that the tests are for us and not for doctors.
Well, they made me a "background" made a 3 -month -old thing and they did not delay pupil with drops or anything, all "hair" with the lantern of ophthalmologist (I think that it was not even disturbed more than necessary) and IHe said that microaneurisms were seen with the naked eye. Then ask how and told me that I already put it in the report to the Primary Care doctor (written to Boli in 1 minute 2 lines), and for home. This is at the University Hospital of Salamanca.
Indeed, as Owash has said, they have done the background test but with a non -midriatic retinograpFamous drops that then leave you with a headache due to excess light that enters you in later hours.
AJD, if there are microaneurisms, may effectively look at the naked eye without expansion.But the import is that they are monitored and controlled.And in the next visits compare them in intensity and number.They may be stable (I have been with two for a few years, the oculist does not give importance, they are minimal and do not move the least), or they may evolve (better, disappearing) or worse, with exudates (there would bethan to give laser to close them).
Gondurulo, I already imagine that at the moment the aneurys will not matter but that two years ago they already told me in the social security that I had them and in an ophthalmologist of payment that I had nothing, so I did not give me a hair ..
A question, if the pupil does not delay you, I don't look as good as it is dilated, right?I also wanted to send the head doctor to take the picture of that and I said that I preferred to wait for a background to be full ... This is how to miss work every 2 by 3 poe
Last week I went for the bottom of the eye as all years. I spent 30 minutes waiting with the nurse who came every 15 MINS to apply the drops and see how the dilation advanced 2 times applied drops, and then I looked at me with a flashlight and said I pass it to you. The process equal to the one mentioned by Maikel_32 but with the difference that no air in the eyes.

I am like your more or less with several aneurysms 2 micro infarctions in the right eye. But the result comes out that the spills in the macula have disappeared and the lipid exudation has not had progress. In the end of moderate background retinopathy with mild maculopathy. The ophthalmologist has told me that I am better that I do not worry and that I continue to maintain glycosity in 6 as much as possible.
In the last one I did not delay my eye, I think it is because they have taken a new machine that looks at you the same but without the dilatar, they are more looked at it in 5 minutes and for home, if you have something weird youThey send another review more thoroughly, if everything is fine then party.
Well, the last one was either delayed either.I asked them and they told me that in the young people it is not necessary to delay, that they look good .... but ... if they have been doing it since I was 11 years old with dilation as not now?I am waiting for the appointment for this year's review, to see how they do.Although it sounds more to cuts than something else.
I go once a year, and lately it is always the same procedure: first they make me go to a room and do the tests that Maikel says (machine supported in machine, looking at a green point or a house from afar that moves, then anotherMachine to support the chin where they throw air in the eye, then look at the letters on the wall, with one eye and then with another, putting the glasses that I usually wear) and finally put the drops and send me to the roomWaiting, they pass after a few minutes and if I do not dilate enough they put me again, and but after about 10 min they make me go to the dr who looks at me with the flashlight (which would be put by ... uffIt is what bothers me the most with how sensitive I have dilated eyes and the aunt saying that I do not close your eyes while it shines directly, as if it were easy>: p) and right there it already gives me the result, that everything is fine and evennext year.(for the moment)
