Why is it so important to undergo a comprehensive high-tech vision diagnostics?

Comprehensive vision diagnostics is a necessary condition for maintaining visual acuity for many years. The VISION ophthalmology clinic uses innovative diagnostic equipment to detect eye diseases at the earliest stage, and the qualifications of doctors ensure an accurate diagnosis. The experience of our specialists and advanced examination methods guarantee the selection of effective treatment methods. We have been working for more than 11 years so that you can enjoy the bright colors of the world.

Why is early vision diagnostics using innovative equipment necessary?

According to statistics, up to 65% of eye diseases proceed without symptoms for a long time, imperceptible to the patient. Therefore, it is important to regularly examine the entire visual apparatus: check visual acuity, the condition of the tissues of the eyeball, and the operation of the visual analyzer. The VISION clinic has technological capabilities for diagnosing all parts of the eye, including at the cellular level. This allows you to prescribe the necessary treatment in a timely manner and stop the processes leading to loss or deterioration of vision.

We take care of patients by selecting optimal diagnostic and treatment methods

Examination at the VISION clinic is suitable for patients of any age. Thus, the initial manifestations of retinal dystrophy can occur as early as 18-30 years of age. An optical tomograph allows you to obtain a 3D image of the structure of the retina and see the slightest changes in it. After 30 years, the prerequisites for retinal detachment, glaucoma, and the first stages of neoplasms are identified. And after 50 years, you can discover cataracts or macular degeneration - diseases that lead to complete blindness. Diagnosis always includes a consultation with an ophthalmologist, who will select the optimal treatment regimen or recommend vision correction surgery. Surgical treatment can also be performed by experienced ophthalmic surgeons at our clinic.

Protocol for ophthalmological examination of patients at the VISION ophthalmological center

1. identifying complaints, collecting anamnesis.

2. Visual exploration anterior segment of the eyes, for diagnosing diseases of the eyelids, pathology of the lacrimal organs and oculomotor system.

3.Refractometry and keratometry- study of the total refractive power of the eye and cornea separately in order to identify myopia, farsightedness and astigmatism with a narrow pupil and in conditions of cycloplegia.

4. Measuring intraocular pressure using a non-contact tonometer.

5. Determination of visual acuity with and without correction, using a sign projector and a set of trial lenses.

6. Character Definition vision (binocularity)- test for hidden strabismus.

7. Keratotopography- study of the cornea relief using automatic computer keratotopograph in order to determine congenital, dystrophic and other changes in the shape of the cornea (astigmatism, keratoconus, etc.).

8. Selection of glasses taking into account the nature of visual work.

9. Biomicroscopy- examination of the structures of the eye (conjunctiva, cornea, anterior chamber, iris, lens, vitreous body, fundus) using a slit lamp - biomicroscope.

10. Gonioscopy- examination of the structures of the anterior chamber of the eye using a special lens and biomicroscope.

11. Schirmer test- determination of tear production.

12. Computer perimetry- study of peripheral and central visual fields using automatic projection perimeter (diagnosis of retinal and optic nerve diseases, glaucoma).

13. Ultrasound of the eye for studying internal structures, measuring the size of the eye. This study allows us to detect the presence of foreign bodies, retinal detachment, and eye tumors in opaque internal environments.

Most often, the retina of the eye is subject to inflammatory or dystrophic pathological processes. Diseases of this part of the eyeball can be hereditary, but they are often associated with the influence of external factors, that is, they are acquired. Typically, damage to the retina occurs as a result of a traumatic effect on the eye itself or its surroundings. The presence of concomitant systemic pathology (cardiovascular, endocrine) can have a significant impact on the condition of the eye itself. Sometimes the retina is damaged as a result of tumor growth or other neoplasms.

To diagnose pathologies directly affecting the retina, it is necessary to conduct a complex of examinations and a thorough examination.

Basic principles of diagnosis for retinal pathology

The patient should be examined for visual acuity. In this case, the doctor determines the preservation of the function of the central areas, which may be affected by retinal pathology.
It is necessary to measure the level of intraocular pressure.
All patients undergo determination of the boundaries of the visual field. For this purpose, computer perimetry is often used. This test helps diagnose peripheral retinal lesions.
An electrophysiological examination of the patient helps to establish the integrity of the function of the optic nerve, determine the viability of retinal cells and the neurons themselves.
During direct or indirect ophthalmoscopy, the doctor examines the features of the fundus of the eye; based on the examination, it is possible to determine the areas of retinal rupture, as well as their number and tendency to detachment. In addition, it is possible to determine the connection of the area of detachment with the substance of the vitreous body, to identify the fate of thinning, since they require special attention during surgical treatment of the eyes.

Diagnostic methods for retinal diseases

Patients with suspected retinal pathology undergo the following studies:

Determination of the patient's visual acuity.
The study of contrast sensitivity, which allows us to judge with high accuracy the condition of the central macular zone.
Study of color perception and color thresholds.
Ophthalmoscopy.
Perimetry, the purpose of which is to determine the boundaries of the field of view.
Electrophysiological examination techniques.
Fluorescein angiography, which allows you to thoroughly study the pathology of the vascular system of the eye.
Optical coherence tomography is aimed at qualitatively determining retinal pathology, as well as the severity of the process.
Fundus photography is carried out to record pathological changes that can be assessed over time.

Cost of retinal diagnostics

Initial consultation with a retina specialist (laser surgeon) - 3 000 rub.
Repeated consultation with a retina specialist (laser surgeon) - 1 000 rub.
Fundus examination with a narrow pupil - 1 000 rub.
Examination of the fundus with a wide pupil - 1 200 rub.
Amsler test (for macular degeneration) - 500 rub.
Electrophysiological study of the retina and optic nerve (EFS) - 500 rub.
Ultrasound of the eyeball - 1 500 rub.
Optical coherence tomography of the retina - 2 000 rub.

To maintain high visual acuity, each of us needs to undergo regular ophthalmological examinations. An annual comprehensive eye examination should become the norm, even if nothing is bothering you yet. After all, a disease identified at an early stage will be easier and cheaper to cure without resorting to emergency or radical measures.

Modern high-tech equipment and highly qualified specialists of the Virtual Eye Clinic allow us to identify possible eye pathologies at the initial stages of the onset of the disease. In our Clinic, adults and children (over 3 years old) are offered to undergo diagnostics of the visual organ to identify:

pathologies ( , ),
pathologies of the oculomotor system (,),
changes in the anterior segment of the eye of various nature (diseases, conjunctiva,),
changes in the posterior segment of the eye in vascular or inflammatory diseases, as well as in the optic nerve (including conditions in hypertension, diabetes mellitus),
injuries to the organ of vision.

When is vision diagnostics necessary?

Diagnostic examination data is necessary in assessing the general state of eye function, as a control of disease progression and in the prevention of eye diseases. Timely diagnosis will help to select optimal treatment regimens that prevent serious complications that can lead to vision loss. The examination is also mandatory in cases where a decision has to be made on the need and type of surgical intervention or to provide an opinion at the place of request (to the antenatal clinic, neurologist, cardiologist, etc.)

Ophthalmological examination procedure

The diagnostic procedure can take from 30 minutes. up to 1.5 hours, which depends on the nature of the complaints and the age of the patient, as well as on the objective indications that served as the basis for the examination. During the diagnosis, visual acuity, changes in refraction are determined, and intraocular pressure is measured. The specialist examines the eyes using a biomicroscope, examining (the zones of the optic nerve and retina) with narrow and dilated vision. Sometimes the level is determined or visual fields are examined in detail (according to indications). Additionally, the thickness of the cornea () or the length of the anteroposterior axis of the eye (echobiometry, PZO) can be measured. Hardware studies also include ultrasound diagnostics (B-scan) of the eyes and computer keratotopography. However, other types of studies can be carried out if indicated.

The capital's ophthalmological clinics have all the equipment necessary for high-quality vision diagnostics.
At the end of the examination, the ophthalmologist must explain the diagnostic results to the patient. As a rule, after this an individual treatment regimen is prescribed or several possible regimens are offered to choose from, and preventive recommendations are given.

Cost of vision diagnostics in Moscow

The final cost of the examination is the amount consisting of the volume of prescribed diagnostic procedures, which is due to the patient’s objective complaints, a pre-established diagnosis, or an upcoming planned operation.

The price of standard primary eye diagnostics, including studies such as determination of visual acuity, measurement of intraocular pressure, autorefractometry and examination of the fundus with a narrow pupil, starts from 2,500 rubles. and depends on the level of the clinic, the qualifications of the doctor and the equipment used.

By visiting a specialized eye clinic for vision diagnostics, the patient receives the following advantages (compared to seeing an ophthalmologist in a clinic or having an examination at an optical office):

each visitor can use any necessary equipment located on the premises of the clinic;
highly accurate, detailed diagnostics of the organ of vision, including examination of the fundus, will not take more than 1-2 hours;
an extract with the diagnostic results will be handed to the patient, along with detailed recommendations for treatment, as well as prevention of the existing disease;
if necessary, the patient will be referred for consultation to an ophthalmologist who specializes in the identified pathology.

Remember that timely diagnosis is half the success of treatment for any disease. Don’t skimp on your vision, because losing it is much easier than regaining it!

Additionally, the following diagnostic studies can be performed:

determination of the angle of strabismus
ophthalmometry
tonography
(including computer)
pachymetry
echobiometry
determination of CFC (Critical flicker fusion frequency)
study of visual acuity in conditions of cycloplegia

Surprisingly, a huge arsenal of examinations and diagnostic procedures is aimed at such a small organ of vision: from simple alphabetic tables to obtaining a layer-by-layer image of the retina and optic nerve head using OCT and a detailed study of the course of blood vessels in the fundus during FA.

Most studies are carried out according to strict indications. However, when going to see an ophthalmologist, be prepared to spend from half an hour to an hour or more, depending on the number and complexity of the tests you need and the workload of your doctor.

Determination of visual acuity and refraction

Visual acuity is determined for each eye separately. In this case, one of them is covered with a shield or palm. At a distance of 5 meters you will be shown letters, numbers or signs of various sizes that you will be asked to name. Visual acuity is characterized by the smallest signs that the eye can distinguish.

Next, you will be given a frame in which the doctor will put different lenses, asking you to choose which one allows you to see more clearly. Or they will install in front of you a device called a phoropter, in which lenses are changed automatically. Refraction is characterized by the power of the lens, which provides the highest visual acuity for that eye, and is expressed in diopters. Positive lenses are required for farsightedness, negative lenses for myopia, and cylindrical lenses for astigmatism.

Automatic refractometry and aberrometry

Based on the analysis of the wavefront of the eye, the aberrometer determines even imperceptible optical imperfections of its media. These data are important when planning LASIK.

Visual field examination

It is carried out using a device - a perimeter, which is a hemispherical screen. You are asked to fixate the mark with your eye and, as soon as you notice with your peripheral vision the luminous dots appearing in different parts of the screen, press the signal button or say “yes”, “I see”. The visual field is characterized by the space in which the eye, with a constantly fixed gaze, detects visual stimuli. Characteristic visual field defects occur due to eye diseases, such as glaucoma, as well as when the optic nerve and brain are damaged by a tumor or as a result of a stroke.

Measuring intraocular pressure

Non-contact measurement is carried out using an automatic tonometer. You are asked to place your chin on the stand of the device and fix your gaze on the luminous mark. The autotonometer releases a stream of air in the direction of your eye. Based on the cornea's resistance to air flow, the device determines the level of intraocular pressure. The technique is absolutely painless, the device does not come into contact with your eyes.

The contact method for measuring intraocular pressure is accepted as standard in Russia. After instilling the “freezing” drops, the doctor touches your cornea with a weight with a colored area. The level of intraocular pressure is determined on paper by the diameter of the imprint of the unpainted area. This technique is also painless.

Since glaucoma is a disease associated with increased intraocular pressure, regular measurement of it is a necessary condition for maintaining the health of your eyes.

Cover test

There are many methods for diagnosing strabismus. The simplest of them is the “cover” test. The doctor asks you to fix your gaze on an object in the distance and, alternately covering one of your eyes with your palm, watches the other to see if there is an orientation movement. If it occurs inwardly, divergent strabismus is diagnosed, if outwardly, convergent strabismus is diagnosed.

Biomicroscopy of the eye

A slit lamp or biomicroscope allows you to examine the structures of the eye under high magnification. You are asked to place your chin on the stand of the device. The doctor illuminates your eye with the light of a slit lamp and, under high magnification, first examines the anterior part of the eye (eyelids, conjunctiva, cornea, iris, lens), and then, using a strong lens, examines the fundus of the eye (retina, optic nerve head and blood vessels). Biomicroscopy allows you to diagnose almost the entire range of eye diseases.

Retinal examination

Using an ophthalmoscope, the doctor directs a beam of light into your eye and examines the retina, optic nerve head and blood vessels through the pupil.

Often, for a more complete view, you are first instilled with drops that dilate the pupil. The effect develops after 15-30 minutes. While they last, sometimes for several hours, you may experience difficulty focusing on nearby objects. In addition, the eye's sensitivity to light increases; it is recommended to wear sunglasses on the way home after the examination.
