Indirect ophthalmoscopy is a detailed examination technique that allows the doctor to view a wide area of the retina, including its far periphery, essential for detecting retinal tears, detachment and other conditions.
After your pupils are dilated with eye drops, the doctor uses a headset with a bright light and a handheld lens to examine the retina from different angles. The examination is safe and painless, though your vision may remain blurred and light-sensitive for a few hours afterward due to the dilation.
Dr. Birendra Jha at Niramay Indore India Eye Care performs thorough indirect ophthalmoscopy to detect retinal problems early, even in the furthest areas of the retina.
