1. Ophtalmology
Ophthalmologists treat a wide range of conditions including cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and refractive errors like nearsightedness and farsightedness.
Adults should have a comprehensive eye exam at least once every two years, or more frequently if advised by your eye doctor based on your age, health, and risk factors.
Signs include blurred vision, difficulty seeing objects up close or far away, frequent headaches, eye strain, and squinting.
An eye exam involves tests for visual acuity, assessment of eye muscle function, pupil response, and examination of the retina and optic nerve. It may include dilation to allow a better view of the back of the eye.
Regular eye exams, maintaining a healthy diet rich in antioxidants, protecting your eyes from UV rays with sunglasses, and avoiding smoking can help reduce the risk of eye diseases.
2. Ophthalmologist
A comprehensive eye exam includes tests to check vision clarity, eye muscle function, and overall eye health, helping detect issues like refractive errors, glaucoma, and cataracts early.
Adults should have an eye exam every 1-2 years, or as recommended by their eye doctor based on age, risk factors, and existing eye conditions.
Symptoms include blurry vision, glare, halos around lights, and reduced color perception, which can worsen over time.
LASIK and PRK are common surgeries to correct vision by reshaping the cornea. Other procedures include LASEK and SMILE.
Children should have their first eye exam between 6 months and 1 year of age, then at ages 3 and 5, and every 1-2 years thereafter.
3. DENGUE IGM
A positive result indicates recent or current infection with the Dengue virus.
No, additional tests, such as Dengue NS1 antigen test or PCR, may be required to identify the specific serotype.
No, the Dengue IgM test is designed to detect recent or current infections during the acute phase.
Dengue IgM antibodies are typically detectable in the bloodstream for up to 3 months after infection.
A negative result suggests no detectable Dengue IgM antibodies. If symptoms persist or there is recent exposure, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
