FLUOGRAPHY= RETINA EXAMINATION WITH INJECTION

A FUNDUS CAMERA CAN MAKE PICTURES OF THE INTERIOR SIDE OF THE EYE
ON THE INTERIOR PART OF THE EYE YOU CAN SEE THE RETINA AND THE EYE NERVE
THE RESULT: YOU CAN SEE THE YELLOW SPOT OF THE OPTIC NERVE AND THE BIG BLOODVESSELS - THE CENTER OF THE RETINA, WHERE THERE ARE NO VESSELS, IS CALLED THE MACULA
A COLORING AGENT WILL BE INJECTED IN A VEIN OF THE ARM
WITHIN 8 SEC THE COLORING AGENT WILL REACH THE BLOODVESSELS OF THE RETINA
YOU CAN SEE THE PICTURES IMMEDIATELY ON THE SCREEN
NORMAL IMAGE AFTER INJECTION OF COLORING AGENT
ON THE LEFT SIDE YOU CAN SEE BLACK AREAS TO WHERE THE COLORING AGENT HASN'T REACHED - AT THE BORDER YOU CAN SEE THE COLORING AGENT LEAKING OUT. THESE ARE DAMAGED AREAS IN THE RETINA

FLUORESCENCE IMAGES

WHY PHOTOS?

On the basis of the injected dye, can obtain a better insight into the condition of the blood vessels inside your eye, the retina thv (such as leakage, striking lack of blood vessels, growth of new blood vessels in the retina or above). That state of the blood vessels can learn something about the possible disease of the eye and also allows the evolution of photographic capture.

HOW DOES THE RESEARCH?

The survey takes about 1 / 2 hours: Before you may eat normally. You do not have to be sober! In the waiting room to advance the pupils of your eyes dropped. In the photo chamber fluorescein in a vein of the injected arm (as in blood, it is not injected into the eye itself!). Fluorescein is a yellow liquid which is the only side effect that sometimes induces nausea which are quickly disappearing. While shooting you may be a bit inconvenienced by the bright flash of light. The eye adapts quickly to these light intensity and is certainly not damaged. After photographing some time you will see less of the flash glare and dilated pupils. Will you not only be, but let guide so you do not own a car to drive. After examining your skin will also be discolored yellow, and this for one day. Dye which will leave the body through urine, thus a yellowish color.
