Introduction to the instrument of department of ophthalmology

Argon laser （ The diabetic retinal pathological change control ）

Principle ： Utilize visible laser light to apply specific heat energy on retina, pigment epithelial layer and choroid.

1. Suitable for the retinal pathological change ： Diabetic retinal pathological changes, retinal hole, macula pathological changes…etc.

2. Suitable for coagulating laser treatment ： Remove stitches after the cataract surgery, prepare for iris laser procedures.

YAG laser （ Glaucoma and after cataract treatment ）

Principle ： Utilize the high-energy pulse laser to offer quantitatively disruptive energy power.

1. Laser treatment for angle closure glaucoma.

2. After-cataract treatment.

The automatic visual field test

Principle ： To measure visible threshold of the eye quantitatively by a light spot of various intensities, various part of the field and is then compared with normal values.

1. To detect central and peripheral visual defects.

2. Suitable for detecting glaucoma, optic neuropathy and optic pathway disorders of visual system in brain.

Fluorescein angiography test

Principle ： Utilize the intravenous fluorescein to detect the retinopathy.

1. To inspect retinal pathological changes.

2. Suitable for diabetic retinal pathological change, retina blood vessel embolism, age-related macular degeneration, retinal detachment …etc.

The ophthalmic ultrasound

Principle ： Utilize ultrasonic reflection to inspect the structure of the eyeball.

1. To check inner eyeball and some intra-orbital pathological changes.

2. Suitable for detecting retrobulbar orbital lesions and ocular disorders that can not be checked directly.

Pachymeter

Principle ： Utilize ultrasound to measure the thickness of cornea.

1. Can be used to screen for refractive surgery.

2. Assesses the cornea endothelial cell function indirectly.
