Indirect ophthalmoscopy Flashcards
Compare the magnification and FOV of indirect and direct opthalmoscopy?
Indirect ophthalmoscopy:
magnification= x2 - x5
FOV= 25º - 45º
Direct opthalmoscopy:
mag= x15
FOV= 10º (2 disc diameters)
state all 6 factor affecting indirect ophthalmoscopy?
1- distance between the patient and lens 2- distance between the observer and lens 3- pupil size 4- Ammetropia 5-lens power 6- diameter of condensing lens
state two monocular indirect ophthalmoscopy techniques used?
pan optic
keeler
Monocular indirect ophthalmoscopy produces what kind of an image?
real and erect and no stereopsis
what is the FOV , WD and mag in monocular indirect ophthalmoscopy?
FOV = 15º
lower mag= x5
True or false:
a special condensing lens is not required for Monocular indirect Op.
true
describe the procedure of Pan Optic technique (include FOV and WD )
- monocular
- Greater FOV than Direct Op.
- Greater WD
- Same as direct Op, bring eyecup into contact with patient, compress eyecup halfway to achieve maximum view.
what is the field of view using the Keeler Wide angle device ?
FOV is x10 larger
What is an aerial image and how is it produced and by what technique?
- Binocular indirect Op. produces an aerial image between the patient and examiner.
- Light from illumination system is reflected off the retina and converged by a condensing lens to produce an aerial image
Describe the image produced by Binocular indirect Op.
Real, magnified, inverted and laterally reversed aerial image.
what is the range of the condensing power lens used during binocular indirect Op.
+14D to +90D
What is the general rule involving power, mag, lens diameter and FOV?
the higher the power, the lower the mag, the lower the lens diameter and greater the FOV.
where is the optic disc positioned relative to the macula?
optic disc is nasal.
Macula is always temporal (towards ears)
State the mag, FOV, power of condensing lens, image and procedure of the binocular indirect headset technique in indirect Op.
- x2.5 Magnification (depends on lens)
- 30º FOV
- Power of condensing lens varies from +30D to +14D, +20D is most common
- Image is real, inverted, laterally reversed and stereoscopic view.
- Procedure: Set up headband, accounting pupil size and refractive error. Hold condensing infant of patients’ eye and pull lens back until fundus image fills in. There are 8 positions and remember inversion.
when should we use the binocular indirect headset?
- poor direct view with direct ophthalmoscope.
- for a stereoscopic view
- To see whole fundus- diabetics, young children
