Most people think an eye check-up simply means “reading letters on a board.”
But at Sunayan Eye Care, a detailed eye examination is a journey through the health of your vision, using advanced diagnostic equipment—especially the slit-lamp.
This blog takes you behind the scenes, so you know exactly what to expect during your visit.
👁 What is a Slit-Lamp?
A slit-lamp is a high-precision microscope used by ophthalmologists to examine:
cornea
iris
lens
retina
optic nerve
It helps detect early signs of eye diseases long before symptoms appear.
🕒 Step-by-Step: What Actually Happens During Your Eye Exam
1. Vision Test
Your visit starts with a vision clarity check:
distance vision
near vision
refractive error
glasses power
This helps us understand how your eyes are performing.
2. Eye Pressure Measurement
This helps in detecting glaucoma, a silent condition that slowly damages eyesight without warning.
3. Slit-Lamp Examination (The Main Part!)
You’ll be seated comfortably in front of the device.
Your doctor will gently guide your head and ask you to look straight ahead.
What we check here:
dryness level
corneal surface
infection or inflammation
cataract
lens clarity
retina changes
This is painless, safe, and extremely important.
4. Detailed Discussion
Once the examination is complete, we explain:
findings
eye condition
required treatment (if any)
recommended glasses
lifestyle suggestions
You leave with clarity and confidence.
🌟 Why is This Examination Important?
Because many eye diseases show zero symptoms early on:
diabetic retinopathy
glaucoma
cataract
macular degeneration
dryness
A slit-lamp helps detect them early—before they affect your sight permanently.
