| Description | A fundus examination is essential for evaluating the macula, retina, nerve fiber layer, and optic nerve. This can be performed by several methods, including direct ophthalmoscopy and indirect ophthalmoscopy with a 20-diopter handheld lens. Examination of the macula with a 78- or 90-diopter handheld lens or a corneal contact lens viewed through a slit lamp may identify the cause of visual loss as being fromretinal dysfunction rather than neuro-ophthalmologic disease. |
