Patient's question:
Premature birth, 32 weeks. Currently born 50 days ago, want to do a fundus examination. Physical development is normal, eyes have a response to light stimulation.Doctor's answer:
Analysis of the condition: Hello! An indirect ophthalmoscope examination is not painful, as it does not require contact with the child's eye.Recommendations: However, it should be considered whether the child is cooperative or not. Moreover, to better and more broadly examine the condition of the retina, it is advisable to use medication to dilate the pupils (which generally has no significant effect on children's eyes). It is recommended that you seek an examination from an experienced ophthalmologist at a professional hospital.
