I have -7 diopters in both eyes and haven't been to the ophthalmologist in a while (I'm in my early 30s). I went to the doctor today and was scheduled for a separate retinal exam in two weeks. What can I expect? (I googled it, but wanted to ask the question here anyway.)
-Does something like that hurt?
-Is it always the case that I am no longer allowed to drive a car after this?
-How does this usually work?

Loading...Good evening, I had contact lenses fitted earlier, and during the eye examination, the optician informed me about something with the contact lenses and said that since I have astigmatism, there's something wrong with it. (I've forgotten the context and the words; I was very nervous.) When I google it, I don't get any wiser,…
When I look into very bright and shining eyes, my eyes start to burn a little and my eyes become a little moist. Why is this happening to me?
I've already been to the doctor, it's just my decision. I'm not allowed to dive, and I might lose my hearing when I get older, around 60. But I'm not in pain. I'll just have to have anesthesia for the surgery.
Help, I burned myself on the hot stove and it hurts like hell when I let my arm hang down or touch it. Should I see a doctor? Are there any home remedies I can use before I see a doctor? And does it look particularly bad?
For the exact examination of the retina also looked through the iris and the lens as well as the glass body on the retina – that only works if the Iris wide open is.
This is achieved with drugs (drops) based on pseudo-adrenalin. In addition, the lens is completely “released” and the moving Ziliarmuskel, in order to be able to measure the lens correctly even independently of your physical reactions.
These drugs are re-degraded in a few hours, only after that the iris and the lens are again functional.
This means you’re set to “infinitely” – you can’t even pull a ticket at the ticket machine, you should know. In addition, “the eye is quite open” (actually the iris), so that you are extremely blinded now in the summer.
So: Assistant take along, strong sunglasses take the ticket in advance and do not participate in the road traffic with anything that has wheels.
Good luck!
