Who needs fundus examination?

Fundus examination is a very important examination in ophthalmic examination. Fundus examination can find many ophthalmic diseases in time, such as optic neuropathy and retinopathy, and can be treated early if found early. So, who needs fundus examination? Generally speaking, the following five categories of people should have regular fundus examinations:

1, patients with essential hypertension. Because the aggravation of hypertension will affect the health of retinal blood vessels, especially arterial blood vessels, it will also cause arteriosclerosis, retinal edema, bleeding and exudation, leading to optic papillopathy, so patients with essential hypertension need regular fundus examination.

2. Diabetic patients. After the aggravation of diabetes, the retina will also be implicated, and patients with advanced diabetes are more prone to complications such as retinopathy. If they are not treated in time, they may be completely blind. Regular fundus examination can find the condition in time and make diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible.

3. Patients with nephritis. Nephritis can cause slight changes in retinal blood vessels, causing vitreous opacity and fundus hemorrhage, so patients with nephritis should also have regular fundus examination.

4. Patients with nervous system diseases. Especially for patients with brain diseases, regular fundus examination can understand the changes of optic papilla, not only the health of eyes, but also help diagnose various intracranial diseases.

People over 5.55 years old. The probability of macular degeneration will increase in people over 55 years old, so it is recommended that the elderly over 55 years old have a fundus examination every year.

These are the five groups of people who need regular fundus examination today. I hope everyone can pay attention to it after reading it. Finally, I would like to remind everyone that we should not only go to the hospital regularly for fundus examination, but also pay attention to eye care measures in our lives, such as avoiding eye fatigue and arranging diet reasonably, so as to better reduce the occurrence of fundus lesions.
