Gonioscopy – Examines the Anterior Chamber Angle
Gonioscopy is a specialized diagnostic procedure available at Desai Eye Hospital to assess the anterior chamber angle of the eye. This test helps in diagnosing and managing glaucoma by evaluating whether the drainage angle, where fluid exits the eye, is open or blocked. It is crucial in detecting conditions such as angle-closure glaucoma, pigment dispersion syndrome, and other abnormalities affecting intraocular pressure.
During the procedure, a special gonioscopy lens is gently placed on the eye after applying numbing drops. The ophthalmologist uses a slit lamp microscope to examine the drainage angle and determine if fluid is flowing properly. This helps in identifying blockages or structural issues contributing to increased eye pressure.
The test is quick, taking about 5-10 minutes, and is completely painless. At Desai Eye Hospital, our specialists use gonioscopy for early glaucoma detection and precise treatment planning to protect vision.
