Lissamine Green / Rose Bengal Staining
Lissamine Green and Rose Bengal Staining are diagnostic tests available at Desai Eye Hospital to evaluate the health of the ocular surface and detect dry eye syndrome or other corneal and conjunctival abnormalities. These stains help identify damaged or unhealthy cells on the eye’s surface, which are often associated with conditions like keratoconjunctivitis sicca, meibomian gland dysfunction, and ocular surface disorders.
During the procedure, a small amount of Lissamine Green or Rose Bengal dye is applied to the eye. These dyes highlight areas of damage or dryness on the conjunctiva and cornea. Using a slit lamp microscope, the ophthalmologist examines the eye to assess the extent of cell damage and tear film stability.
The test is quick, taking just a few minutes, and is completely painless. At Desai Eye Hospital, our specialists use these staining techniques to provide accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment plans for better eye health.
