Thanks for the videos😊As an Optometrist we were taught to use the Target dial to look for eccentric fixation as well by asking the px to fokus directly in the centre of the circle and then check where the macula is situated.
Well explained, Sir! It has helped understanding the examination procedures in details, and it will definitely help us in our exams as well! Thank you sir!
You can locate macula one of two ways. Either 1. Get the patient to look directly at your ophthalmoscope light which should place their macula in view. Or 2. Scan from the optic disc to the macula by moving temporally and slightly inferiorly. You may find that switching to the smallest aperture helps, since the macula region is so sensitive the large aperture will cause the pupil to constrict and make viewing more difficult. Also remember that a healthy macula is fairly featureless aside from perhaps some extra pigment and the foveal reflex but you won't see these in everybody which makes it harder to know when you're truly at the macula at all!
