I just passed my NCLE contact lens exam written and NCLE practical. I couldn’t have done it without your videos! over half my NCLE for WA state practical test was slit lamp. Without your videos I wouldn’t have had anyone showing me what to do or how to use it. I can’t thank you enough truly!!!

Thank you for your video Dr Patel! Very helpful, I’m currently training for Ophthalmic Assistant and really looking forward to practice and continue to get more familiar with the slit lamp. 👍🏼
@@EYESurgeon Hi Dr please help! I keep getting a sensation of something in the inner corner of one eye, it actually feels like its alive ( l kid you not). I have had 2 examinations at the opticians inc some sort of dye and they've thrown up nothing. Do you have any idea what this could be or what l could do next? I've used the blepharitis wipes and eye lubricant and they have not worked,
Thanks to your video now all I have to do is complete my last 600 out of 6,000 working hours and I will be a licensed optician. I am so thank I found your videos I couldn’t have passed my NCLE tests without them thank you so much!
Fantastic video 👏👏👏👏I think you speak so clearly and your presentation is very good.. Keep it up 👍.. I have been an Eye Care professional for the past 25 years.. I am impressed.. Hats off to you ..💐
Sir I have few queries 1. when u put that fluorescin dye inside the eye of pt and visualised under the cobalt blue filter.. I cud see the margins of eye became green. Why was it so. 2. Who is an observer in slit lamp examination ( it was written there observor or teaching eyepiece) 3. And sir it is a dark room procedure can we even perform it in a well lit room like u did. And everything was easily visible.
1. You will also see hyperfluorescence in areas where the dye pools - such at at the eyelid margins and in conjunctival folds. 2. Observer looking through a teaching eye piece is simply an extra eye piece enabling someone else visualise the examination. 3. A dimly lit room is preferred- the lights are on for teaching purposes for this video. Hope that helps 👌
I don't understand how you get the second beam to examine the cornea, does it just come with you swing the light source to the side and make it tall and narrow?
I am living in south america, I had an appoiment with an ophthalmologist, he dilated my pupils and made me fundus, I went only for a simple consultation because I am 40 now and my wife advised me for a complete vision study, 4 days after the consultation I still saw blurry, So I went to visit another ophthalmologist to ask him what was wrong in the consultation he puts into my eyes an orange drops to tint them and he examined me with the slit lamp. He also told me that everithing was right but my condition worsened because by the afternoon I saw more blurred, it is difficult for me to see and even more when I look away and before the consultation I was fine, now it is 20 days since I have been like this, maybe you think that there was mismanagement of the slit lamps with maximum lights. I am very distressed I hope you can answer me. Blessings
Sir I have a question sir, Latest lasik version is EPI HDV 2.0, can it be detected in this slit lamp examination or can this lasik be detected in dilated fundus test. It is regarding Indian Railways medical test. Please reply sir.
@@EYESurgeon Sir actually I want to know that if I have undergone flapless lasik surgery like EPI HDV 2.0, and my medical exam is after 3 months, can this surgery be detected using slit lamp or fundoscopy. Please reply
@@EYESurgeon can it be detectable by methods? I want to go for laser surgery for power -2.5 for govt jobs. They mentioned that laser surgery is not allowed . But some people who already done laser surgery said that they didnt detected and got into job, is this true sir?
@@johnparks6936 It didn't make sense to me either I thought I get your professional take I am just concerned if the combination of lighting from ophthalmoscope and Slit Lamp can damage my eye sight during a test?
@@citizenm9590 The lights used in ophthalmic instruments such as slit lamps and opthalmoscopes are not powerful enough to damage your vision. It is equivalent to what you would experience when looking into a torch/flashlight - there is no risk of damage to your eyes.
@@johnparks6936 Thanks a lot I did an eye examination test and my right eye feels irritated from my examination and it's been 3 days now. I was wondering if the combination of them using ophthalmoscope and Slit Lamp at the same time causing my eye issue since I didn't have this issue before the test. Do you know what might cause an eye issue after the examination if the lights in the slit lamps and opthalmoscopes are safe?
@@citizenm9590 They probably put some dilating drops in your eyes during the examination which are known to cause dryness and irritation in some people. I would say try some over the counter artificial tears and hot compresses to see if that helps.
