General eye examination
Every pet receives a detailed evaluation of the visual system function and examination of the front and back part of the eye, eyelids, and orbit during each eye examination.
Eyelids and the front part of the eye (cornea, anterior chamber, lens) are evaluated with a very specialized microscope (slit lamp biomicroscope), while the back part of the eye (vitreous, retina, optic nerve) is evaluated with the special optical instrument called an indirect ophthalmoscope.
