Eye consultation
The ophthalmologist (ophthalmologist) diagnoses and treats eye complaints and conditions. During a consultation, symptoms such as blurred vision, pain, redness, watering eyes or reduced vision are examined. In addition, eye diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts or retinal abnormalities can be detected. A comprehensive eye examination uses specialised equipment for accurate assessment.

When is an eye consultation recommended?
Do you notice changes in your vision, such as blurred vision, pain, redness, or noticing spots or flashes of light? A consultation with an ophthalmologist can help assess these symptoms and initiate appropriate treatment. Regular eye checks are important to detect eye diseases early and prevent serious complications, such as:
Cataracts (cataracts) - Progressive clouding of the eye lens, leading to blurred vision and reduced contrast perception.Glaucoma - Increased eye pressure that can damage the optic nerve and lead to permanent vision loss without treatment.Macular degeneration - Affection of the central part of the retina, reducing central vision.Retinal detachment - Sudden flashes of light, floating spots or a shadow in the visual field may indicate a retinal detachment, a medically urgent situation.Eye infections and inflammations - Red, sore eyes with discharge may indicate an infection that requires medical treatment.Double vision or squinting - Disorders in the eye muscles or nerves can lead to double vision or eye position abnormalities.
Take care of your eyes and get them checked on time
Many eye diseases develop slowly and often cause no noticeable symptoms at first. Early detection is crucial, as these conditions are easily treatable at an early stage. Regular eye examinations are therefore important, especially with risk factors such as diabetes, high blood pressure, hereditary eye diseases or age over 40.Preventive checkups at the ophthalmologist allow for timely detection of eye diseases and significantly reduce the risk of permanent damage or vision loss.
What can you expect during an ophthalmology consultation?
1. Intake & Anamnesis
An eye consultation starts with an intake interview. The ophthalmologist takes stock of your symptoms, changes in vision, medical history, any hereditary eye diseases and medication use. In this way, a complete picture of your general and visual health is formed.
2. Examining the eyes
Depending on your symptoms, the ophthalmologist performs various clinical and technical examinations. These may include measurement of eye pressure, visual acuity tests, retinal examinations or OCT scans. These examinations support early detection of conditions such as glaucoma, cataracts or retinal problems.
3. Results
After the examination, the ophthalmologist will discuss the findings with you. If necessary, a diagnosis is made and a treatment plan is suggested, for example medication, follow-up examination or a referral for surgery. The medical report is made available in your eHealth or CoZo file.
