Diagnosis Besides checking on family and medical history for inherited eye problems such as retinal degeneration, optic atrophy, certain types of strabismus (ocular misalignment) and eye malformations; diagnostic test for identifying the ophthalmologic disorders includes: • Corneal topography for mapping cornea through computer imaging n subsequent analysis. • Use of keratometer to test structural degeneration of cornea for Keratoconous. • Slit-lamp examination and fluorescein instillation for corneal abrasions. • Optical coherence tomography (OCT) for finding macular hole in retina. • Employing ophthalmoscope and ultrasound imaging to check retinal detachment. Treatment procedures involves • Trabeculectomy for glaucoma. • Replacing intraocular lens for clear visionincataract. • Corneal Transplantation Surgery in severe keratoconus, Fuchs'
