Overview
Other diagnostic studies associated with uveitis include slit lamp test, dilated fundus exam, and ocular tonometry.
Other Diagnostic Studies
Other diagnostic studies associated with uveitis include slit lamp test, dilated fundus exam, and ocular tonometry. Slit lamp test and dilated fundus exam are considered the gold standard for diagnosing uveitis with a XX% sensitivity and XX% specificity. Findings on these diagnostic studies include:
Slit Lamp Test
Dilated Fundus Exam
Ocular Tonometry
On ocular tonometry, findings associated with uveitis may include:
- Decreased intraocular pressure (IOP) in acute anterior uveitis
- Increased intraocular pressure (IOP) in chronic anterior uveitis, intermediate, posterior, or pan uveitis
