[Routine examination in mydriasis].
The hospital of Bruneck in South Tyrol has had an Eye Consultant from the University Eye Clinic in Innsbruck for more than two years. The examination carried out in the eye department of the Bruneck hospital includes routine ophthalmoscopy of the fundus periphery to detect early retinal degenerations and thus prevent retinal detachment. In almost 5,000 cases (both in- and outpatients) seen during 1981 changes in the fundus periphery were detected and treated in 5.5%. The importance of screening with routine examination by indirect ophthalmoscopy to detect retinal degeneration or early detachment is emphasized.
