Undilated Refraction
Undilated refraction, also known as non-cycloplegic refraction, is a common method used in routine eye examinations. During this process, your eyes are not dilated, and the optometrist evaluates your visual acuity and prescribes corrective lenses based on your current eye condition. Undilated refraction is generally quicker and is often used for standard vision assessments.
Dilated refraction involves the use of dilating eye drops to enlarge the pupils, allowing for a more comprehensive examination of the eye’s internal structures. This method is typically employed when the optometrist needs a better view of the retina, optic nerve, and other critical structures within the eye. Dilated refraction is particularly valuable in diagnosing and monitoring eye diseases and conditions such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration.
