Professional diagnosis of eye diseases is very important nowadays, as vision is an integral part of health, necessary for a full perception of the world. Eye diseases are given great importance abroad, especially in Israel.

Retinal angiography is an X-ray contrast method for examining the eyes. The essence of the technique is that a contrast agent is injected into a vein, allowing doctors to see the vessels of interest in the image. The examination takes only a few minutes, and after a couple of hours, the contrast agent is eliminated from the body without causing any harm. The advantage of this diagnostic procedure is that it does not require special preparation of the patient before the examination.

Retinal angiography begins with the injection of a special dye into a vein in the arm, usually indocyanine or fluorescein. Then, several images of the fundus are taken. Before starting the retinal angiography, a dilating agent is instilled into the eye. Patients may experience blurred vision and increased light sensitivity for a few hours, but this passes afterward.

Ophthalmology in Israel has currently reached a very high level, and it is no coincidence that it is considered one of the best in the world. The method of retinal angiography performed at the Top Ihilov clinic helps to detect diseases such as atherosclerosis, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration at an early stage of development, when there is a deterioration of blood flow in the vessels of the fundus. Thanks to the vast experience of the doctors, patients from different countries can receive examinations at a highly professional level and forget about eye diseases for a long time.
