Slit Lamp Exam (Video)
Here is a humourous, 24-minute guide to the slit-lamp eye exam. From constructing a microscope, positioning your patient, to the anterior SLE exam itself … it’s all covered here. Enjoy!
length: 24 minutes
SCREEN SHOTS FROM THIS VIDEO LECTURE:
(comments below)
 
The lecture begins by examining the slit lamp and physically constructing a
microscope.
 
We then continue by familiarizing ourselves with the slit lamp controls and
learning to position our patient.
 
A "model eye" is used to demonstrate the 8 anterior eye structures
we look for.
 
The cross-section of the lens and vitreous are explained.
 
Live eyes are then used to demonstrate advanced exam technique.
 
The blue filter and fluorescein are explained, as is the theory behind applanation
tonometry.
 
The green (red-free) filter is used to detect red blood cells floating in the
aqueous.

Thanks so much Dr. Root, again an excellent instructional video. I appreciate it a lot. I use your videos almost everyday to show my patients about their conditions, and personally to learn the different techniques and illuminations in the slit lamp. Regards.

Why don’t you have a imbeded player on the site. So that we could take part of the vidoes directly instead of downloading them ?
Editor: Markus, there IS an embedded player on this page - a Vimeo video, actually. If you can’t see the lecture without downloading, there may be something wrong with your computer, flash, or your network is blocking video sites like Vimeo, Youtube, etc..
