  • Visual acuity measurements to determine how much central vision has been affected
  • Refraction to determine if a new eyeglass prescription is needed
  • Evaluation of the ocular structures, including the evaluation of the retina through a dilated pupil
  • Measurement of the pressure within the eye
  • Optical Coherence Tomography to document current status of the retina
  • Fluorescein angiography to evaluate abnormal blood vessel growth
