Examination using a Goldman lens is conducted for the purpose of detailed inspection of the retina and internal eye media (if there are no changes in the fundus, it is performed once).
This examination requires the dilatation of the pupils, which will persist for 3-4 hours. Preparation for the examination will take 20-30 minutes; the examination itself takes 15 to 30 minutes.
It is generally recommended for children over seven years of age.
