OPHTALMOLOGY, ELDERLY PERSON


Photo essay at Pierre de Bresse (Burgundy, France) in an itinerant truck for the free screening of diabetic retinopathy. The truck visits small towns of Bourgogne, France where there are no ophtalmologists. All diabetic patients who do not have a regular ophtalmological follow-up can come to benefit of the screening. An orthoptist undertakes the ophtalmological examinations : examination of the fundus oculi thanks to a non mydriatic fundus camera and an examination to measure the intra-ocular pressure (screening of a glaucoma) thanks to a tonometer.
