Amslers grid for hydroxychloroquine
How is amsler’s grid to be used?
- Use the chart at eye level in a well-lit area.
- Place the chart at an arms length from your eyes.
- Wear your reading glasses if you use them to read.
- Cover one eye and test the other, uncovered eye.
- Keep bringing the grid towards you with your sight fixed on the dot at the center.
- Test the other eye using the same technique.
- See your Rheumatologist/ Ophthalmologist if any lines or squares on the Amsler Grid look wavy, blurred, fuzzy, or missing as observed with either eye during the test.
