1. HEPATITIS B CORE
The Hepatitis B Core Antibody Test detects antibodies against the core antigen of Hepatitis B virus, indicating past or current infection.
The test is used to diagnose Hepatitis B infection, assess immune response, and guide further testing.
No special preparation is needed. You can eat and drink normally. Inform your healthcare provider about any medications or recent health issues.
Results are typically available within 1 to 2 days after the test.
A positive result indicates past or current exposure to Hepatitis B virus. It may require further testing to determine the infection stage and appropriate management.
2. Ophtalmology
Ophthalmologists treat a wide range of conditions including cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and refractive errors like nearsightedness and farsightedness.
Adults should have a comprehensive eye exam at least once every two years, or more frequently if advised by your eye doctor based on your age, health, and risk factors.
Signs include blurred vision, difficulty seeing objects up close or far away, frequent headaches, eye strain, and squinting.
An eye exam involves tests for visual acuity, assessment of eye muscle function, pupil response, and examination of the retina and optic nerve. It may include dilation to allow a better view of the back of the eye.
Regular eye exams, maintaining a healthy diet rich in antioxidants, protecting your eyes from UV rays with sunglasses, and avoiding smoking can help reduce the risk of eye diseases.
3. BT CT
The BT CT Test measures bleeding time and clotting time to assess the blood’s clotting ability.
No, fasting is not required. You can eat and drink normally before the test.
A healthcare provider makes a small incision on your skin to measure bleeding time and tests how long it takes for your blood to clot in a tube.
The BT CT Test helps diagnose bleeding disorders like haemophilia and clotting disorders such as thrombocytopenia.
The BT CT Test involves minimal risks, such as minor bleeding or bruising at the site of the incision.
